terbentuknya negara kesatuan republik Indonesia, pancasila serta UUD 1945

Summary

The script narrates the formation of the Republic of Indonesia and the emergence of Pancasila and the 1945 Constitution during the waning days of the Pacific War. As Japan's power waned, they promised Indonesian independence, leading to the establishment of BPUPKI in March 1945, chaired by Radjiman Wedyodiningrat. BPUPKI held several sessions discussing the foundation of the Indonesian state, with key figures like Soekarno contributing. The first PPKI session on August 18, 1945, confirmed the 1945 Constitution and the Pancasila preamble, after a debate on the first principle's implication for non-Muslims, which was resolved by changing it to 'the belief in one supreme God.' The PPKI sessions led to the selection of the President and Vice President, the establishment of a national committee, and the formation of the National Party of Indonesia and the People's Security Body (BKR).
