Indonesia is a state of law. In the rule of law, the maintenance of nationality is governed by a constitution of law. The Constitution is the foundation of a country's legal system, which includes the protection of human rights. The constitution forms the framework that regulates the distribution of power between the institutions of the state, ensuring a balance of power essential to preventing abuse of power. Through constitutional mechanisms, the state not only affirms its sovereignty, but also ensures that the government runs fairly and democratically, and respects and protects the rights of its citizens. The Constitution guarantees the rights of the people, such as the right to associate, assemble and express opinions.
