"We will announce the results of the administrative verification on September 14, in accordance with KPU Regulation Number 4 of 2022," he said
The seven political parties are the People's Party of Justice and Prosperity (Prima), the Labor Party, the Republican Party, the Ummat Party, the Republic of Indonesia Party, the Indonesian People's Swara Party (Parsindo), and the Republican Party One.
Prosperous People's Party (Prima)Officially established on July 20, 2020. It is Agus Jabo Priyono, the former Chairman of the People's Democratic Party for the 2015-2020 period who became the Chairman of the Prima Party.
The Prima Party, launched from its official website, was initiated by the People's Democratic Party (PRD) together with a number of social movements, labor unions, Islamic activists/leaders, small and medium businesses, professionals, women's activists, and young people.
Declaring itself as the party of the people. Unlike other parties in general, Prima was not born by a big figure. Prima was born from below, from the hands of ordinary people.
The Prima Party stated that it would strive to create a just and prosperous society, by presenting welfare politics and would become a party with a populist character.
"Prima, the party of ordinary people, was born in the midst of the violent vortex of the nation's life," said Agus Jabo at the declaration ceremony at the Usmar Ismail Film Center, Jakarta, June 1, 2021, quoted from Antara.
The chairman of the Prima Party Advisory Council is the former Main Secretary (Sestama) of the National Counter-Terrorism Agency (BNPT), Major General (Ret.) R. Gautama Wiranegara.
The Labor Party was built and re-established by its founders from the 4 largest trade union confederations and 50 national-level trade union federations, teacher forums and temporary workers, and the largest farmer and fisherman organization in Indonesia.
Declared on November 5, 2021. As the name implies, the constituents of this party are workers from various sectors. From those who work in companies to fishermen, farmers, domestic workers, public transportation drivers, pedicab drivers, vegetable traders, and street vendors.
As well as, MSME actors, multilevel marketing actors, rural poor communities, urban poor communities, young job seekers, students and students who will enter the world of work, band children, artists, sportsmen, and intellectuals and scholars who want to make this happen. the principle of the welfare state.
The President of the Labor Party is Said Iqbal who also serves as President of the Confederation of Indonesian Trade Unions (KSPI).
“The Labor Party is ready to participate in the legislative elections. We are optimistic that the Labor Party can pass the parliamentary threshold. This means that the labor party will have representatives in the DPR RI, DPRD at the provincial level and DPRD at the city district level," Said Iqbal told reporters some time ago.
Republican PartyLaunching Wikipedia, the Republican Party has been formed since May 21, 1998 and was a contestant in the 1999 General Election. The only votes obtained were the DPRD level in North Sumatra Province. Along the way, the Republican Party had experienced a vacuum because a number of party officials in 2004 actually formed the Democratic Party.
Then, in the 2011 election, party members unanimously appointed Marwah Daud Ibrahim as general chairman. The Republican Party registered itself as a participant in the 2014 General Election.
The Republican Party had management in 33 provinces and 421 regencies/cities at that time. Although declared to have passed the administrative verification, the Republican Party did not pass the factual verification by the KPU so it did not meet the requirements.
Feeling that the KPU's decision was considered full of fabrication and manipulation, the Republican Party filed a lawsuit up to the State Administrative High Court to prove the manipulation, and was again rejected. Finally, the Republican Party took the case to the Honorary Council for Election Organizers (DKPP). The KPU was found guilty of alleged manipulation during the factual verification process. Even though the KPU is guilty, the DKPP decision cannot cancel the KPU Decree (SK), so the Republican Party cannot participate in the 2014 election.
Likewise in the 2019 Election. However, currently the Secretary General of the Republican Party, Heru Bahtiar Arifin, is optimistic that his party can become a contestant in the 2024 Election.
"We are experienced enough. In sha Allah we will have no problems. So, we have entered everything. Yesterday (2019 Election) was less thorough, so now we are even more careful in filling out the administrative requirements. Our target is 5 percent of the seats in the DPR RI, the same is true for the regional level," he said at the KPU office, Friday (12/8).

Indonesian Republican PartyRamses David Simanjuntak is the general chairman of the party. Ramses is optimistic, even though it seems impossible, his party can win 30 percent of the vote if it participates in the 2024 election.
"The target for each party must be the biggest one. You have to be sure that the record will be broken. It is said that these are crazy ideas. But a nation must have children with crazy ideas. If there is nothing like that, what is expected for the nation in the future," he said Ramses told reporters at the KPU RI office, Jakarta, Monday (8/8).

"Parsindo hopes to be an alternative when other parties are less in favor of the people's interests," said Parsindo Chairman Jusuf Rizal, Friday (12/8).
