The implementation of public health services faces problems concerning the president regulations about the increase of health insurance fee.

The existence of regulation of recall rights of political parties as regulated in Law No. 17 of 2014 and Law No. 2 of 2008 bring a great influence on the position of legislative members. Based on these rules, legislators may be dismissed from their positions if proposed by Political Party. This certainly brings a polemic for the people as the sovereign owner, who have chosen their representatives through the electoral process, but when chosen representatives of the people can be dismissed from his position by a political parties through the mechanism of the right of recall. This research was done by doctrinal method approach as well as the use of the statute, historical, and conceptual approach. This results showed that the legal politics of recall right of political parties is actually only used as an instrument of the political parties in controlling its members in parliament in order to always adhere to the party's policy direction. This makes the recall right political party is legal products that characterized conservative or orthodox. The existence of a political party's recall rights order gives a great authority to the political parties to negate the result of the people's choice as the holder of sovereignty for the sake of the political party. The function of political parties as a means of political recruitment in the process of filling political office in this case as members of the legislature, should have been completed after the people chose their representatives through electoral mechanisms. Therefore, it is necessary for the reconstruction of the ideal and relevant recall rights arrangement to the people's sovereignty.

A constitution is a written regulation and a state convention (state administration) that determines the composition and position of state bodies, regulates relations between the bodies, and regulates the relationships between these bodies and the citizens. The enactment of a constitution as a binding fundamental law is based on the highest power or the principle of sovereignty adopted by a certain country. If the country adheres to the notion of popular sovereignty, then the source of the legitimacy of the constitution is the people. If monarchical sovereignty is applied, then the monarch will determine whether or not a constitution may be enforced. A constitution also contains regulations for the election of regional heads. Regional head elections are one of the characteristics of a state that applies democratic principles.

The method used in this research is normative juridical, namely by reviewing the norms of Constitution, laws and other sources of legal material, including journals. The results of this research are that regional heads in Majapahit were directly elected by the Prabu (King). It was a District/majority representative system since the regional heads were directly elected by the king, an Organic and Non-Democratic electoral system. Whereas in Indonesia, regional heads (Governors, Regents and Mayors) are democratically elected, elected directly by the people or by the Provincial, Regential and Municipal House of Representatives (district representation system based on the majority and balance).

The purpose of this article is to find out how the comparison of the constitutions of Indonesia and Switzerland is related to the mechanism for amendment the constitutions of the those State. The results of this study indicate that in changing the constitution Indonesia must have 2/3 members of the MPR. Meanwhile, Switzerland in making amendment to their constitution gives the people veto rights to participate in determining amendment to their State's constitution. The conclusion in this study is that the Indonesian constitution is more rigid than the Switzerland constitution, the rules regarding amendment to the constitution that are rigid after the fourth amendment can be returned as the rules for changing the constitution before the amendment are more flexible, this will have a positive effect on the constitutional system in Indonesia. The writer's suggestion in this paper is that the Executive and Legislative Institutions immediately make a fifth amendment to replace outdated rules and strengthen the existing government system in Indonesia

ABSTRACT Conventions has the same legal force by law, because it is accepted and executed, even the convention can shift the written laws. Constitution change, one of them can be reached through the convention, because the constitution is open to be evaluated and refined over time through political mechanisms. To make changes and improvements in the constitution can be developed through amendments or changes as stipulated in Article 37 of the Constitution of 1945 can also be done through a constitutional convention. Convention by constitutional law experts recognized as one of the sources of constitutional law that can be used in the preparation of the implementation system of the Republic of Indonesia as the law states that sovereignty of the people. Almost all modern countries in the world beside it has the constitution (the written Constitution) in the practice of state administration also acknowledges the convention. There are convention in every constitutional system, especially in democracies. For Indonesia, the convention grew by or in accordance with the needs of the Indonesian state. Therefore it should be understood that the convention can not be"imported" form the constitutional system of other countries may be different principle and character with the state system of Indonesia. Parliamentary system that has been entrenched in the constitutional system in western countries, are certainly not in accordance with the constitutional system of Indonesia under the Act of 1945.
