6. In the above explanation can be seen that the interpretation of the phrase

"faithfully ...." is not equipped with a strong legal force, but

is only based on a sheet of statement that is peppered with the seal

Rp.6000,-without any other supporting evidence.

When as we know that Pancasila is the foundation of country,

the Indonesian life guidelines as a living view, way of life and

life goals, as the foundation of the idiil and the foundation of real as well as ideology and

the state falsafah.

a) That Pancasila is as a source laws and inviters-

invitations.

b) That Pancasila is not only a purely abstract philosophy

but rather to be held in concrete and exercised concrete by all

a layer of society mainly by leaders and state officials.

c) That Pancasila is the source of all legal sources.

is a view of life awareness and moral ideals.

e) That Pancasila is a legal agreement entire Indonesian people.

f) That Pancasila as the foundation of the philosophy and ideology of the state and

Indonesia ' s public view will always provide guidance

to all the moves of our activities.

8

g) Azas development must remain imbued Pancasila, that development

not only produces prosperity but must also guarantee

social justice.

h) That maintains and embodied the execution of Pancasila and

UUD 1945 let us be together.

i) That science and science and technology can be learned from

Other advanced nations, but the provisions of leadership, watak and

determination must be taken and be redeemed from the history of struggle and

the personality and culture of the nation.

j) That The behavior and deeds of the leaders and the state officials

must be an example that is truly a manifestation

of Pancasila values and the 1945 Constitution.

k) That Pancasila is a unique values of the nation's personality

Indonesia.

our history and culture.

m) That modern society of ideals should remain soulless

and Indonesian-faced.

o) That if Pancasila does not touch real life, it does

feel his form in everyday life then slow

his understanding will blur and allegiances to Pancasila, over-more

generation to It's coming down and the Pancasila's just gonna be

memories.

7. From the description and the data above can be drawn to the conclusion that

Pancasila was excavated from the fundamental values, values of personality and values

the culture of the people of the ancestors of the Indonesian nation. Thus

Pancasila is a fused soul and rooted in blood and blood

meat for the Indonesian people, hence the so-called "true" Pancasila man (Pancasilais).

8. What about the WNI 's descendants who are indeed their ancestors

is not an Indonesian nation, which does not have basic values, values

personality, cultural values and the sublime values of the nation' s culture

9

as the ancestors of the Indonesian people, do they have this

understand, memorise, and exude Pancasila?

While they never learned the moral knowledge of Pancasila and

participate in the P4 exposure because of the small schools overseas if inside

the country is limited in their communities.

Therefore the applicant please to the Constitutional Court in order

a statement of loyalty to the Pancasila should be attached to

a certificate that states once followed the central level of P4

for the candidate of the President/Vice President, Caleg, Governor and beyond

in accordance with its level of origin, especially for the descendants of the WNI.

9. In actuality many Members of the House, Provincial Council or DPRD

The City/County do not memorized the sila-sila in Pancasila.

10.In terms of responsibility for the actions that are contrary to

Pancasila, Basic Law 1945 and the Proclamation of 17 August

1945 conducted by the President, Vice President, Regional Chief, Deputy

Regional Head, Member of the DPD, Member of the House, DPRD Province or DPRD

City/County. It should be in effect a liability term with

Leader of the Political Party or the Combined Political Party which provides Warranty and Recommend.

11.That Article 163 IS has divided the population of the Dutch East Indies in 3 (three)

group, that is:

a. European group

b. Chinese, Indian, and other Asian types

c. Indigenous group

12.That Article 6 of the paragraph (1) Basic Law of 1945 does not divide and

limit the group of Indonesian citizens, essentially all citizens

Indonesia can or may be the candidate of the President, Vice President

also the Regional Government Act and the Election Act.

13.Pemapplicant is aggrieved in the presence of Article 6 of the paragraph (1) Invite-

The Basic Invite of 1945 is due to more competition and

narrowing chances of the applicant and his descendants even for all

citizens of the native Indonesian people to being the candidate for President and Vice

President, Governor, Regent, Mayor, and legislative member in

overall due to competition for public office

10

it is no longer seen from the program and the credibility of the candidate is concerned

but is more emphasized in consideration of matter. As for other reasons

is also due to differences in principle and personality and

cultural characters with Indonesian citizens of descent.

On the basis of those reasons above the applicant pledging to

the Court The Constitution tests the Act of Pilpres, the Act

Election, the Act of Pemda as outlined in

Article 6 of the paragraph (1) of the Basic Law of 1945 with 2 (two) options

alternatives, namely:

a. Canceling 3 (three) of the Act above (The Pilpres Act,

Election, Pemda) in the articles related to the consequences

changes the ideology and course of the Pancasila state.

b. Or return to the Basic Law of 1945 before

Amendment that reads "President is the Native Indonesians".

14,Population and or Indonesian citizens are indeed a compound consisting of

of a variety of non-heterogeneous, non-heterogeneous people, not

such as heterogeneous Americans and consisting of various peoples,

Europe, Africa, and the multi-ethnic Asia.

15.Besides that our democracy is not a liberal democracy like America but

we adhere to Pancasila democracy.

16.That the applicant argues Article 6 of the paragraph (1) of the Basic Law 1945

contrary to Pancasila when it should be Article 6 of the paragraph

(1) It must be a guideline to Pancasila because Pancasila is

the source of all national law sources.

17.Pemapplicant realizes that changing the Basic Law is not

the Constitutional Court's authority, but if expecting MPR

convenes may be said to be almost impossible, because to

amendment the Basic Law is required 2/3 (two-thirds)

Member of the MPR.

the Court's ruling on legal standing (legal standing) as well as

is associated with the loss experienced by the applicant, according to the Court:

The applicant has a constitutional right granted by the Constitution of 1945,

in particular Article 6 of the paragraph (1), and the applicant considers the constitutional right

18

Section 6 of the paragraph (1) of the 1945 Constitution for that reason in paragraph

[3.7];

[3.12] Draw that after the Court examined with the witness

a request a quo and the evidence The papers submitted by the applicant,

The court argued for the following:

The suggestion that in its request, the applicant postulate, among others:

1. That one of the requirements of being a candidate for President and a candidate for Vice

August 1945". According to the applicant a loyal statement to Pancasila

as the basis of the state, the Basic Law of 1945 signed

by the will of the candidate in question on the papers of the signet

as determined in General Election Commission Rule

and the Deputy Head of the Regions are the citizens of the Republic of Indonesia who

qualify, among them, "loyal to Pancasila as the Basis

The applicant pleads for the Court to interpret " allegiance to Pancasila

1945, ideals of the Proclamation of Independence August 17, 1945, and to the State

Unity of the Republic of Indonesia as well as the The government " in the chapters a quo, will
