The Comparison of Educational Rights between State Constitutions of Indonesia and Singapore

The constitution is the basis for a country which contains various kinds of human rights, one of which is the right to education. This study aims to find out the need for education and the constitutional comparison of the right to education applied in Indonesia and Singapore. The research uses a normative juridical approach with a comparative approach. This study aims to analyze the comparison of the constitutional rights to education applied in Indonesia and Singapore. It can be seen that the state of Singapore has succeeded in implementing reforms in education rights properly. We can see this in the quality of education in Singapore, which is in the top ranking among countries with the highest attainment of international education standards. Meanwhile, the Indonesian state still has to struggle to achieve the goal of implementing the right to education properly. The results of the different implementation of education between the two countries are due to different backgrounds, such as social, political, cultural, and economic conditions. Therefore, it can be concluded that many factors influence the success of implementing the right to education in a country.
