        "summary": "MPR Deputy Speaker Lestari Moerdijat has called for the ongoing revision of the National Education System Bill to be grounded in the philosophical teachings of Ki Hajar Dewantara, particularly the Tri Pusat Pendidikan concept. She argued that education discourse has become overly focused on administrative nomenclature, losing its deeper essence. The discussion highlighted the need for synergy between family, school, and community, alongside the integration of culture and Pancasila values, to prepare for the Indonesia Emas 2045 vision.",
        "content": "<p>Deputy Speaker of the People\u2019s Consultative Assembly (MPR) Lestari\nMoerdijat has highlighted the importance of applying Ki Hajar\nDewantara\u2019s Tri Pusat Pendidikan (Three Centres of Education) teachings\nto strengthen the national education system. The statement was made\nduring the MPR\u2019s Forum Diskusi Aktual Berbangsa dan Bernegara, themed\n\u2018Reviving the Tri Pusat Pendidikan\u2019, held jointly with the Sarinah\nInstitute at the Nusantara IV Building, Senayan Parliament Complex,\nJakarta, on Thursday (25\/6). On that occasion, Lestari stressed that the\nongoing discussion on the National Education System Bill (RUU Sisdiknas)\nmust return to the great national philosophies, especially those\nconceived by the Father of Indonesian Education. In her remarks, Rerie,\nas Lestari is affectionately known, noted that discussions on education\noften get trapped in nomenclature and administrative aspects, thereby\nlosing their philosophical essence. Rerie emphasised the importance of\nbringing the issue of education to a deeper level, namely the very soul\nof education itself. This aligns with the Tri Pusat Pendidikan concept\ncoined by Ki Hajar Dewantara, which emphasises the synergy of three main\nenvironments in educating a child: family, school, and community.\nAccording to Rerie, who is also a member of House Commission X, Ki Hajar\nDewantara\u2019s thinking is becoming increasingly relevant amidst the\ncurrent dynamics of education. Rerie highlighted that the education\nmodel cannot solely focus on teaching methods, but must also consider\nhow to create a supportive ecosystem. The Tri Pusat Pendidikan teachings\nremind us that the responsibility for education does not rest solely on\nthe shoulders of teachers and schools, but is a shared responsibility\namong family, school, and community. Rerie criticised several practices\nthat have persisted in the education system, one of which is the\nmistaken interpretation of parental involvement. She cautioned that\nparental involvement is not merely physical presence at every school\nactivity, but a deep understanding of the substance of a child\u2019s\neducation. \u2018This deep understanding is one of the important aspects\nwithin the family environment as the first and foremost centre of\neducation,\u2019 said Rerie. Furthermore, Rerie noted the lack of profound\nthinking regarding culture in the process of discussing the education\nsystem. In her view, culture, as a product of intellectual work from the\nteaching and learning process, must become an integral part of the\neducation system. This is in line with Ki Hajar Dewantara\u2019s concept,\nwhich places culture as one of the important principles in education\nthrough Pancadharma. The senior board member of the NasDem Party\nreminded that the proper implementation of the national education system\nis key to welcoming the Indonesia Emas 2045 vision. In the context of\nthe ongoing revision of the Sisdiknas Law, Rerie stressed the importance\nof critical inputs that touch on philosophical aspects, not just\nadministrative technicalities. Sarinah Institute Director Eva Kusuma\nSundari assessed that currently no one is managing the parenting aspect\nin the education process. Eva also affirmed the importance of instilling\nPancasila values in efforts to build the character of the nation\u2019s\nchildren. Education within the family to instil prevailing norms and\nvalues is crucial in fortifying children against the threat of violence\nin society. According to Eva, the internalisation of Pancasila values\nmust be applicable within the family. Education activist Indra\nCharismiadji opined that managing national education should practically\nlearn from the operations of online motorcycle taxis, where the pick-up\nand drop-off points, as well as the required costs, must be clear from\nthe start. According to Indra, with relatively low PISA scores and the\n2045 Long-Term Development Plan (RPJP) targeting a per capita income of\nUS$30,000 per year, this is impossible to achieve if the education\nsector is not immediately reformed. Quoting Ki Hajar Dewantara, Indra\nasserted that education is a life guide within an ecosystem centred on\nthree realms: family, community, and school. \u2018Unfortunately, our\neducation has so far only been centred on schools,\u2019 said Indra. Sukma\nFoundation Executive Director Ahmad Baedowi argued that a good school\nmust properly manage its School Budget Plan (APBS). \u2018If the APBS plan is\nwrong, the education process fails, and that is what often happens in\nschools today,\u2019 said Baedowi. A number of issues emerged during the\ndiscussion, which was attended by Doni Koesoema Albertus (UMN Serpong),\nDudung Abdul Qodir (PB PGRI), Sulaiman (Buddhist Education Coordination\nBoard\/BKPB), Ki Darmaningtyas (Taman Siswa College), and Ubaid from the\nIndonesian Education Monitoring Network, including matters related to\nthe new student admission system, education budgets, and invalid\neducation data in the national education development process.<\/p>",
