PDIP History: Kudatuli Event Becomes A Witness

PDIP History (PDIP Chairman Megawati Soekarnoputri/DOKUMENTATION BETWEEN)

YOGYAKARTA - The Indonesian Democratic Party of Struggle (PDIP) is a political party in Indonesia. PDIP's history can be traced starting from the Indonesian National Party (PNI) founded by Ir Sukarno on July 4, 1927.

PNI joins the Many People's Consultative Party (Partai Murba), the Indonesian Independence Supporters Association (IPKI), the Indonesian Christian Party (Parkindo) and the Catholic Party. The joint party was later named the Indonesian Democratic Party (PDI) on January 10, 1973. What is the history of the PDIP like?

Since the beginning of birth, internal PDI disputes continue to occur and are exacerbated by intervention from the government.

To resolve the dispute, Ir Sukarno's second daughter, Megawati Sukarnoputri, was supported to become the general chairman (Ketum) of the PDI.

But Suharto's government did not approve of the support and then issued a ban on supporting Megawati Sukarnoputri's candidacy in the Extraordinary Congress (KLB) on December 2-6, 1993 at the Sukolilo Hajj Dormitory, Surabaya, East Java.

Launching from PDIPerjuangan Lampung.id, the ban was inversely proportional to the expectations of KLB participants, then de facto Megawati Sukarnoputri was named chairman of the PDI DPP for the period 1993-1998. So that at the National Conference (Munas) December 22-23 1993 in Jakarta, Megawati Sukarnoputri was confirmed as the chairman of the PDI Central Leadership Council (DPP) in a de jure manner.

The internal PDI dispute continued until the Congress was held on June 22-23, 1996 at the Medan Hajj Dormitory. On June 20, 1996, Megawati Sukarno Putri's supporters held demonstrations to fight with security forces guarding the congress.

Then on July 15, 1996 the Suharto government confirmed Suryadi as the chairman of the PDI DPP.

As a result, on July 27, 1996, supporters of Megawati Sukarnoputri held a Democracy Mimbar in the courtyard of the PDI DPP office, Diponegoro Street Number 58, Central Jakarta. Then a group with the red shirt of Suryadi's camp appeared, then there was a clash with Megawati Sukarnoputri's camp.

The moment was known to be the Duapuluh Tujuh riots in July or abbreviated as the Kudatuli Incident.

After that moment, PDI under the leadership of Suryadi only got 11 DPR seats. Because Suharto's government stepped down at the 1998 reforms, the PDI under the leadership of Megawati Sukarnoputri became stronger, and was regulated as chairman of the PDI DPP for the 1998-2003 period at the 7th Congress in Denpasar, Bali.

Megawati Sukarnoputri then changed the name of the PDI to PDI Perjuangan on February 1, 1999 in order to participate in the election. The name was inaugurated by Notary Rahmat Syamsul Rizal and was later declared on February 14, 1999 at Istora Senayan, Jakarta. PDI Perjuangan (PDIP) held Congress I on March 27-1 April 2000 at the Patra Jasa Hotel, Semarang, Central Java. The congress realized Megawati Sukarnoputri's decision as chairman of the PDIP DPP for the period 2000-2005. In the IV PDIP Congress in Bali on April 8-12 2015, Megawati Sukarno Putri was re-confirmed as chairman of PDIP for the 2015-2020 period.
