The People's Conscience Party (Indonesian: Partai Hati Nurani Rakyat, Partai Hanura) is a political party in Indonesia. It was established following a meeting in Jakarta on 13–14 December 2006 and is headed by former Indonesian Military commander Wiranto.
After being eliminated in the first round of the 2004 Indonesian presidential election, Wiranto was "traumatized" by his defeat and decided not to run for the presidency without his own political vehicle. He resigned from the Golkar Party in 2006 and established a new political party, the name of which he chose himself. The party's target voters are the people who voted for Wiranto in 2004. The party conducted a door-door grassroots campaign. The basis of its support is in West Java, Gorontalo, South Sulawesi, North Sulawesi, West Nusa Tenggara and Bali The party's target in the 2004 elections was 15 percent of the vote.
The result of the Indonesian legislative election, 2009 was announced on 9 May 2009. Hanura won 3.77 percent of the national vote, which translated into 18 legislative seats. The party had supported Golkar chairman Jusuf Kalla for the presidency, in which both parties lost out to the Indonesian Democratic Party-Struggle and the Democratic Party. Hanura chairman Wiranto was his vice-presidential candidate, despite Wiranto's previous statement that he would not settle for the vice-presidency. Following cabinet reshuffle in July 2016, Wiranto was appointed as coordinating minister for politics, legal and security affairs, prompting the party to hold convention to select Wiranto's successor as party chairman.
