TEMPORARY Constitution 1950
· Constitution of the Republic of Indonesia, known as 1950, is the constitution
in force in the Republic of Indonesia since August 17, 1950 until the issuance
of Presidential Decree of July 5, 1959.
1950 stipulated by Act No. 7 of 1950 on the Amendment of the Constitution of
the Republic of Indonesia into the Constitution of the Republic of Indonesia,
in the First Session of the 3rd round of the 71st Meeting of the House RIS
dated August 14, 1950 in Jakarta.
This constitution is called "temporary", because only temporary, pending
the results of the election of the Constituent Assembly elections will draft a
new constitution. 1955 General Election to elect a Constituent democratically,
but the Assembly failed to form a new constitution to be protracted. On July 5,
1959, President Sukarno issued Presidential Decree of July 5, 1959, which
contains, among other re-enactment of the 1945 Constitution.
Guided Democracy
Guided democracy is a democracy that could exist in Indonesia, the entire
decision and thought centered on the leader alone.
Background initiation system by President Sukarno's Guided Democracy:
In terms of security: The number of separatist movements in the period of
liberal democracy, causing instability in the security field.
In terms of economy: Often the change of cabinet in the period of liberal
democracy led to programs designed by the cabinet can not be executed in full,
so the stalled economic development.
Politically: Constituent failed in drafting a new constitution to replace the
1950
Guided Democracy period initiated by President Soekarno preceded by his
suggestion that the Act is used to replace the 1950 is UUD'45. However, the
proposal raises the pros and cons among the constituent members. As a follow-up
proposal, held a vote, followed by all the constituent members. Voting is done
in order to resolve conflicts arising from the pros and cons will be the
proposal of President Sukarno.
Voting results showed that:
269 people agreed to return to UUD'45
119 people did not agree to return to UUD'45
Judging from the results of voting, the proposal to return to UUD'45 can not be
realized. This is caused by a number of constituent members who approved the
proposal does not reach the 2/3 part, as set out in Article 137 1950.
Starting from this, President Sukarno issued a decree called the Presidential
Decree of 5 July 1959. The contents of the Presidential Decree of July 5, 1959:
Not valid return 1950
Re-enactment of the 1945 Constitution
dissolution of the constituent
MPRS formation and DPAs
PKI welcome "Guided Democracy" warm and Sukarno with the assumption
that the CPI has Konsepsi alliance between nationalism, religion (Islam) and
communism called NASAKOM.
Between 1959 and 1965, the United States provided 64 million dollars in
military aid to the Indonesian military generals. According to a report in
"Indonesian Youth Voices": Before the end of 1960, the United States
has completed the 43 battalion of the armed forces. Each year the US trained
military officers right wing. Between 1956 and 1959, more than 200 high-ranking
officers have been trained in the US, and hundreds of low-ranking officers are
trained every year. Head of the Agency for International Development in America
said that US aid, of course, not to support Sukarno and that the US has trained
a large number of officers of the armed forces and civilians who want to form a
unit to make Indonesia a "free country".
In 1962, the struggle for West Irian by the Indonesian military had the full
support of the PKI leadership, along with the suppression of the resistance of
indigenous populations.
Era of "Guided Democracy", which is a collaboration between the PKI
leadership and the national bourgeoisie in suppressing the independent movement
of the workers and peasants, failed to solve the problems of political and
economic imperative. Declining export earnings, foreign exchange reserves
declined, inflation continues to rise and the bureaucratic and military
corruption became endemic.
Deviations Guided Democracy

the west, but in practice, Guided Democracy experienced a wide shape deviations

Deviation Deviation-Government In The Guided Democracy
Presidential Decree issued July 5, 1959 by President Sukarno intended to
