Which historical document, formulated on 22 June 1945 by Panitia Sembilan, contained the preliminary preamble of the 1945 Constitution including the seven words regarding Sharia obligation later deleted on 18 August 1945?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: D. The Jakarta Charter (Piagam Jakarta)
- Step 1: Panitia Sembilan drafted the Jakarta Charter (Piagam Jakarta) on 22 June 1945. Step 2. It included the phrase 'dengan kewajiban menjalankan syariat Islam bagi pemeluk-pemeluknya'. Step 3. To preserve national unity with eastern Indonesia, Mohammad Hatta and PPKI leaders removed the seven words on 18 August 1945, replacing it with 'Ketuhanan Yang Maha Esa'. Answer: The Jakarta Charter (Piagam Jakarta). Why not the others: Linggadjati and Roem-van Roijen are bilateral diplomatic treaties with the Dutch; Sumpah Pemuda took place in 1928.
