Indonesian presidential election, 2014

← 2009 July 9, 2014 2019 →

Incumbent President

Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono
Demokrat



The next Indonesian presidential election will be held in July 9th 2014. It will be Indonesia's third direct presidential election, and will elect a president for a five-year term. Incumbent president Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono is constitutionally barred from seeking a third term in office.[1][2] According to the 2008 election law, only parties or coalitions controlling 20% of DPR seats or winning 25% of the popular votes in the 2014 parliamentary elections will be eligible to nominate a candidate. This law is unlikely to be amended before the 2014 elections.[3]

Arrangements for the election

Arrangements for the conduct of elections in Indonesia are carried out under the supervision of the Indonesian Election Commission (Komisi Pemilihan Umum, or KPU).

The presidential elections in 2014 will be carried out in accordance with Law (Undang-undang) No 28 of 2008 about the election of a President and Vice President.

Voting system

Indonesia is working towards e-voting in the hope of implementing the new system in the 2014 general elections.[4] The basis of the e-voting system is electronic identity cards (e-KTP) which are expected to be ready by 2012 nation-wide, but have been tried in six districts/cities, namely Padang (West Sumatra), Denpasar (Bali), Jembrana (Bali), Yogyakarta (Java), Cilegon (West Java) and Makassar (South Sulawesi).[5]

Political parties

Candidates for president will be nominated as individuals (along with a vice-presidential running partner). However, support from the main political parties is likely to play a key role in influencing the result. Partly for this reason, the highly changeable map of political parties in Indonesia contributes to the uncertainty of political trends during 2013 and into 2014 in the run-up to the presidential election. In recent years, the number of political parties contesting major elections (both elections for the national and regional parliaments, and the presidential elections) has varied considerably.

  • In 2004, 24 parties contested the national elections and 16 secured enough seats to be represented in the national parliament.
  • In 2009, 38 parties contested the national elections and 9 secured enough seats to be represented in the national parliament.
  • In 2014, 12 parties will contest the national elections and three more have been authorised to run candidates in Aceh. (Brief details of the parties are listed at the relevant page on website of the Electoral Commission.) It is expected that candidates for president who hope to mount an effective campaign will need to secure the support of at least one of the major parties as well as several other smaller parties. Details of the twelve main national parties who qualified to mount nation-wide political campaigns are as follows:


SUMMARY DETAILS OF PARTIES REGISTERED FOR 2014 ELECTIONS (Nation-wide; excluding Aceh-only parties)

Main nationalist parties

Known as Party English name Comment and leading figures
PDIP Partai Demokrasi Indonesia Perjuangan Indonesian Democratic Party of Struggle Strong, well-established party; has been playing an oppositionist role during the SBY presidential period since 2004; believed to have a good chance of doing well in the presidential election if Governor Jokowi is nominated as the PDIP candidate for president
Leading figures: Megawati Sukarnoputri, Joko "Jokowi" Widodo
Presidential candidate: An announcement of the PDI-P nomination is expected either shortly before or shortly after the national legislative elections on 9 April[6]
Golkar Partai Golongan Karya Golkar Established during the Soeharto era; remains a strong, well-established party; although Aburizal Bakrie has already nominated as Golkar's presidential candidate (July 2012) there are well-publicised divisions within the party because some senior figures in the party are worried by Bakrie's relatively low standing in the polls[7]
Leading figures: Aburizal Bakrie (ARB), Akbar Tandjung
Presidential candidate: Aburizal Bakrie
PD Partai Demokrat Democratic Party Established to support the presidential bid of SBY in 2004; now in marked decline, struggling to establish a post-SBY identity and recently hit by series of corruption issues.[8]
Leading figures: Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono (SBY), Edhie Baskoro Yudhoyono
Presidential candidate: No candidate has been announced

Other smaller nationalist parties

Known as Party English name Comment and leading figures
Gerindra Partai Gerakan Indonesia Raya Great Indonesia Movement Party Likely to put forward Prabowo Subianto as a presidential candidate; However Gerindra will need to form a coalition with other parties in order to mount a credible presidential campaign
Leading figure: Prabowo Subianto
Presidential candidate: No candidate has been announced but many observers expect that Prabowo Subianto will be nominated
Hanura Partai Hati Nurani Rakyat People's Conscience Party Unlikely to play a major role; may be a minor party in a broader coalition
Leading figure: Wiranto
Presidential candidate: Wiranto, with media mogul Hary Tanoesoedibjo as his vice presidential partner[9]
NasDem Partai NasDem National Democratic Party Unlikely to play a major role; may be a minor party in a broader coalition
Leading figure: Surya Paloh
Presidential candidate: No candidate has been announced
PKPI Partai Keadilan dan Persatuan Indonesia Indonesian Justice and Unity Party A minor party so far; may play a small role in a broader coalition
Leading figure: Sutiyoso (Chair)
Presidential candidate:

Islamic-based parties

Known as Party English name Comment and leading figures
PAN Partai Amanat Nasional National Mandate Party Has attracted attention in the media because the party's most well-known figure, Hatta Rajasa, is the high-profile Coordinating Minister for Economic Affairs in the SBY cabinet; however the party has not been attracting strong support in polls
Leading figure: Hatta Rajasa
Presidential candidate: no candidate yet nominated.
PKB Partai Kebangkitan Bangsa National Awakening Party Struggling to attract support largely through relying on publicity generated by well-known public figures; reported to be delaying the nomination of a presidential candidate until after the national legislative elections in April 2014[10]
Leading figures: Muhaimin Iskandar, Mahfud MD
Presidential candidate: no candidate yet nominated.
PPP Partai Persatuan Pembangunan United Development Party A long-established Islamic party which has been striving with little success to establish an alliance of Islam-based parties before the 2014 polls; Party chair and Minister for Religious Affairs Suryadharma Ali has been nominated (October 2013) as the party's candidate for president[11]
Leading figures: Suryadharma Ali, Hasrul Aswar
Presidential candidate: Suryadharma Ali[12]
PKS Partai Keadilan Sejahtera Prosperous Justice Party One of the largest Islamic parties. PKS leaders formerly worked to promote an image as a party free of money politics. However recently well-known PKS figures have been caught up in much-publicised corruption scandals widely believed to have damaged the standing of the party.[13]
Leading figure: Anis Matta
Presidential candidate: no candidate yet nominated.
PBB Partai Bulan Bintang Crescent Star Party The PBB was able to qualify to contest the 2014 legilsative elections but has not attracted much support and remains one of the minor Islamic parties.
Leading figure: Yusril Ihza Mahendra
Presidential candidate: Yusril Ihza Mahendra [14]

Acehnese parties

The three local Acehnese parties authorised to contest the election in the province of Aceh are:

— Aceh Peace Party (Partai Damai Aceh or PDA)
— Aceh National Party (Partai Nasional Aceh or PNA)
— Aceh Party (Partai Aceh or PA)

Candidates

Declared

  • Aburizal Bakrie, chairman of the Golkar party.[15] However, there is discontent in some quarters within the party about Bakrie's candidature. There is some talk of a possible move to reconsider the decision to nominate Bakrie as Golkar's candidate for the presidency.[16]
  • Mahfud MD, former Chief Justice of the Indonesian Constitutional Court[17]
  • Wiranto, former Commander of the Indonesian Armed Forces, 2004 presidential candidate, and 2009 vice presidential candidate[18]
  • Yusril Ihza Mahendra, former minister in SBY cabinet [19]

Timeline

The following timeline makes reference to some dates which refer to the national parliamentary elections due in mid-2014 as well as other events in addition to the presidential election. These dates are noted because events leading up to the national parliamentary elections will, in the minds of voters and party organisers, be closely linked to the presidential election. Campaign plans for a second round of voting for the president (if needed) will be affected by the timing of Idul Fitri in 2014 which falls at the end of July.
