Jakarta (VNA) – Indonesian Finance Minister Purbaya Yudhi Sadewa pledged to swiftly fix the country’s troubled digital taxation platform, Coretax, after months of technical glitches hindered collections. Minister Purbaya also said the government could consider establishing a State Revenue Agency (BPN) if efforts to optimise revenue from taxes and customs duties fail to meet targets. At the press conference, Minister Purbaya stressed that tax rates will not be raised, instead, economic growth will be encouraged to boost revenue naturally. Indonesia is targeting 3,147.7 trillion IDR (195 billion USD) in state revenue next year, of which 2,357.7 trillion IDR will come from taxes, a 13.5% increase from this year’s outlook. ADB estimates suggest that tax reforms, including a fully functional Coretax, could add 1.28 percentage points to the ratio by 2030./.
