Summary of "Sistem Konstitusi [4]"

Main Ideas and Concepts

Changes in State Institutions
Post-amendment, several new institutions were established, and the functions of existing ones were altered. The MPR (People's Consultative Assembly) now consists of members from the DPR (People's Representative Council) and DPD (Regional Representative Council), with all members elected through elections.
New Institutions
- Constitutional Court: Established to uphold the constitution's integrity and conduct judicial reviews.
- Judicial Commission: Ensures the integrity of judges.
- KPU (General Election Commission): Oversees elections to ensure voter integrity.
Separation and Division of Powers
The government power is divided into six types, moving beyond the traditional three branches (executive, legislative, judiciary).
- Legislative Power: Held by the DPR, which must collaborate with the President to form laws.
- Judicial Power: Managed by the Supreme Court and the Constitutional Court.
- Auditing Power: Conducted by the BPK (Supreme Audit Agency).
- Monetary Power: Managed by the central bank.
Checks and Balances
The system aims to prevent power accumulation in any single institution, ensuring a balance through a system of checks and balances.
Presidential Elections and Terms
The President is elected directly with a maximum of two consecutive terms. A process is established for the removal of the President or Vice President, involving the MPR and Constitutional Court.
