The National Forum of lndokistan (Indonesian: Forum Nasional Indokistan, also known by its Indonesian short name Fornas, from Forum Nasional) was an entity served as national legislature of the Federal State of Indokistan. The forum unites all active Indokistani individuals to share their proposals, responds, and votes on actions and laws that should be done by the government.
It was officially established as aftermath of a reform started in early 2013, to replace the previous legislature that went down on a political crisis in 2012. The national forum adopted the phrase Wa Amruhum Syura Bainahum (وَأَمْرُهُمْ شُورَى بَيْنَهُمْ, ..to conduct their affairs by mutual consultation,..) as the motto, reflecting its function and how the forum runs.
President was the designated head of the National Forum, which characterizes the unique feature of Indokistani direct democracy, as the National Forum too is the core part of the direct democracy system.
