YOGYAKARTA The Confederation of All Indonesian Trade Unions (KSPSI) stated that it would go far to support the Governor of Central Java Ganjar Pranowo as a presidential candidate.
KSPI President Andi Gani Nena Wea claims that many labor organizations under KSPI will support Ganjar in the 2024 presidential election.
"KSPI as the largest labor confederation in Indonesia will all out to support Pak Ganjar Pranowo," said Andi when he was about to meet Ganjar at the Central Java Provincial Government Representative Office in the Kebayoran area, Jakarta, Monday, May 1, 2023.
Andi explained that the strength of workers in Indonesia is very large. From the survey results, there are 55 million workers in Indonesia and 7.8 million migrant workers. If multiplied by their partner, the number is very large.
"So we are optimistic that we will win Pak Ganjar. We have won the election three times. One DKI gubernatorial election with Pak Jokowi, then the 2014 and 2019 presidential elections, a hat trick," said Andi.

KSPI Profile
The Confederation of All Indonesian Workers Serkat (KSPI) is the center of the national trade union in Indonesia.
Quoted from the official KSPSI website, the establishment of KSPI began with the declaration of the All-Indonesian Labor Federation (FBSI) on February 20, 1973. At that time, the FBSI was chaired by Agus Sudono.
In the early days, FBSI membership consisted of 21 labor unions, 21 labor unions (central labor unions) that were integrated and organized into 21 sectoral Employment Labor Unions (SBLP).
In 1984, FBSI together with labor organizations throughout ASEAN established the ASEAN Trade Union Council (AtUC). This is a exchange forum for information, experience, and cooperation between series
As an organization, FBSI experienced ups and downs. In 1984, FBSI together with labor organizations throughout ASEAN established the ASEAN Trade Union Council (ATUC). This is a confederation of ASEAN labor unions that focuses on education, advocacy, labor protection, and welfare.
On 23-30 November 1985, the FBSI under the leadership of Imam Soedarwo held the II congress. The results of the congress agreed on several fundamental changes, including:
However, the change in organizational form to unitary was opposed by international worker organizations because they were considered to be restricting freedom of association.
Then, at the III SPSI National Conference which was held in November 1990, SPSI decided to develop and increase the role and function of 9 Departments to 13 Sectors, each of which met the Chair and Secretary elected through the III SPSI National Conference.
This change does not change the form of the unitary organization he and still has not returned freedom to the labor organization that is part of it. This is shown by the absence of the Articles of Association/Household Budget (AD/ART) to be changed to Basic Regulations/Household Regulations (PD/PRT)
In 1994, SPSI chaired by Bomer Pasaribu reformed and restructured the organization, including:
When President Soeharto stepped down in May 1998, the push to make changes in the employment sector was getting bigger.
Therefore, ahead of the conference of the International Labor Organization (ILO) in June 1998, the government revoked the Ministerial Decree No. 45 on SPSI registration and replaced it with the Ministerial Decree No. 5 of 1998 which allowed the establishment of a Trade Union outside the SPSI.
In addition, the government also ratifies the ILO Convention on Freedom of Certification and the protection of the right to organization, with Presidential Decree No. 83 of 1998.
In the 2000 FSPI Leadership Deliberation, there was a change in the form of an organization from the FSPSI to the Confederation of All Indonesian Workers Unions (KSPSI).
This change was made because the form of a confederation organization was accommodated in Law Number 21 of 2000 concerning Labor Unions/Labor Unions. The law mandates the forms of worker organizations, including the Confederation, Federation and Trade Unions.
