One of the human rights is freedom of thought and opinion. This right or freedom is contained in various laws. This freedom of thought and opinion is of course very necessary, especially in an era where democracy seems to be the most widely embraced in various countries. This is because the democratic system emphasizes the greatest possible sovereignty on the people or citizens. However, there are problems related to freedom of thought and opinion. Furthermore, the writer who comes from Indonesia also wants to introduce a state basis that is owned by Indonesia. In Indonesia there is a state foundation called Pancasila. Pancasila itself is a state foundation which is the hallmark of the Indonesian nation. This is because Pancasila is indeed suitable and in accordance with the soul, personality, and ideals of the Indonesian state and nation. The Fourth Principle contains a basis that supports the freedom of thought and opinion for all Indonesian people. However, this freedom of thought and opinion is of course limited by law; this is mainly done to anticipate if there is an abuse of freedom of thought and opinion that deviates from the common goal, namely the common good. From that reason, there is no freedom of human rights, namely freedom of thought and opinion that is purely absolute and unlimited. This limitation is needed especially to ensure that the common good can be realized properly.
