COMPATIBILITY OF REGIONAL HEAD ELECTIONS THROUGH THE REGIONAL PEOPLE'S REPRESENTATIVE COUNCIL (DPRD) ON PANCASILA: AN ALTERNATIVE VIEW OF REGIONAL HEAD ELECTIONS IN INDONESIA
Main Article Content
Abstract
as the state's fundamental norm, Pancasila requires that all forms of legislation, including the regional head election mechanism, align with or imbued with Pancasila values, especially its 4th Precept. The debate over the election of regional heads through the DPRD or directly through the people is a classic debate. It is often understood that direct elections by the people are more democratic compared with indirect regional head elections. This study aimed to answer the indirect regional head election's compatibility with the values of the Fourth Precepts of Pancasila. This study argues that the indirect regional head election model is more suitable or compatible with Pancasila values. Therefore, reformulation of the regional head election model through the DPRD should be considered for its implementation by the Government and the House of Representatives.
