Nusantara Awakening Party (Indonesian : Partai Kebangkitan Nusantara, PKN) is a political party in Indonesia founded on January 7, 2022, and received legal recognition from the Ministry of Law and Human Rights in January 2022.

Contents

The party was founded by former Democratic Party legislator I Gede Pasek Suardika, who became the first party head, along with other expelled cadres. The party was established by taking over a minor party [ broken anchor ], the Functional Party of Struggle (Partai Karya Perjuangan), which had been inactive after failing to participate in elections. [1]

The party qualified to participate in 2024 Indonesian general election, along with four other new parties, after fulfilling administrative criteria and actual verification by the KPU RI in December 2022. [2]

History

The party was established by former members of the Democratic Party who remained loyal to former chairman Anas Urbaningrum, who left the party and had since been imprisoned on corruption charges. The party was initiated by former legislator I Gede Pasek Suardika, who was joined by former Democratic Party cadre Ian Zulfikar, HMI activist Asral Hardi, journalist and photographer Bobby Triadi, and Sri Mulyono.

The party was declared on 28 October 2021—coinciding with the Youth Pledge Day—at the final Functional Struggle Party congress, where it was transformed to Nusantara Awakening Party through changes on the party constitution. [1] The party quickly registered the change to the Ministry of Law and Human Rights, and was recognised on 7 January 2022. [3]

Anas himself participated in the party founding by giving advise and suggestions to its initiators, including Suardika. He later endorsed the party founding despite not giving the time of when to join the party. [4] In February 2023, Suardika promised that Anas will be given a high-ranking position in the party after the end of his prison term expected April 2023. [5] On 14 July 2023, Suardika handed over the chairmanship to Anas. [6] Suardika became chairman of the party's executive committee ("Majelis Agung"). [7]
