Human Rights as Equal Rights

"We could learn a lot from crayons: some are sharp, some are pretty, some are dull, some have weird names, and all are different colors. But they all have to learn to live in the same box.”- Anonim-

Those words are reminding about human rights itself, all Humans are different. Their skins, cultures, race, languages, the way of life, moreover the way of smiling. Whatever the form is, human have the same rights without exception. The right to life, the right to get up every morning, work, have families, have perspective, live happily and the right to refuse anything. The concept of human rights principles is universal and at any time should remain the same. Apart from the fear of Asian countries to the influence of the western countries, human must return to the original context of human rights in the form of natural rights. All Countries in Asia and Western have the same goal in upholding human rights. Countries like America, Britain, Indonesia, even the institution like the UN have the same goal in enforcing human rights.
John Locke, a philosopher who formulated natural rights, such as the right to life, liberty, and property as well as a handle to inspire the American people during the revolt against British rule in 1776. John Locke was the pioneer of the basic rights which was seen clearly in the Declaration of Independence of the United States, known as the Declaration of Independence OF THE UNITED STATES. American Revolution with its Declaration of Independence on July 4, 1776, a declaration of independence that was announced by acclamation by the 13 countries section, was also a charter of human rights because it contains the statement
"Behold, all nations are created equal degree by the Supreme Creator. That all human are endowed by the Creator's right to life, liberty, and freedom to enjoy happiness”
John Locke described the state of the status of the naturalist, when human beings have basic rights as individuals. In these circumstances together, to live more advanced as it is called with the civilization status, Locke argued that humans are located as citizens of their basic rights protected by the state.[1]
Britain is often touted as the first country in the world which fights for human rights. The first milestone for the victory of human rights occurred in the UK. The struggle is visible in the presence of various documents state that successfully developed and validated. The first document was the Magna Charta which was sparked on June 15, 1215 which contains the basic principle limitation of royal power and human rights more important than the sovereignty of the king. None of the free citizen can be detained or deprived of their wealth or exiled or in any way deprived of his rights, but based on legal considerations. Magna Charta signifies the victory which has been achieved because of certain rights that the principle has been recognized and guaranteed by the government. The Charter is a symbol of the emergence of the protection of human rights because it teaches that the law and the law degree higher than the power of the king.[2] The second is the Petition of Rights which contains questions about people's rights and their guarantee. The petition was filed by the nobles to the king in front of parliament in 1628.[3] The third is Hobeas Corpus Act is a law governing the detention of a person created in 1679.[4]

Human Rights in Indonesia based on Pancasila which means the Human Rights received a strong guarantee of the nation's philosophy. Leading to the Pancasila is intended that the implementation of human rights must pay attention to the lines specified in the provisions of the philosophy of Pancasila. For the Indonesian, carrying out human rights does not mean carrying freely, but must consider the provisions contained in the Indonesia’s view of life, the Pancasila. This is due basically that there is no rights that can be carried out regardless of the absolute rights of others. Each right will be limited by the rights of others. If in exercising their rights people do not pay attention to the rights of others, then what happens is a clash of rights or interests in the life of society, nation, and state of the Republic of Indonesia recognizes and upholds human rights and basic human freedom as a right bestowed by human who should be protected, respected, and enforced to improve human dignity, prosperity, happiness, and intelligence and justice. Various human rights instruments owned by the Republic of Indonesia, namely: Law - Constitution 1945.Ketetapan MPR No. XVII / MPR / 1998 on Human Rights. Act - Act No. 39 of 1999 on Human Rights.[5]

UN also upholds the rights with the holding of Universal Declaration of Human Rights which stated that everyone has the Right to have Life, Freedom and security agency, acknowledged his personality, earned the same recognition with others under the law to get legal guarantees in criminal cases, as examined in public, to be presumed innocent unless there is valid evidence, entry and exit the territory of a State, obtaining asylum, get a nationality, obtaining title to property, free to express thoughts and feelings, free religion, Removing the opinion, and assembly, get a social warranty, get a job, Trade, get proper education, participate in the cultural movement in society and scientific progress, and enjoy the arts.[6]

Basically, humans are the same. Human beings have equal rights of human and also have the same obligation. All the people of Asia and Western would like to get the same equality and living in a beautiful tolerance. Western nations could have a high tolerance value to the families of the "minority". As an example, marriage is legalized in the Netherlands among gender, skin color does not matter in presidential elections in the United States, the rights of persons with disabilities are respected and fulfilled in the public streets in many developed countries, the diversity of beliefs are allowed to grow while not disturbing the other people. This is a view in which humans are able to see each other equally. The view of the Human Rights is a banner which suspends the existence of human beings worth of respect-all its forms.
