 FreeLists / nasional_list / [nasional_list] [ppiindia] The mystification of the unitary state of Indonesia
Indonesia, in contrast with the neighboring state of Malaysia, was born as a nation with a strong sentiment of civic nationalism.
"Indonesia", an obscure Greek word first coined by G.W. Earl and J.R. Logan in their articles written in 1850, was subsequently used by a progressive student organization in the Netherlands and became an important symbol of nationalism and a rallying slogan for nationalist leaders in the struggle for independence.
Political life in the fifties and early sixties shows the continuation of trans-ethnic based parties and the importance of civil society in Indonesia.

 The Jakarta Post - The Journal of Indonesia Today
A women's rights group vowed on Friday to campaign for the boycott of political parties that refused to implement the 30 percent quota for women legislative candidates in the upcoming general election.
The newly endorsed election bill urged political parties to allocate up to 30 percent of their legislative candidates for women, as part of an affirmative action effort aimed at boosting women's political role in the country.
Under the newly endorsed Election Law No. 65/2003, political parties are urged to include the 30 percent women legislative candidates in their total number of candidates.

 United Development Party - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
It is seen as a moderate Islamic party, and is led by Hamzah Haz, who served as Vice President of Indonesia from 2001 to 2004.
PPP was thus formed as a loose coalition of the four major Islamic parties in the country at the time, Nahdatul Ulama, Muslim Party of Indonesia (PMI), the Islamic Association Party of Indonesia and the Islamic Educational Movement.
Despite this formal merging of the parties, internal PPP politics under the Suharto government were dominated by the differing priorities of the original groups that formed the party.

 FreeLists / nasional_list / [nasional_list] [ppiindia] The decline of political Islam in Indonesia
The party's "clean and caring" campaign message struck a chord with many voters who had already grown tired of the ineffectiveness of Indonesia's better-known political parties, including former president Suharto's old guard Golkar, former president Megawati Sukarnoputri's Indonesian Democratic Party for Struggle, or PDI-P, and former president Abdurrahman Wahid's National Awakening Party, or PKB.
Widespread perceptions that the party is consumed with internal disputes and petty power struggles have greatly undermined the party's credentials for affecting political, economic and social change.
A spiraling internal dispute between the party's non-secular members, who control the spirit and core of the party, and a smaller, more moderate secular faction that joined after becoming disenchanted with the corruption in other political parties, threatens to derail its future election hopes.

During the forum, Golkar Party legislator Eka Komariah criticized the nation's major political parties, which she said had shown little commitment to encouraging more women to participate as lawmakers.
Despite many parties mentioning affirmative action in their campaigns, the recent laws on elections and on political parties failed to make quotas mandatory for women, she said.
Earlier, meeting organizer Eka had said political parties' reluctance to improve the position of women had a lot to do with the country's patriarchal culture and the poor positions of most women in the country.

It was hoped that this would help to push the development of political parties in a healthy direction of competing on the basis of ideas rather than on the basis of the numerous ethnic, cultural, religious, and linguistic schisms.
Finally, Megawati Soekarnoputri assumed the presidency, the position her party believed was her due as a result of PDI Perjuangan's plurality of the vote in the general election.
The main thrust of her party's promises in 1999 was reform, "reforms that are substantial and fundamental, as demanded by the people." Megawati made it clear in interviews that the reform had to be gradual because of Indonesia's social fragility; but reform, even if gradual, still leads to fundamental change.
