She made it four times to limit the executive power (president) and at the same time strengthened the legislative body (DPR) and added several institutions such as DPD, the judicial commission and the Constitutional Court.
“But a new problem arises, namely the strengthening of the judiciary (the Constitutional Court). In some constitutional court decisions, it seems that the legislative power may be annexed by the Constitutional Court. And all of them, both constitutional powers and the Constitutional Court, are based on the constitutional authority.
Thus, Nurdin Khalid urged MPR to hold a special session to return the original and untouched Constitution of 1945. The euphoria of the 1998 reform, which four times gave birth to an amendment to the 1945 Constitution, replaced our soul, philosophy and basic system of our nation and the state. Amendments to the 1945 Constitution replaced the “spirit” of Punkasil’s democracy based on a consensus agreement with liberal democracy.
“If a punk as the spirit of Indonesian democracy and the Constitution of the 1945 Constitution as the main criterion moved, then everything changes automatically. And we become stuttering in a collision with these shifts. This is the root of our chaotic socio-political life over the past two decades, ”said Nurdin Galid.
The decision, the continuation of Nurdin, MPR needs to hold a hearing in order to amend the Constitution of 1945. Nurdin hopes that the MPR will return to become the “referee” in the position of the Supreme State Institute, which has the highest authority in the life of the Indonesian state administration, including for mediation of power conflicts between high state institutions that have wide and non -productive consequences.
“I urge the MPR to amend the initial and untouched Constitution of 1945. In addition, the MPR session also made TAP MPR to officially interpret the articles of the 1945 Constitution, taking into account the section of explanations in the initial Constitution of 1945.
