[2] Gelora Party aimed to attract undecided voters, and to participate in 2020 local elections.

The Indonesian People's Wave Party or Gelora was founded on October 28, 2019 with the idea and ideals of making Indonesia a power in the top five of the world.

This idea was first conveyed by Anis Matta in his speech "New Directions for Indonesia" at the KAMMI Alumni Family Work Conference in Jakarta, 3 February 2018.

[6] Anis Matta described the party's ideology as "Pancasila with Islamic identity", and stated that Gelora is not "PKS-Perjuangan" (Prosperous Justice Party-Struggle).
