The Constitution underpins state institutions' powers. Multiple constitutional modifications have given Indonesia a legislative-focused system. In legislative-heavy systems, the House of Representatives (Dewan Perwakilan Rakyat, or DPR) has more power than other governmental organs. Increased DPR authority, especially legislatively, is obvious. Law-based systems have many consequences. Law proliferation, slower decision-making, legislative authority decline, and executive reliance on the legislative branch are among these. This scenario goes against the fundamental principles of the separation of powers and checks and balances. In order to tackle this issue, it is imperative to consider a restructuring of the legislative authority model. One potential solution could be to look towards the United States and adopt a similar legislative authority model.
