<p>People’s Consultative Assemly (hereinafter reffered to <em>MPR</em>) membership consisting of members of the House of Representative (hereinafter reffered to <em>DPR</em><em>)</em> and Regional Representative Council (hereinafter reffered to <em>DPD</em><em>)</em> members indicates that the <em>MPR</em> is still viewed as a representative body of the people because of its membership elected in the general election. The change of position of the People's Consultative Assembly (<em>MPR</em>), then the understanding of the form of popular sovereignty is reflected in three branches of power, namely the representative institution, the President, and the holder of the judicial power. Problem formulation discussed are: 1) How is the position of the People's Consultative Assembly as the implementer of people's sovereignty in Indonesia before the amendment of the 1945 Constitution? 2) How the position of MPR members coming from the <em>DPD</em> after the Amendment of the 1945 Constitution of the Republic of Indonesia. The research method used in this research is Normative Law research method, which uses secondary data. The discussion in this research: 1) the MPR as the executor of the sovereignty of the People in Indonesia, prior to the 1945 amendment, we see in the provisions On Article 1 paragraph (2) of the 1945 Constitution stipulates that: "Sovereignty is in the hands of the people, and carried out according to the law basic". In the above article it contains three meanings, namely: a). The sovereignty of the people is implemented by all state institutions established in the Constitution, b). The sovereignty of the people must be subject to the constitution, c) constitutional supremacy. People's sovereignty is limited by the rules of the Constitution and constitutional democracy. 2) Position of MPR members originating from DPD after the Amendment of the 1945 Constitution of the Republic of Indonesia. After the fourth amendment of the 1945 Constitution, (hereinafter referred to as the 1945 Constitution of the Republic of Indonesia), there is a fairly fundamental change in both the state administration system and the state institutions in Indonesia .</p>

The sovereignty of the people is one of the principles of Indonesian state administration, contained in the Preamble and Articles in the 1945 Constitution of the Republic of Indonesia, implemented through the People's Consultative Assembly (MPR). But after the Amendment to the 1945 Constitution, the position of the MPR in the Proclamation Constitution has been placed as the highest state institution and the holder of popular sovereignty, and today based on the institutional structure of the state, the People’s Consultative Assembly (MPR) has been degraded becoming an equal institution with other State institutions. Such implications, which are certainly seen from a constitutional perspective, have injured Pancasila democracy, which is based on deliberation and consensus, resulting in no more oversight mechanisms that can be carried out against various state institutions, including the President, and this in turn has led to liberal democracy based on individualism. Therefore, a comprehensive study is needed to reinstate the MPR as the highest state institution and holder of popular sovereignty in the format of State institutions in Indonesia as a representation of all Indonesian people based on deliberation and consensus in every decision making.

The Republic of Indonesia is a state based on the rule of law in implementing state administration based on Pancasila and the 1945 Constitution. The administration of government with a democratic system in which the highest sovereignty is in the hands of the people and in its implementation the people elect a leader to run the government. To determine the regional leader / regional head must be carried out through regional head elections. Regional head elections are intended to continue the government which has ended its term of office. Therefore, regional head elections must be held simultaneously throughout the territory of the Republic of Indonesia. The holding of regional head elections is a big job and is the responsibility of all parties, including all citizens of the Republic of Indonesia, so that the implementation of regional head elections runs well. The regional head elections in question have been held and are the result of the hard work of various relevant state institutions that have carried out their duties and responsibilities, in this case the General Election Commission (KPU) which has held regional head elections simultaneously throughout the territory of the Unitary State of the Republic of Indonesia (NKRI). ). The 1945 Constitution of the Republic of Indonesia regulates the voting rights of citizens to participate and actively participate in determining regional leaders / regional heads who will lead in their respective territories. Citizens have the right to vote to vote at regional head elections. This is of course an awareness and responsibility as citizens so that regional leaders / regional heads are elected who are able to organize government and create prosperity and justice based on the values contained in the principles of Pancasila. The problem in this research is how a juridical study of the awareness of citizens to use their voting rights in implementing democracy in regional head elections?This research is a normative juridical research with the Library Research research method. The data collection method uses secondary data in the form of primary legal materials and secondary and tertiary legal materials. The population in this study is a random population of residents / community of Pengkol hamlet, Mangunsari village, Gunung pati District, Semarang City. The results of the research show that people in this region as citizens of the Republic of Indonesia have the awareness and responsibility to exercise their voting rights in the implementation of regional head elections, especially the election for Mayor and Deputy Mayor of Semarang on December 9, 2020. Regional head elections in this region have been going well and in a conducive situation even though it was held during the Covid-19 pandemic.

The main problem of this research triggers by the fact that Indonesia fundamental constitutional system changed into the 1945 Constitution. The changes affected the structure and structural mechanism of state institutions. The main purpose of this study is to analyze the philosophical question of the basic root formed in the 1945 Constitution as a new constitution of Indonesia. Regarding the organization and institution of the state can be started by questioning the essence of power that is institutionalized or organized into the state. The results showed that it is also important to know how the principle of popular sovereignty is reflected in the structure and mechanisms of state and government institutions that guarantee the establishment of the legal system and the functioning of the democratic system. At the theory level in terms of state institutions, with the various state commissions, how the principle of popular sovereignty is organized into institutional functions can be patterned into state institutions that are equal and mutually balanced in forms of checks and balances. From a normative perspective, the sources of state institutional authority can be used as a reference in the structuring of state institutions by considering shifts and the development of state administration, especially with the state commissions that occurred after changes to the 1945 Constitution.

Pasca amandemen UUD Negara Republik Indonesia 1945 Pasal 33 ayat (3) yang berbunyi “Bumi, air dan kekayaan yang terkandung di dalamnya dikuasai oleh negara dan dipergunakan sebesar-besarnya bagi kemakmuran rakyat” penguasaan negara yang ada dalam Pasal 33 ayat (3) tersebut hanya mengatur pada bumi, air dan yang terkandung di dalamnya. Padahal saat ini keberadaan ruang angkasa berhubungan erat dengan hajat hidup orang banyak, salah satunya pemanfaatan GSO (geo stationary orbit) yang merupakan sumber daya alam terbatas. Sehingga hal tersebut menimbulkan masalah baru khususnya bagi Indonesia sebagai negara khatulistiwa yang mana penempatan GSO berada di atasnya. Masalah tersebut adalah bagaimana internalisasi terkait konsep penguasaan negara menurut Pasal 33 ayat (3) UUD NRI 1945 terhadap pemanfaatan sumber daya alam yang ada dalam wilayah ruang angkasa, serta bagaimana regulasi-regulasi yang mengatur terkait pemanfaatan sumber daya alam di wilayah ruang angkasa apakah sudah sesuai dipergunakan sebesar-besarnya bagi kemakmuran rakyat. Dalam penelitian ini digunakan metode penelitian analisis kualitatif. Hasil dari penelitian ini memberikan gambaran bahwa keberadaan ruang angkasa memiliki peranan penting bagi setiap negara, khususnya keberadaan GSO sebagai sumber daya alam terbatas, keberadan GSO hanya ada di atas khatulistiwa dan Indonesia salah satu negara yang dilalui garis khatulistiwa. Beragam konvensi internasional yang telah disahkan ke dalam peraturan di Indonesia maupun regulasi yang ada di Indonesia berkenaan dengan pemanfaatan ruang angkasa sampai saat ini belum memberikan manfaat dan pengaturan yang komprehensif terkait memanfaatkan sumber daya alam yang terkandung dalam wilayah ruang angkasa tersebut, sehingga menjadi suatu keharusan bagi Indonesia sebagai negara yang berdaulat untuk memberikan jaminan secara konstitusional bagi keberadaan sumber daya alam yang ada dalam wilayah ruang angkasa untuk dipergunakan sebesar-besarnya bagi kemakmuran rakyat.After the amendment to the 1945 Constitution of the Republic of Indonesia Article 33 paragraph (3) that stated "The land, the water and the natural resources within shall be under the powers of the State and shall be used to the greatest benefit of the people" the state authorities in Article 33 paragraph (3) only regulates earth, water and and the natural resources within. Whereas today, the existence of the outer space is closely associated with the lives of many people, as such, the utilization of GSO (Geostationary Orbit) which is a limited natural resource. So that it rises new issues, especially for Indonesia as an equatorial country where the placement of GSOs is above it. The problem is how to internalization the utilization of natural resources in outer space (related to the concept of state authorities according to Article 33 paragraph (3) of the 1945 Constitution of the Republic of Indonesia), and how the regulation that regulates the utilitazion of natural resources in outer space are appropriately used to the greatest benefit of the people. This study aims to answer these two issuess by investigating normatively or library research. This law research conducted by analyzing secondary data from primary, secondary and tertiary materials. In this qualitative analysis research, the secondary data from primary, secondary and tertiary materials connected to each other and interpreted in order to find answers to solve the research issues. The results of this study provide an overview about the existence of outer space which has an important role for every country, especially the existence of the GSO as a limited natural resource. GSO only exists above the equator and Indonesia is one of the countries which is passed by the equator. International conventions that have been ratified into Indonesian regulations and regulations in Indonesia relating to the utilization of outer space have not provided a comprehensive benefits and regulations related to utilizing natural resources contained in these outer space areas, so that it becomes a necessity for Indonesia as a sovereign country to provide constitutional guarantees for the existence of natural resources that exist in the outer space to be used as much as possible for the prosperity of the people.

This study aims to determine the position of the functions and authority of the Regional Representative Council based on the 1945 Constitution of the Republic of Indonesia and the urgency of strengthening the function of the Regional Representative Council as a regional representative in national policy making at the central level. The research method used is a normative legal research method that focuses on library research, namely the search for legal materials consisting of primary legal materials, secondary legal materials, and tertiary legal materials. to obtain secondary data from legal materials. The normative approach is carried out by reviewing the provisions or regulations in force. Basically, the existence of the Regional Representative Council through an amendment to the 1945 Constitution of the Republic of Indonesia is based on the existence of 2 (two) factors, namely democratization and efforts to accommodate regions in making national policies, theoretically the existence of the Regional Representative Council is intended to apply the principle of checks and balances between state institutions, namely the process of mutual supervision and balance between State institutions. This was done to strengthen central and regional relations in order to maintain the integrity and unity of the unitary state of the Republic of Indonesia. However, based on the amendment results of the 1945 Constitution of the Republic of Indonesia the authority of the Regional Representative Council to carry out its function as a regional representative is still inadequate, so the desire to implement the principle of checks and balances between State institutions is still not realized.

This research is aimed to find and introduce a new idea on the state administration, which has implications on the international treaty ratification procedure followed by Indonesia and additional authorizations of the Constitutional Court of the Republic of Indonesia. The judicial preview in this research is an international treaty examination procedure by the Constitutional Court before an international treaty is transformed into a law, i.e. such international treaty is a Bill. The judicial preview shall have different terms in each country, such as Review ex ante, abstract review, judicial review. This procedure is applied when an international treaty has not been validated as a country’s national law. The benefits of a judicial preview shall be a solution to connect an ambiguity between the state administrative law and international law. The judicial preview is also the inter-state institutions real check and balance on the international treaty. Out of benchmarking results of four countries following the monism doctrine, i.e. Russia, Germany, France, and Italty and two countries following the dualism doctrine, i.e. Hungary and Ecuador, several additional authorizations of the Constitutional Court shall be summarized, i.e. via the Amendment of 1945 Constitution of the Republic of Indonesia and/or regulations via laws. If both manners are not possible, the Constitutional Court may apply the judicial preview as a state administrative practice. An international treaty draft, which has passed through the judicial preview, may not be submitted to the Constitutional Court to be performed a judicial review, unless 5 (five) year-period has passed since the bill is enacted as a law.

This paper discusses the supervision of the Ombudsman in the implementation of public services. The state is obliged to provide public services to every citizen as a form of the constitutional mandate. The duty of public service is carried out by the State Civil Apparatus. In the practice of carrying out the functions and authorities of public services to the people carried out by the State Civil Apparatus, they have not been maximally normative based on Law number 25 of 2009, as well as implement natively. Research is Normative legal research using descriptive qualitative methods and secondary data studies from several collections of literature studies. The results of the study show that the behavior and service patterns of the State Civil Apparatus still deviate a lot from what they should, even though they have been escorted through legal instruments, both in the form of regulations, technical instructions and implementing instructions as a legal umbrella and reference to the implementation of their functions and authorities. Internal control by the relevant agencies does not seem to have been able to be a solution in solving problems of poor quality public services. This pattern, if allowed to roll out, will have an impact on the failure to realize a sound system of public service delivery by the general principles of government and corporation. The presence of the Ombudsman Commission of the Republic of Indonesia is a solution to maximize the function of public services by the State Civil Apparatus.Keywords: ombudsman,  public services, supervision ABSTRAKTulisan ini membahas tentang pengawasan Ombudsman dalam pelaksanaan pelayanan publik. Negara berkewajiban untuk memberikan layanan publik kepada setiap warga negara sebagai bentuk amanat konstitusi. Tugas pelayanan publik dilakukan oleh Aparatur Sipil Negara. Dalam praktik menjalankan fungsi dan wewenang pelayanan publik kepada orang-orang yang dilakukan oleh Aparatur Sipil Negara, mereka belum secara normatif maksimal berdasarkan UU No. Penelitian adalah penelitian hukum normatif menggunakan metode deskriptif kualitatif dan studi data sekunder dari beberapa kumpulan studi literatur. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa perilaku dan pola pelayanan Aparatur Sipil Negara masih menyimpang dari apa yang seharusnya, meskipun mereka telah dikawal melalui instrumen hukum, baik dalam bentuk peraturan, instruksi teknis dan instruksi pelaksanaan sebagai payung hukum dan referensi untuk pelaksanaan fungsi dan wewenang mereka. Pengendalian internal oleh instansi terkait tampaknya tidak mampu menjadi solusi dalam menyelesaikan masalah buruknya layanan publik. Pola ini, jika dibiarkan, akan berdampak pada kegagalan mewujudkan sistem pemberian layanan publik yang baik sesuai dengan prinsip umum pemerintah dan korporasi. Kehadiran Komisi Ombudman Republik Indonesia merupakan solusi untuk memaksimalkan fungsi pelayanan publik oleh Aparatur Sipil Negara.Kata kunci: layanan publik, ombudsman, pengawasan
