Brief profile of The Working People's
Association (PRP)
Background
PRP was founded in the National Meeting for
Left Unification on May 13th - 15th 2004 in Surakarta,
Solo, Indonesia.
All participants in the Meeting unanimously agreed on the formation of the
Preparation Committee for Unification which will work nationally. This
preparation is henceforth called the Working People's Association - Preparation
Commitee (KP-PRP).
The meeting was based on one fundamental
issue, the concern for the fact that, amid the rising politics of the ruling
class, the working people is losing their identity and unable to recognizes
their own interest in face of the political decision of the government which
sides with the capital owner. In other words, the Surakarta National Meeting
conclude that rebuilding the class politics of the working people is an
immediate task to be carried on by the organization that will be borne out of
the meeting.
PRP then held its first congress on
September 1st - 4th in Jakarta.
Among the many important resolutions agreed on the Congress, one of the most
important is the resolution to put the organisation's programme further as well
as to enforce PRP's programme to build a working class' party. The party
building strategy of PRP will be developed in further national meetings of PRP.
The first congress of PRP has renewed the
commitment to realized a working class politics in Indonesia. The experiences from the
last two years has shown various problems that can be serious hurdles in this
struggle, however the organization's successes to rise after facing all these
problems is a valuable asset for the long journey ahead to the future, when the
bigger dan harder hurdles will obstruct the working people's will to seek their
own prosperity.
Fundamentals and Principles
Our fundamentals is the scientific
principles of socialism and staying close to the mass line.
Our principles of action are class
struggle, which are:
1. A politics of class will always fuse the
proletariat to the economical, political, and theoretical power (in ideology
and consciousness).
2. The struggle for power in economy,
politics, and ideology is done through the organisation of proletarian party,
however when the time comes, the People's Council will be the only tools of the
proletariat to hold real power.
3. A party can only be called a proletarian
party if and only if it is dominated by the proletariat. Other classes inside
the party is under the leadership of the proletariat and focus their struggle
for the victory of the proletariat.
4. One of the condition for this domination of
the proletariat is on the "class composition" in the 5 organisation, a
proletarian party must be able "class composition" within itself to
be dominated by the proletariat.
5. Since the majority of the proletariat is
under the hegemony of the ideology of the ruling class, then a vanguard
organisation is needed, which will carry the burden to further the
consciousness of the proletariat in their back.
6. To become a vanguard, the organisation must
be centralized in themself, a centralism which enables it to move in one body
and soul. However, this centralism cannot based merely on sole authority to the
central leadership, but must be based on a common understanding on the actions
that should be taken in certain situation.
7. A class struggle can only be a true power
if it is also based on internationalism.
Four Enemies of the Working People
The National Meeting in Solo (2004) also
decided on the Four Enemies of the Working People, the four powers which will
obstruct the working people's struggle
in reaching for their power and (through their power) obtaining
prosperity. They are militerism, imperialism, the ruling bourgeoisie, and the
illusion of religious fundamentalism.
Our working program will consists of
ideological, political, and organisational program. The ideological program is
internal publications, mass publication, distribution and translation of
ideological materials, and ideological education for members.
