In July 2026 the Indonesian Democratic Party of Struggle (PDIP) launched its local‑branch elections for the 2026‑31 term, marking the start of a nationwide internal voting process.

A month later, the People's Consultative Assembly (MPR) announced that its annual session, together with a joint meeting of the DPR and DPD, would be held on 14 August 2026. The session will open earlier than usual to avoid conflict with Friday prayers, feature speeches by MPR Chair Ahmad Muzani and President Prabowo Subianto, and include a financial report and invitations to former national leaders and foreign heads of state.
