As far as I know, the 20% requirement is not in the original UUD 1945. It is in the fourth amendment of the constitution in 2002 or 2003 (I don’t remember the exact date).
Mahkamah KonstitusI also has a recent ruling on this. It concludes that government budget violates the (amended) constitution.
Hmmm . . . isn’t that just great! Everyone is now a strict constructionist when it comes to the rule-of-law. That does take some serious balls to use a “reluctance to break the law” argument in order to avoid spending on EDUCATION of all things!!
