LOANS FOR TAX REFORMS TO REACH RP200 BILLION
Jakarta, June 22 (ANTARA) - Director General of Taxes Darmin Nasution said external loans needed to finance the second round of tax reforms will account for 10-15 percent of state budget funds allocated to his office.
"The amount will only be 10-15 percent (of the budget allocations for the office). It will not be more than 15 percent," he said here on Monday.
The loans needed for the second round of tax reforms which would be carried out from 2009 to 2013 would reach Rp200 billion to Rp300 billion, he said.
He said the budget allocations for the directorate general of taxes in 2009 reached Rp4 trillion of which 50 percent went to employees' salaries.
"The budget allocations for the directorate general of taxes decline as the first round of tax reforms has been completed," he said.
He said his office had also received foreign grants among others from Sweden, the United States, Australia, Japan and the European Union to reform the country's tax system.
The second round of tax reforms would focus on improving the management of human resources and upgrading information and communication technology (ICT), he said.
One of the projects to develop the ICT was the project for Indonesian tax administration reform (Pintar), he said.
He said Pintar was a program designed to improve the tax administration system to support the activities of the directorate general of taxes.
Pintar adopted international tax administration system in terms of tax services and control of taxpayers' obedience, he said.***2***
