Joko Widodo confirms PSI membership and reveals membership card

Former Indonesian President Joko Widodo has publicly confirmed his membership in the Indonesian Solidarity Party (PSI), revealing his membership card during regional coordination meetings in Bandung and Bekasi. Widodo stated he has been a member of the party since October 14, 2025, and used the opportunity to address public skepticism regarding his political commitment.

During his appearances, Widodo emphasized that the party should not be deterred by potential changes to the parliamentary threshold, regardless of whether it is set at 5 percent or higher. He urged cadres to focus on organizational work and building active structures within society. He noted that while PSI is a relatively new party, its growth and influence are already causing concern among political rivals.

Party leadership announced that Widodo is expected to be officially inaugurated as the Chairman of the PSI Advisory Board on November 16, 2026, in Surabaya. This event is planned to coincide with the party's anniversary and its National Leadership Meeting (Rapimnas).
