All parties are satisfied with the outcome of the agreement. In a speech on 9 July 1945, Sukarno himself described the Jakarta Charter as a gentlemen`s agreement between nationalist and Islamist groups. This statement is welcomed by almost all parties. Islamic groups that are persistently fighting for Islam as the foundation of the country in the Muslim-majority country have also endorsed jakarta`s charter. Each party already feels properly represented in its own interest. Signatures signed by Sukarno, M. Hatta, A.A. Maramis, Abikusno Tjokrosujoso, A.K. Muzakkir, Agus Salim, A. Subardjo, A. Wahid Hasyim and Moch. Yamin as a representative of all political groups became proof of the noble agreement.
According to Djarnawi Hadikusuma, Ki Bagus Hadikusuma was willing to compromise on the condition that the publisher of “Deity” was equipped to become “The True God” and became the first commandment. “The true God” is nothing more than a confirmation of the concept of Tawhid in a form more acceptable to nationalist and Christian groups. But the main reason why Ki Bagus weakened Hadikusuma`s attitude, because he saw that the newly independent nation needed confidence to come out as a nation liberated from colonialism. In addition, Ki Bagus Hadikusuma saw that Indonesian Muslims could still fight for their religious interests through the Constitution. Kasman Singodimedjo had an ideological closeness to Ki Bagus Hadikusuma because he was registered as a member and also as an executive of Muhammadiyah. Kasman`s perseverance and logical reasoning convinced Ki Bagus Hadikusuma to accept the proposal to abolish the “seven words” in the Jakarta Charter. In addition to the individual capacity factor Kasman Singodimedjo, the ideological engzing factor, namely the relationship between the two as Muhammadiyah`s team, contributed to the success of the negotiation process. The mutual agreement reached during the formulation of Pancasila has often been described in recent times by many observers as the “greatest gift” of Muslims to the Indonesian nation. (Hadikusuma, the river of renewal… 104-105). If all parties were in agreement with what happened with this nation, all parties should have ended the debate on the validity of Pancasila and the spirit of the Jakarta Charter. So far, there is no clause in the Sukarno decree 50 years ago.
Until the amendment of the Constitution from 1945 until four times from 1999 to 2002, the editorial clause that underpinned the revision of the 1945 Constitution was not in question. This indicates that the gentlemen`s agreement remains in force and that it should be the cornerstone of the construction of this country and this nation. One of the most fundamental parts of the nation`s history is “Pancasila.” Pancasila, which means “five commandments,” was agreed as a philosophy and a fundamental nation for the implementation of the State of Indonesia.
