Quoting the notes from the nasdem.id website, it is important to note that political parties in Indonesia are national organizations formed by a group of Indonesian citizens voluntarily based on the common will and aspirations to fight for and defend the political interests of members, society, nation, and state, as well as to maintain the unity of the Unitary State of the Republic of Indonesia based on Pancasila and the 1945 Constitution of the Republic of Indonesia. This definition is stated in Article 1, paragraph 1 of Law No. 2 of 2008 concerning Political Parties.

The following is the translation of the 'Bahasa' text to 'English' while preserving any html tags: "The party leader is a prestigious position within a political structure. The amount of salary for the party leader is sometimes questioned. However, each party has its own scheme in terms of remuneration. This is also related to how the party obtains money. Each party has a different scheme in obtaining funds and determining the salary of the party leader."

The party's funds come from personal contributions, especially from its members who successfully hold legislative seats. In addition, according to Government Regulation Number 5 of 2009 regarding Financial Assistance to Political Parties, it is stated that parties that obtain seats in the Indonesian House of Representatives (DPR RI) in the last election will receive assistance of Rp108 per vote every year. For example, if a party manages to gain 10 million votes in the election, then that party will receive financial support of Rp1.08 billion each year until the next election.

The financial resources of a political party are regulated based on Law Number 2 of 2008 as amended by Law Number 2 of 2011, sourced from membership fees from members who are already seated as members of the Indonesian Parliament/Regional Representative Council/Regional People's Representative Council, legitimate donations according to the law, and financial assistance from the State Budget/Regional Budget.
