Committee of Nine (Indonesia)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Committee of Nine, (Indonesian: Panitia Sembilan) formed on June 1, 1945, was created during the second session of the Investigating Committee for Preparatory Work for Independence (BPUPKI) with the purpose of drafting the foundational principles for the future Indonesian state.[1] Tasked with reconciling the differing views of the nationalist and Islamist groups within the BPUPKI regarding what Indonesia's foundational state principles should be,[2] the committee produced the Jakarta Charter on June 22, 1945, after many discussions and compromises.[3] The charter declared Indonesia's independence and the state's principles namely belief in God, humanity, unity, democracy, and social justice.[1] After modifications were made to the charter to ensure national unity and address the concerns of non-Muslim groups, such as removal of Islam-centered phrases,[3] the Jakarta Charter was adopted as the preamble to the 1945 Indonesian Constitution.[3] The changes were proposed by Muhammad Hatta during the August 18, 1945, BPUPKI meeting, a day after Indonesia proclaimed its independence on August 17, 1945.[4][5]
