History

edit

Sukarno period

edit

As ideology unique to Indonesia, efforts to preserve, educate, and develop of Pancasila have been carried out since the 1950s. Pancasila has included in basic education system since 1950 thru issuance of Law No. 4/1950.[3] However, in 1959, attempts for Pancasila preservation started to become skewed in practice and used as political tool for gaining the support for ruling regime. During Sukarno administration, Pancasila preservation was hampered due to Sukarno 1959 political manifesto (originally his address during the 1959 Indonesian Independence Day parade), which introduced Manipol USDEK, short for Sukarno's interpretation of Constitution of 1945, Indonesian Socialism (a non-Russian variant of National Bolshevism), guided democracy, guided economy, and Indonesia nationalism.[4] This manifesto resulted in Pancasila mixed together with leftist ideologies and being used as tool for perpetuation of Sukarno administration. After the Manipol USDEK ideology was enshrined thru Provisional People's Consultative Assembly Resolution No. I/MPRS/1960, the resolution required the population to follow Sukarno's interpretation of Pancasila according to him and rejected any alternative interpretation.[5][6] As a tool for its development, the Supreme Advisory Council (Indonesian: Dewan Pertimbangan Agung, DPA) was used to socialize and promote Manipol USDEK as the defacto national principle.[5]

Suharto period

edit

The need of Pancasila preservation become intensified after the 30 September Movement, after Suharto concluded that Pancasila was no longer practiced by Indonesian population, thus "Communism/Marxism-Leninism" (sic, official state terminology) was raised as contender and challenged the state ideology.[7] By mandate of People's Consultative Assembly Resolution No. II/MPR/1978, Suharto formalized the creation of the Guidelines for the Appreciation and Practice of Pancasila (Indonesian: Pedoman Penghayatan dan Pengamalan Pancasila, P-4 or Ekaprasetia Pancakarsa) as a national policy. On 26 March 1979, thru Presidential Decree No. 10/1979, the Agency for Development, Education, Implementation of Guidelines for the Appreciation and Practice of Pancasila (Badan Pembinaan Pendidikan Pelaksanaan Pedoman Penghayatan dan Pengamalan Pancasila, BP-7) was founded by Suharto administration to futher develop Pancasila as national ideology.[7] [5] BP-7's operational structure spanned from the central government to town level.[5] After reformasi, BP-7 was formally abolished by President Habibie by issuance of Presidential Decree No. 27/1999 due to its connections to Suharto - and his interpretation of the ideology, Resolution 2/MPR/1978, as too authoritarian and anti-democratic, as well as unadaptable to current circumstances.[8] With no longer have agency dedicated to preserve it, Pancasila no longer protected and threatened.[8] Excessive freedom brought by reformasi, together with abolition of Pancasila studies in post-New Order education system also enabled other foreign ideologies to be imported to Indonesia without filter, resulted in much mixture and loss uniformity in Pancasila teaching and enabled to various interpretation of Pancasila to be exist, further threatening Pancasila as ideology and also resulted in loss of national identity and threatening national resilience.[9]

Reformation and new agency

edit

18 years after dissolution of BP-7, Joko Widodo issued Presidential Decree No. 54/2017, establishing Presidential Unit of Pancasila Ideology Development (Indonesia: Unit Kerja Presiden Pembinaan Ideologi Pancasila, UKP-PIP).[10] UKP-PIP later elevated to BPIP by issuance of Presidential Decree No. 7/2018.[10]

The current agency, as its basis, provides the duty of the development, practice and application of Pancasila per the provisions of Resolution 1/PCA/2003 on the Application of Pancasila by the People's Consultative Assembly - the current official state interpretation of the dogma of Pancasila, formulated to apply lessons learned from the reformasi movements of the 90s.
