 note = {application/pdf, IDP000235_001, This paper analyzes the newly institutionalized political system in
democratizing Indonesia, with particular reference to the presidential
system. Consensus has not yet been reached among scholars on whether
the Indonesian president is strong or weak. This paper tries to answer
this question by analyzing the legislative and partisan powers of the
Indonesian president. It must be acknowledged, however, that these two
functions do not on their own explain the strengths and weaknesses of the
president. This paper suggests that in order to fully understand the
presidential system in Indonesia, we need to take into account not just the
president's legislative and partisan powers, but also the legislative process
and the characteristics of coalition government.},
