Students Unit of Youth of Pancasila, Friday (24/2), visited the Constitutional Court (MK). On that occasion, they were, amounting to dozens of people came to the Court, in order to run a scientific visited the theme "Dialogue and Interactive Constitution from Noble Values of Pancasila."

Chief Justice of the Constitutional Court’s staff as well as researcher at Puslitka Fajar Laksono, received immediate arrival of the Pancasila Youth Unit. He was also the occasion, presenting material related to the meaning of Pancasila and the methods used so far in convening the Constitutional Court.

In the starting material, Fajar said that the reform actually happen due to current conditions in the position of non-democratic countries, countries in the authoritarian state, and talks about Pancasila became slack. "So when it wants to change from a position that is not democratic to a more democratic, including freedom of association, freedom of expression," he explained.

But unfortunately, Fajar continued, even now we are in a period of democratic transition. In fact, judging from the theory, democratic transition is complete when it’s over two times the General Election. But the theory does not apply, because the people of Indonesia are now democratic, but still there is anarchism.

Similarly, the policy of regional autonomy, he said, the policy is actually good for the community closer to the head region, but regional autonomy is understood differently by certain parties. "The regents as if the right to manage the area," he said. "In such conditions, the values of Pancasila is rather slack," he said.

Furthermore, Fajar said that the historical record since the founding of this nation, Pancasila is considered as a mutual agreement. Pancasila values seem to be the spirit of the constitution, to be a good ethnic and moral goodness. All of this is already entrenched in Indonesian society. "Then by the Founding Fathers, in drafting the 1945 Constitution formulated in terms of creation of the state," he said.

What’s more, Fajar adds, Pancasila has been tested theoretically, politically, or otherwise. If we look at the way the nation, it was never to be replaced as the Pancasila ideology. However, the existence of Pancasila is still there. "This means that there are proven, Pancasila was perfect and fit the culture of the condition of the people of Indonesia," he explained.

Furthermore, Fajar continued, the Pancasila itself, there are some guiding principles of law, including laws designed to prevent the integration of territorial and ideological. Then, the law also made to balance democracy and nomocracy."Democracy is not it tends to stray. It is therefore necessary in a democratic law, "he explained. The other is the Pancasila rules must ensure toleration, and the law should guarantee the social justice.

That was then, a number of the rule of law is also applied by the Court. That is, the agency in implementing the authority and duty to apply the law with justice. "In this case, when the written rules do not solve the existing problems in this country, especially in the trial, the judge will make his own way to achieve justice. And rule of law that hinders the process of justice, "he said. (Shohibul Umam / mh/Yazid.tr)
