Outline of PPD's platform

Various violations and weaknesses in the past have caused the
nation to have little dignity before the international community;
this should bring about a new awareness in each citizen of the
unitary republic to strengthen their nationalism based on freedom
and liberty, based on morality and religion.

To overcome weaknesses, particularly in the regions, the law
on regional autonomy is a strong foundation for the development
of all spheres.

Therefore strengthening of all human, natural and cultural
resources is needed, not only for national interests but also for
regional interests.

The United Regional Party thus strives for a people-oriented
democracy (kerakyatan), public welfare and security.

Kerakyatan would encourage the participation of people from
the regions in line with the spirit of the constitution, "rules
of the game" and civil and political ethics.

Such ethics would comprise of clean governance, and the
development of a political atmosphere, which was open and
sensitive to aspirations from the regions, appreciative of
differences, honest in competition, open to truthful opinions and
showed a high respect for human rights.

The party's mission thus includes the following:
- national reconciliation to enable all programs of:
o economic recovery,
o improved education,
o improved health,
o sustainable development

- with an emphasis on regional interests in the economy,
education and health.
