The Pancasila Ideology Development Agency (Indonesian: Badan Pembinaan Ideologi Pancasila, BPIP) is a non-ministerial government agency formed by the Indonesian government in 2018 with Presidential Decree No.7/2018. The agency was tasked with the main task of preserving Pancasila, the state ideology, and its ideological development and implementation. It is the revitalisation of Presidential Unit of Pancasila Ideology Development formed in 2017. [1]

Contents

BPIP is not related with Suharto's New Order era 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), which was renowned for its skewed interpretation of Pancasila and widespread abuse to ideologically indoctrinate most Indonesian citizens at that time, which leads into perpetuation of the New Order. [2]

History

Sukarno period

As ideology unique to Indonesia, efforts to preserve, educate, and develop of Pancasila have been carried out since the 1950. 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 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 tool, Supreme Advisory Council (Indonesian: Dewan Pertimbangan Agung, DPA) was used to socialize and promote Manipol USDEK. [5]

Suharto period

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, Guidelines for the Appreciation and Practice of Pancasila (Indonesian: Pedoman Penghayatan dan Pengamalan Pancasila, P-4) program launched. On 26 March 1979, thru Presidential Decree No. 10/1979, 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) founded by Suharto administration. [7] Again, the practice become skewed during Suharto administration. During BP-7 era, interpretation of Pancasila become skewed into veneration of Suharto figure and BP-7 abused to become a tool to ideological indoctrination. [5] Not only BP-7's Pancasila interpretation that become problematic, BP-7 operational costs were very outrageous and massive due to BP-7 structure was so massive at that time, spanning from central government to town level, resulted in inefficient spending and blatant corruption. [5] After reformasi, BP-7 abolished by Habibie by issuance of Presidential Decree No. 27/1999. [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

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]
