reisilihasesta

Reisilihasesta is a term used in the context of Indonesian politics to describe a situation where a political party or coalition loses its majority in the Indonesian Parliament, the People's Consultative Assembly (Dewan Perwakilan Rakyat or DPR). This term is derived from the Indonesian words "resiliensi" (resilience) and "ilahi" (divine), reflecting the belief that the loss of political power is a temporary setback and that the party or coalition will eventually regain its majority.

The concept of reisilihasesta is rooted in Indonesian political culture, which emphasizes the importance of resilience and perseverance in the face of adversity. It is often used to describe the ability of a political party or coalition to bounce back from a setback and continue to play a role in Indonesian politics.

Reisilihasesta is not a formal political strategy or doctrine, but rather a cultural and ideological framework that guides the behavior of Indonesian political actors. It is based on the belief that the Indonesian political system is inherently unstable and that political power is constantly shifting between different parties and coalitions.

The term reisilihasesta is often used in the context of the struggle between the Indonesian Democratic Party of Struggle (Partai Demokrasi Indonesia Perjuangan or PDI-P) and the Golkar Party. These two parties have dominated Indonesian politics since the fall of Suharto in 1998, and their rivalry has been characterized by a series of political setbacks and comebacks.

In recent years, the term reisilihasesta has been used to describe the situation of the PDI-P, which has been in opposition since 2019. Despite its losses in the 2019 and 2024 elections, the PDI-P has continued to play a significant role in Indonesian politics, and it is widely believed that it will eventually regain its majority.
