🇮🇩 Ringkasan Berita (Bahasa Indonesia)
Prof. Bayu Dwi Anggono, Kepala Badan Keahlian DPR RI, menekankan bahwa pembinaan ideologi Pancasila memerlukan payung hukum undang-undang (UU) agar lebih kuat, sistematis, dan tidak bergantung pada perubahan rezim politik.
Saat ini, Badan Pembinaan Ideologi Pancasila (BPIP) hanya berdiri berdasarkan Peraturan Presiden (Perpres) sehingga dianggap lemah secara legitimasi. Bayu mengingatkan bahwa pembinaan ideologi sering berubah sesuai dinamika politik, mulai dari era Soekarno (Bina Jiwa Revolusi), Orde Baru (BP7), hingga sosialisasi Empat Pilar MPR di era Reformasi.
Bayu menegaskan UU baru tidak boleh menjadikan Pancasila sebagai alat indoktrinasi, tetapi harus hidup dalam praktik berbangsa. Partisipasi publik, perguruan tinggi, organisasi masyarakat, dan diaspora dianggap penting untuk mendukung internalisasi nilai Pancasila lintas generasi.
Ia juga mengusulkan adanya indeks pembinaan ideologi Pancasila sebagai alat ukur efektivitas, serta mencontohkan lembaga asing seperti Federal Agency for Civic Education (Jerman) dan Komisi Kebenaran dan Rekonsiliasi (Afrika Selatan).
🇬🇧 English Summary
Prof. Bayu Dwi Anggono, Head of the Expertise Agency of the Indonesian Parliament (DPR), emphasized that the promotion of the Pancasila ideology requires a legal framework in the form of a law to ensure strength, consistency, and independence from political regime changes.
Currently, the Agency for Pancasila Ideology Development (BPIP) is based only on a Presidential Regulation (Perpres), making its position weak. Bayu noted that ideological education has often shifted with political changes, from Soekarno’s Bina Jiwa Revolusi, the BP7 body during the New Order, to the Four Pillars program of the MPR during Reformasi.
He stressed that the law should not turn Pancasila into a tool of indoctrination, but into a living ideology practiced in society. Public participation—universities, civil society, and the diaspora—must be guaranteed for intergenerational continuity.
Bayu also proposed a Pancasila Ideology Development Index to measure effectiveness, citing foreign examples like Germany’s Federal Agency for Civic Education and South Africa’s Truth and Reconciliation Commission.
