Free Indian Party and Elderly Union

The Free Indian Party and Elderly Union (Dutch: Vrije Indische Partij en Ouderenunie) was a political alliance that participated the 2003 Dutch general election.

It consisted out of the Free Indian Party (VIP) and the Elderly Union. The VIP was a political party for people from the Dutch former colonies, Dutch East India and Suriname, that never got a seat in the parliament. The elderly single-issue parties, General Elderly Alliance and Union 55+ were successful in the 1990s, gaining many seats, but after scandals, the Elderly Alliance lost the confidence among their voters. The two merged into the Elderly Union (Ouderenunie).
