Abstract

In the constitutional legal structure of the Democratic Republic of Timor-Leste, the constitution is always interpreted as official state documents which only contain a portion of the text of the regulation that underlies the constitution of RDTL as the womb of the Maubere homeland. Even though in modern countries, the constitution has transcended the civilization of the times, this is also part of Socrates^ reflection, who dreamed of an ideal state that is ordered by the constitution and has its own legal sovereignty. Thus, the constitution is like a tourism guide with rules and principles that indicate the beliefs and values of members who live, grow and live with the community, the dynamics of legal thought developed by Prof. Sajipto Rahardjo on search, enlightenment, and liberation. The fact shows that the country is already independent, but the law is still chained by the colonial power. This research is a normative legal research that aims to examine the mirror of the constitution of the Democratic Republic of Timor-Leste in the tourism law frame. Returning to the issue of the constitution as the supreme law, which all people must obey without exception. A new problem arises, namely, who will guarantee that constitutional provisions are carried out by the Executive Body or other government bodies per the rules in the text. As has been emphasized in the constitution of RDTL, in Article 2, paragraphs (1) and (2), sovereignty is in the hands of the people, who will use it in the manner and in the form stipulated in the constitution and in paragraph (2) that the state is subject to constitutions and laws.
