A nationalist party; in the last election held in Indonesia (mid-1999), the Indonesian Democratic Party (Partai Demokrasi Indonesia) was the winner, 153 seats. Its leader, H. E. Megawati Soekarnoputri, is the president of the republic. Here is one of her most generally seen campaign/political flags. It is still in use now and will likely be used again in the 2004 election.
Sammy Kanadi, 8 December 1999

The PDIP is indeed a split of the PDI. As said above, the PDIP won in 1999 33% of the votes and 153 out of the 500 seats (but there were still 38 seats allocated to the armed forces); in 2004, the PDIP won only 18.5 % of the votes and 109 out of the 550 seats. Megawati was defeated in the second round of the 2004 presidential election by Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono. According to photographs available on the party website, the flag is still in use. See for instance: http://www.pdi-perjuangan.or.id/gallery/func,detail/id,152/.

Golongan Karya is the full name of the party, meaning "Functional Groups".
Ivan Sache, 24 November 2008

A Muslim party; 58 seats in 1999.  The flag shown here is the pre-1999 flag of the party.  This flag is now used by 
another new party, PP or Partai Persatuan.

The current flag of the PPP is pale green, charged with the image of the Ka'bah, holy site of the Moslem.  It was adopted in 1999.

A variant of this flag is predominantly black, with a rather squarish mosque in perspective, receding to the hoist, on a green field. The building has orange features and below the initials PPP are shown in black.
Jorge Candeias, 8 June 1999

The emblem of the party is shown on Wikipedia Indonesia: http://id.wikipedia.org/wiki/Berkas:PPP.gif

Partai Amanat Nasional (National Mandate Party)

51 seats in 1999 election.
A Muslim party.  The flag of the PKB is a white or green (two color officially used) flag charged with the symbol of PKB, a globe showing Indonesian map and an Arabic inscription on it, surrounded by a circle of stars. This is the party of the former Indonesian president, Abdurrahman Wahid.

A variant of this flag shows the party symbol on a green field with the party name below in white. The symbol is a map of Indonesia on a schematic planet map (i.e. - a few parallels and meridians on a circle) in white, surrounded by 9 golden stars, the one at 0:00 h twice as large as the others. The symbol also brings the party's initials in black outside the green field.
Jorge Candeias, 8 June 1999

"Partai Matahari Bangsa" (PMB, National Sun Party) is an Islamic political party founded on 16 December 2006, which plans to compete in the 2009 general election.

The party website shows a photograph of a rickshaw demonstration, with several party flags, which seems to be strictly equivalent to the party emblem. The party emblem is made of a red square charged with a 12-pointed, multifaceted white and red sun; below the square is a white rectangle charged with the red letters "PMB" above "PARTAI MATAHARI BANGSA". The whole is surrounded by a thin white and red border.
