3 New Parties Registered for 2014 Elections

Three new political parties officially registered themselves on Monday to 
participate in the 2014 legislative and presidential polls, an official said. 

Asyari Sihabudin, the Justice and Human Rights Ministry's director of state 
administrative affairs, identified the latest additions to the political 
landscape as the National Unity Party, the National Democrat Party and the 
National Republic Party. 

Although the National Democrat Party used a similar logo as an organization 
founded by Golkar Party senior executive and media magnate Surya Paloh - the 
National Democrats (Nasdem) - the party registered Patrice Rio Capella as its 
chairman and Ahmad Rofik as its secretary general. 

"They will submit more documents to us before we further verify their status," 
Asyari said. 

The National Republic Party first moved into the spotlight on Friday when one 
of its senior executives, retired Maj. Gen. Edi Waluyo, said the party's 
founders had discussed the need for a new political party in Indonesia with the 
youngest son of longtime ruler Suharto, Hutomo "Tommy" Mandala Putra. 

The National Republic Party 's inaugural meeting in Jakarta that day was 
dominated by pictures of a sunglasses-wearing Tommy. 

Tommy's efforts to re-enter politics through the chairmanship of Golkar - which 
was long the political vehicle of his father - failed to materialize because of 
a lack of support in 2009. 

Nothing was immediately known of the other new party, the National Unity Party. 

A senior member of Paloh's National Democrats, Ferry Mursyidan Baldan, 
confirmed that Patrice and Rofik were members of the organization. 

Patrice ran as a legislative candidate for the National Mandate Party (PAN) 
during the last election, while Rofik is a former secretary general of the 
National Sun Party (PMB). 

However, the secretary general of Nasdem, Syamsul Muarif, said Paloh and his 
organization had nothing to do with the National Democrat Party 's official 
registration on Monday. 

"I have never signed any documents that are required to establish a new 
political party because the result of our national congress was clear - that 
Nasdem will not take part in the coming elections as a political party," 
Syamsul said. 

However, he added that Paloh and other Nasdem leaders never prohibited members 
of the organization from privately forming a new political party to contest the 
2014 elections. 

Almost half of the Nasdem membership wanted the organization to turn into a 
political party, he said. 

"They don't need our permission to use a similar name and symbol to register a 
new political party. Even though the name is similar to ours, [the party] is 
not our Nasdem," he said. 

Syamsul also stressed that it was impossible for Paloh, himself and the 
organization's other key officials to become members of the new political 
party. 

"We are still members of the Golkar Party. The law forbids anyone from being a 
member of two political parties at the same time," he said. 

Golkar secretary general Idrus Marham said he was not afraid the three new 
parties would threaten Golkar's stability. 

"Rather than thinking about them, it's better for us to focus on working for 
the people, implementing the policies the people expect from the government," 
Idrus said. 

However, Idrus warned any Golkar members planning to join new political parties 
to first resign from Golkar, as that was required by law.
