2011-01-24T11:49:00.003+07:00

The outpouring of Tax Mafia Gayus Tambunan - After hearing the verdict at the South Jakarta District Court, Gayus Tambunan convey pouring her heart. He expressed his frustration on the Mafia Law Eradication Task Force, especially Denny Indrayana and Mas Achmad Santosa.

On this occasion, I express my very great disappointment to the task force Mafia Eradication Law, especially to Denny Indrayana, Achmad Santosa, including Yunus Husein.

There are several points that had me keep (closed) meetings in order I would like to help, but their actions precisely muddy rupaya susaana and increasingly cornered me, as if I was villain number one in Indonesia.

Some points that I could read as follows:

I met Dennis three Indrayana March 18, 22 March and 24 March. During the meeting repeatedly said that if Dennis can be held KPK law mafia case because Dennis did not believe the Police Headquarters.

Second, my departure to Singapore on 24 March 2010 directly to the airport (Soekarno-Hatta) after meeting task force, because Denny told me not to be a victim of the same Andi Kosasih wait until Haposan arrested earlier. If Haposan been arrested, then Danny will pick me up in Singapore and brought back to Indonesia.

At the meeting in Singapore, I told Danny and Ota (Akhmad Mas Santosa) about money more than Rp50 billion in the safe deposit box. But I never told the money was from where. On several occasions, DI and Ota said that the Bakrie Group. I never stated like that.

Task Force which directs and divert from the issues that may involve tax mafia Director and Director General of Taxation. Or possibly involving legal mafia Cirus Sinaga. But fear dismantle Antasari case. Case departure to Bali who allegedly met Ical, to Macau and Singapore untukamankan assets and backed strongman.

By way of deliberately upload photos to your Twitter picture of his passport, so that people's attention
not to the Director and the Director General of Taxes, or to the Cirus Sinaga.

Dennis not only communicate with my wife to be truthful, but did want to intimidate my wife. Denny was not empathize with a woman who was sad and depressed, her husband in prison, and taking care of children alone. In fact, forcing his wife honestly, whether meeting in Bali Ical. Though his wife had honestly not seen Ical in Bali. If emang not met, whether to say see you!

At the time in Singapore, Dennis promised me if want to dismantle the legal mafia, I will be assisted as a whistle blower. Because Dennis is close to the media, he would talk every day, so my sentence will be lightened. Denny fact I kept pushing it and make it as a political tool.

Especially the three companies that want sent bakrie revealed, Denny also promise I will be safe and comfortable during the legal process take place if I want to return to Indonesia and cooperative.

Dennis who suggested I use the services of Adnan Buyung and partners, and take a wife and mother-in-law met Buyung. But it was Denny who maneuvered themselves to the detriment of my wonderful and always shoot Bang Buyung with Ical, rather than dismantle the mafia tax that may involve the Director and the Director General of Taxes, or disassemble the possible role of Cirus Sinaga dismantle Antasari case.

One more thing based on the story John Grice to me. John Grice is a CIA agent and all its activities are known and sanctioned by a member of task force members.

Do not let the corruption case made by Gaius Tambunan hitting people's trust to the institutions and tax authorities, because in this case there is ever a movement to boycott taxes.

The slogan 'Wise Men Obedient to the Tax', in fact also applies to the tax officer. Wise council tax is the tax man who can manage well and correct tax.

What is meant by good and true is that the tax could be managed for the benefit of the nation, not for the sake of her personal bag. Confidence in the Directorate General of Taxation will quickly recover if the whole range of institutions that really shows the integrity, capacity, and good performance.

Indeed, the tax authorities are in the frontline management of the main sources of national revenue should be regarded as a hero. However, in this case is concerned is also very vulnerable and has the potential to commit crimes and treason to the people and country.

Accordingly, the Directorate General of Taxation should be holding three special instructions given by President SBY. One is asking Board to stop all forms of DG Taxation and deviations crime without waiting until the reform is completed.

Artificial Sweeteners Called Tax Holiday

2010-03-11T21:42:00.001+07:00

Artificial Sweeteners Called Tax Holiday - Tax holiday is believed to be a magnet decoy direct investment, in the middle of the image and investment climate is still blurry. Interests tug makes this policy more and more blurred.

That is why, despite the Ministry of Finance has rejected the idea of tax holiday, BKPM remained adamant that fiscal policy. As a result tug holiday tax policy would long tails.

BKPM is not alone in fighting for the implementation of the tax holiday. Because of this institution behind the Chamber of Commerce is requesting the application of a tax holiday for the output of the direct investment was no less competitive with imported products.

In addition, there is also the Ministry of Industry, promote the industry stakeholders in Indonesia through new investments in the manufacturing industry. As Head of BKPM Gita Wirjawan, the support side of the chamber pressure was due to the considerations underlying the strategic interests of investors bring.

Therefore, if you want to achieve great goals in investment, there should be fiscal incentives support. In the chamber's view, very important fiscal incentives to stimulate investment in eastern Indonesia.

In fact, the tug of this tax policy issue stems from the government's plans to develop Special Economic Zones (KEK), particularly in the Merauke, Papua. Merauke The plan will be developed into food estate in an area of 1.5 million hectares.

To realize that ambition, clearly needed the business world role. Well, to stimulate business, governments through a number of ministers and the head of BKPM promised to give tax holiday.

But nothing, sweet promise that directly countered the Ministry of Finance. The reason, tax policy is not holiday in the dictionary and taxation policies in Indonesia. But contained in the national taxation system is a fiscal incentive. The problem, the definition of this fiscal incentives alone until now are still vague. Defection with the same investment climate in Indonesia. Because look at some cases fiscal incentives that had been done by the government, was in it, there is in fact the policy was a tax holiday.

Indeed, tax holiday, tax reduction, and tax amnesty does not mean absolute tax exemption. The recipient's facilities are not tax-free pitch without taxable watercress.

The reason, various kinds of tax breaks that are usually given in the form of delayed payments or tax payments in stages. Exemption of tax liability that was given in a certain time frame.

Facilities tax holiday and tax reduction has been such a given. Some of them are still valid. In the case of Integrated Economic Development Zone (KAPET) developed since 1996, the government has several times given tax exemption facility.

Then, in the tax laws ever enacted in 2000, the government still provides various facilities tax and import duties to stimulate investment in KAPET. Unfortunately, his own KAPET trigger wilting before it develops.

Facilities taxation applicable in the environment that KAPET among others in the form, reduction of net income 30% of the total investment, depreciation and implement options or amortization, as well as the imposition of Article 26 of Income Tax on dividends by 10%. Three fasilias tax included in the category of tax reductions or tax reduction.

There's more, the government also provides facilities classified as tax holiday. Among other things, exemption of VAT / PPnBM imports of capital goods or equipment for the development / construction / expansion of Bonded Zones. This tax-free facilities provided to investors who developed the Bonded Zones in KAPET.

As for industrial building entrepreneurs in the Bonded Zones in KAPET also get exemption of VAT / PPnBM to imports of capital goods and other equipment associated with the production process. Imports of raw materials and auxiliary materials to be processed in the Bonded Zones in KAPET also free of VAT / PPnBM.

Well, if that turns out to KAPET developed wilting before the government can give tax holiday and tax reduction, why the government is now not willing to provide similar facilities? After all, the essence is the same policy. Once tax holiday does not exist in Indonesian tax books.

So even if the government is now willing to provide facilities and tax exemption tax reduction, then the facilities were not the only guarantee investors want to go. There are many other problems that interfere with the investment climate must be cleared completely. Tax holiday was just an additional sweetener alone.

"The issue is politicized EARTH tax, seems to have just made up. Perpetrator market even see the tax issue will be compromised," he said when contacted INILAH.COM, Friday (19 / 2).

According to him, the case should not have sustained a tax like this. Because the financial statements have been checked by the Earth: the independent auditor. "So if there are tax issues, should have known a few years earlier," he said.

As is known, the Directorate General of Taxes (Tax Directorate) and the Indonesian Corruption Watch (ICW) pointed to lack EARTH taxes. In the period 2003-2008 financial report, stated there is a lower tax difference of U.S. $ 1.060 billion.

EARTH positive sentiment came from his letter to the Stock Exchange at the beginning of the week, which denied the news that the government was seeking funds of U.S. $ 500juta. EARTH Management said that the news was only a speculation and can not be accounted for truth.

The capital market observers Willy Sanjaya said, EARTH shares decline on the last two days this week only reasonable correction. This is because the stock had been on Earth: 2475 level. "There was some panic in the market thus affecting the short-term stock index," he said.

Delinquent taxes must be dealt with

2010-02-15T11:46:00.001+07:00

Delinquent taxes must be dealt with - Tax is a form of community participation in development. Therefore, warning the president if there are people who do not pay taxes should be dealt with is reasonable.

President pengemplang statement about taxes, not directed to any party, including the General Chairman of Golkar Party. But obviously directed to those who have been delinquent taxes as a form of participatory development.

DPP Chairman of the Democratic Party in M Djafar Hafsah themed discussion 'When the Coalition of Broken' at Warung Daun, Cikini, Jakarta, Saturday (13 / 2), states did not agree on a statement calling the assessment of pengemplang tax SBY directed to suppress the Golkar Party politicians in Special Committee Questionnaire Century Rights to be soft.

This coincidence, there are cases of Century in the early government of SBY-Boediono. Thus, the tax was a separate matter.

It also questioned why SBY statement associated with the Century. In fact, many problems in this country other than Century case.

Century this case as if into something so very important because the mass media endlessly raised this case. News in 90 percent of the news media Century.

And Century is not the only thing that exists in this country. Communities should also need to be informed of the activities and developments by the government.

I expect (hope we all of course) the tax pengemplang have to pay taxes immediately, before any action from the government.

It is the government's position awry, giving a warning to those who do not pay taxes to blame, even

politicized. If not reminded, the government is considered quiet and so forth.

The community must understand that the tax is a form of community participation in development, all public infrastructure constructed mostly from taxes from the public.

Opponent Hitting Through Tax

2010-02-15T11:42:00.001+07:00

Opponent Hitting Through Tax - Tax matters is true economic technical problems now truly transformed into a political affair. President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono to twice raised this issue in his official statement. Business tax as a tool used to suppress anyone who is not in line with government policy.

In front of the department, President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono ordered the police to investigate tax delinquent companies. This President's desire can easily be interpreted as political pressure on those who he thought were his opponents, when in fact it is a true friend.

Daily intermittent theme of this tax return with the President also stated that the pressure is easy to be interpreted as a warning to opponents of the government's silence on the committee critical Century.

"I think that political content is not inevitable," said researcher Indonesian Survey Institute (LSI) Burhanuddin Muhtadi, to INILAH.COM. "Because this case has started since 2007. After that experience the bobbing, and has increased the issue again, at the Century Bank scandal spread to the surface. "

The same thing is said Ahmad Erani Yustika, an economist from the University of Brawijaya. "Director General tax political action should be avoided. Directorate of Taxes is also wrong when he did because the tax investigation told the Minister of Finance. If it's like that, do not bener too, "he continued.

In the beginning was the statement of Director General of Taxation stating Mochamad Tjiptardjo three companies under the banner of Bakrie trillion tax arrears. This public announcement a few days ago after his boss, the Minister of Finance Sri Mulyani, the owner pointed Aburizal Bakrie, Bakrie Group berusahaan Century dropped by the Special Committee by means of the Golkar Party he leads.

Everything was done Aburizal, such conspiracy theories are believed to the truth, because the problem of personal problems personal alias. Sri Mulyani has shifted the political problems, impersonal becomes personal problems. This is one of the main fault Sri Mulyani.

Sri Mulyani Indrawati said Aburizal did not like him. Whether dislike where Aburizal, who would charge that Sri Mulyani lightly Golkar Chairman answered that with a slightly joking way: "We are both already married. She has a husband, I have a wife, so do not like each other. "

The above sequence of events, ranging from Sri Mulyani statement Aburizal dislike about him, and then the announcement of tax Delinquent three companies within the Bakrie Group, and continued to command President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono to the ranks of the Police to enforce the law in the field of taxation, no doubt a very strong sense of political.

No need to really know the political problems to be understood that all counter-attack to be the chairman of Golkar and politically charged. Admittedly, the onslaught of the Golkar Party faction who insistently toward Sri Mulyani about his role in saving the Century Bank is considered incompetent and financial harm to the state government supporters were wondering why the party that became one of the coalition supporting it do all that.

In the view of government supporters, both coalition members would not particularly blame criticism of government policy. All members of the coalition is doing it categorized as an opponent to be attacked back, if need be dismissed from the coalition.

But this paradigm was not used Golkar. Aburizal precisely understand that the coalition is doing well is a criticism if the government was wrong and supports if true.

This is what he calls the ethical coalition. Golkar would put myself as a true friend, where the errors should be disclosed and not vice versa maalah hidden, where it is actually going to destroy my friend.

So, is wrong if the government supporters, say the Democratic Party and the President himself if put Golkar as an opponent to be destroyed by the disclosure of the chairman of business problems.

Aburizal not afraid of pressure addressed to him. "Golkar will not change his attitude about the case of Century Bank, simply because there is pressure. For nothing to do with the tax issue Golkar. I never said anything was shot dead while Golkar party attitude has not changed, "

In connection with the alleged tax arrears, Aburizal ensure the company has paid taxes in accordance with the law. If one considers the Directorate General of Taxes otherwise, let the court decide the truth.

2010-01-02T21:54:00.001+07:00

Tax Revenue in East Java Push Target

Old Car Tax Increase Not Effective

2009-12-24T18:58:00.001+07:00

Old Car Tax Increase Not Effective
Indonesia should follow the example of Singapore kendaraan.Rencana lifetime limit government raised taxes for older cars are not considered effective. The Indonesian government should follow the example of neighboring countries, Singapore, which reduces the lifetime of the motor vehicle.

"The government needs to look again, what is the purpose to raise taxes," said one of the classic car fan, Tom.

The reason the tax increase is not a big problem for owners of old cars. "If the car worth USD 20 million, and then taxed at USD 1 million. Yes, no problem," he explained.

Tom rate, lifetime limits could be effective measures to reduce congestion. It also applies Singapore to reduce vehicle usage over the age of 10 years.

He explained that the government can give permission to use the old car only on holidays, such as Saturday and Sunday. The traffic on that day considered quieter than weekdays.

On entry options and tax dodger Sanctions Justice Pain Society

On entry options and tax dodger Sanctions Justice Pain Society
Criminal allegations of tax three Bakrie Group of companies with a value loss of about USD 2.1 trillion has become the public's attention. Why?

Because the third company, PT Bumi Resources, PT Kaltim Prima Coal and PT Arutmin Indonesia, is classified as large companies, which according to public consideration, is not supposed to happen such things. This information is certainly quite surprising. Criminal cases is carried out by PT Asian Agri Group, which allegedly cost the state USD 1.3 trillion, it is still in process at the Supreme Court and has not finished completely.
To be sure, the tax law already provides that any taxpayer (WP) is convicted of a crime, should bear the heavy penalties, both administrative sanction or criminal sanctions

Criminal tax

Criminal tax cases that have been processed Directorate General of Taxes was practically enough. Throughout 2008 to 2009, for example, the Directorate General of Taxes has handed over 65 cases of alleged tax crime to the prosecutor. Was convicted of 24 cases with the number of accused 26 people.

The number of taxpayers (WP) which are liable to be viewed very little. But, the number more or less highly relative. The purpose of tax law is not merely increase the number of tax payers who would be convicted, but rather on the purpose of fulfilling the state budget coffers.

The question, the criminal process by applying administrative sanctions is often a dilemma, especially with the existence of Article 44B of Act No. KUP. 6 of 2000 which amended by Act 16 of 2009. The dilemma is the issue of authority of Minister of Finance who may request the Attorney General to stop the process of investigation for the benefit of all state revenues.

Article was confirmed, the Attorney General may terminate a tax investigation if there is a request from the Minister of Finance based on the interests of national revenue Termination of investigation would be done if the tax payers to pay off tax debt plus penalties fines four times the amount of tax paid no or less.

That way, it can be concluded that the settlement of tax payments (administrative settlement) is more important than issues committed criminal acts. Tax issue seemed more inclined to issue mere acceptance

Indeed the issue is the authority of the state revenue minister of Finance and the issue of investigation is the Attorney General authority. If the Minister of Finance looked at the issue more important state revenue, according to the Law of KUP, the Attorney General may terminate the investigation as long as tax payers to pay off debt and the sanction

The problem is, if the authority of the Minister of Finance in Article 44B is used, the impression will arise Finance Minister intervenes legal process which is the authority of the Attorney General. If this is done, can be understood if there is no legal certainty.

But, if acceptance was not achieved, the Minister of Finance may use the authority in accordance with the Act. Is this wrong? Of course not. For what is included in Article 44B of Act when not in use?
Choice dilemma sanctions be interesting to see the debate from a different point of view, and that if the choice is made criminal, meaning it does not fit with the philosophy of the tax itself. However, if the administration made a choice, as interfere with legal certainty. This is the dilemma of whether to use the use of criminal sanctions or administrative.

Administrative sanctions if the option is selected, the value of losses of Rp 2.1 trillion, the country will get the money amounting to Rp 10.5 trillion. This count obtained from the main plus points four times the sanctions that have not dibayar.Apabila Minister of Finance with Article 44B, of the consideration for the interests of the state. However, the Act does not provide an explanation or the parameters regarding the interests of national revenue

Tax dodge is not always associated with a tax crime. WP can be justified to pay a small tax throughout the recording and reporting in accordance with the Act. But, if a small tax payments due to incorrect records, the investigation can be done.

Seeing the disturbing sense of justice in the case above, in the view of some legal experts, criminal sanctions to change the administrative sanctions can touch the sense of justice in society. But, some other legal experts looked at each other, just by changing the way of applying the law refers to the applicable law, will give the desired sense of justice.

The purpose of law is not solely for legal certainty, but also to fulfill a sense of justice. Therefore, natural that have investigated WP should not be delegated to the courts but were given remission from the tax would pay off debt and sanction

In other words, the purpose of the establishment of the Act (including Act KUP) not to memida-na WP, but satisfy a sense of justice. Understanding sense of fairness in the tax law would be understood in the context of understanding the interests of the country, especially about taxes.

That is, to investigate the tax dodger remains a goal for the interests of the state revenue to meet the sense of justice for those who do not pay taxes. Pay off the tax debt plus penalties must be severe enough punishment and justice to the interests of the state tax issue is a crime not only because payers do not convey the SPT is not true. Someone who did not register with the tax payers could be categorized to a tax penalty.

Indonesia Income Tax Rate Chasing Singapore

2009-12-21T11:11:00.002+07:00

Indonesia Income Tax Rate Chasing Singapore
Income Tax Rate Income tax payers or entities that will apply from 2009 down from 30 percent to 28 percent, and will be 25 percent in 2010. This was done because Indonesia wants to keep pace with the investment climate competitiveness compared with neighboring countries is much lighter tax rates, especially income tax rates in Singapore which started this year decreased to 18 percent.

"The purpose of the amendment of Income Tax Act and VAT (Value Added Tax) is to improve competitiveness with nearby countries. Although not go beyond, but income tax rates that have been defined by the Parliament began to approach Singapore," said Director General of Taxes, Nasution Nasution in a press conference in Jakarta, Monday (21 / 7).

According to Nasution, Malaysia was still using the mechanism of progressive income tax rates between 20-27 percent for taxpayers body. On that basis, Indonesia is much more interesting than Indonesia viewed from a comparison of his income tax rates.

"The trend in the world are showing that the tax rate was kept down. This is caused by globalization and the advance of information technology. Thus, any tax rate changes in a country, people in other countries will know right away.

Tax Revenue trimmed by Corruption

Tax Revenue trimmed by Corruption
Tax revenue has been trimmed by corrupt behavior that have been made in the business environment and the parties that receive the funds that corrupt. This is emphasized because the result of the flow of funds used to bribe the other hand, the funds used to pay taxes from businesses to be more less.

Director General of Taxes Darmin Nasution revealed that when he spoke in the Campaign Sunset Policy in Jakarta, Friday (25 / 7). Sunset Policy prime campaign was delivered in front of dozens of large employers that Indonesia is the largest active taxpayers in this country.

According to Nasution, the gap between the potential tax revenue to the realization of tax revenues paid by the taxpayer is still very high. This was allegedly because the practice of bribing bribery or corruption, nepotism, and collusion is rampant in business circles. As a result, funds for taxes paid much less than they should.

"I do not want to say that funds should be paid taxes, but not, saved by the business community. In fact, the practice of KKN (collusion, corruption, nepotism dam) is sucking funds that should have paid taxes," Nasution said.

Tax slap at End of Year

2009-12-18T23:58:00.001+07:00

Tax slap at End of Year
Three Bakrie firms suspected of tax payment fake Rp 2.1 trillion. If true, this is the largest in Indonesia.

YEAR 2007 is a year full of surprises for PT Bumi Resources Tbk. Trends in energy turnover from oil to coal to make a request black stone in the world jumped. Bakrie family-owned company that was part ketiban luck with new record sales of the extracted coal from East Kalimantan.

Earth could sell 55 million tons of coal with the highest price they ever get U.S. $ 44 (USD 440 thousand) per ton. On the other hand, after replacing the three contractors with their own property or sell a subsidiary, operating costs could be trimmed. As a result, Earth was a profit of U.S. $ 754 million or USD 7.54 trillion, up 42 percent from the previous year.

The euphoria that-the commissioners and directors boasted a new record in the financial statements, apparently obtained no elegant way. Council tax accountants menengarai engineer the Earth's 2007 tax payment of Rp 376 billion. "We're investigating," said Director General of Taxes Mochamad Tjiptardjo last weekend.

This case can reheat relationship Finance Minister Sri Mulyani Indrawati with Bakrie, the owner of this business group. To the Wall Street Journal, last week, Sri Mulyani said that the Aburizal was behind the political commotion Century case because do not like him. It is not possible disclosure of tax cases is accused as part of that feud.

However, Tjiptardjo said, this case actually a long terendap. The tax investigators have been examining allegations that the engineering of June 30, after finding evidence of more serious engineering on the other Bakrie companies, namely PT Kaltim Prima Coal, in 2009. Kaltim Prima allegedly fake tax payments cost the country 1.5 trillion. Later there were also allegations of engineering in PT Arutmin Indonesia U.S. $ 39 million.

Total general, companies in the coal is suspected embezzling Bakrie tax to Rp 2.1 trillion. If proven, this new record of tax evasion that has occurred in Indonesia. The previous record held by Asian Agri Group-owned oil palm company richest man in Indonesia, Sukanto Tanoto, who allegedly embezzled during the 2002-2005 tax amounting to Rp 1.4 trillion.

Money that could be used to build houses for 20 thousand families in Sidoarjo, East Java, which had silted up, estimated darkened by transfer pricing. This financial engineering techniques common to large companies that have a production line from upstream to downstream to avoid paying taxes too much.

One investigator told, allegedly engineered the tax terendus began in early 2009. Suspicion of tax officials is simple: three companies only pay taxes no more than Rp 2 trillion, but they sell so much coal with a good price at that time. Investigate a investigate, investigators said, the price of coal is reported in the tax notice is only half of the actual selling price.

How to make other consumers who like to buy coal at half the price. "It's as if because the transaction did not happen," said the senior tax investigators. "In fact, coal was sold directly to other purchasers at a price twice." Automatic price reduction cut transaction costs are low impact on the tax to be paid.

Officials in a compact unit of Bakrie declined to comment when asked for confirmation of the serious charges at the end of this year. "That's not my business, the President asked the Director," said Eddie J. Sobari, Director of Earth Resources, Kaltim Prima Coal, and Arutmin.

Ari S. Hudaya, who became president of three companies, said he would make an official release in response to allegations that the tax engineering. "Just wait, yes," he said. "Thank you for your attention."

Indeed they are not without an effort to prevent these cases reported rolling through crowded. Attorneys Bakrie Group had twice sent a letter to the Minister of Finance Sri Mulyani to stop the investigation. The request was rejected because the process has entered the investigation stage. "When examined why did not plead guilty and pay for it," said Tjiptardjo. "If it's an investigation like this, we can not back out."

According to Tjiptardjo, the tax actually being given the opportunity of three companies that take advantage of the sunset in 2008 a policy on the elimination of administrative sanction tax interest payments and improve the tax report. "But they insisted was not guilty," said one other investigator.

That is why, on 20 April 2009 to prevent tax officials Robertus Bismarck, a hierarchy of PT Kaltim Prima Coal, foreign travel after the set as a suspect. Robertus is the accountant who signed the annual tax notice. Tjiptardjo he allegedly called the charge engineering techniques that. Prevention remain in place despite the payment of some tax money.

Apparently, after checking up to the stage of investigation, Kaltim Prima also melted and willing to pay Rp 828 billion, followed Arutmin the deposit of U.S. $ 27.5 million. Late. According to Tjiptardjo, settlement of tax evasion does not prevent or remove a criminal offense. Even Law Taxation General Provisions set the fines due to fake tax returns for four times and one-time tax principal.

Payment of 500 percent of the amount of tax that darkened as a condition of the Minister of Finance or the Attorney General issued a warrant termination of the investigation. Of course if they want to pull out due to more importance than money back countries imprison people. Although the money could be returned, the prison go on.

Tjiptardjo also denied that the opening of a tax evasion case Bakrie companies was because of disagreement between the Minister of Finance Sri Mulyani and Aburizal Bakrie. "There's no political element, we have examined tax evasion was long before the fuss now," he said.

Apart from the chaotic two officials, the alleged tax evasion by the three Bakrie companies that, if later proved, has a new record in the history of taxation in Indonesia. "Our evidence is very strong," said Tjiptardjo.

Tax Amnesty Application to Consider

2009-11-10T17:46:00.003+07:00

Tax Amnesty Application to Consider
Macro Bappenas Planning Director Bambang Prijambodo added tax amnesty application to be considered with reference to how much the domestic economy's response when the facility was given and the fairness of taxation. Referring to the first consideration, the application of a tax amnesty in order to encourage repatriation of capital into the country become irrelevant. "If hope is to attract capital, the government should fix the real sector of the business climate, rather than applying the tax amnesty. Impact granting tax amnesty to entry of smaller capital inflow to the economy, even greater if we focus on developing the real sector," he said, in Jakarta, Friday (23/10/2009).

Viewed from the side of tax fairness, clarity, fairness requires the state to all the people. That is, if the government should make exception to the tax obligation, it was done with a rational basis and is urgent to encourage economic activity.

"There is the justice that should be reflected in the attitude of the State. So this should be considered correct by the State (if the tax amnesty should be applied)," he explained.

Members of the House Commission XI Andi Rahmat explained, the concept of amnesty tax policy that will be encouraged Parliament in 2009/2014 Prolegnas would be restricted to criminal sanctions taxation. "So there is no connection with another crime," he said.

Andi said, the process for the draft Bill on Tax Amnesty continues to this day. Composition is done by reference to current conditions. He added that if it was agreed then this bill would be a legal umbrella that stands alone.

Local govts allowed to tax fuels by 2011 under new law

2009-10-23T09:27:00.001+07:00

Local govts allowed to tax fuels by 2011 under new law
Three years from now, fuel prices may vary at regional level due to the application of local fuel taxes, but the head of state may "intervene" to ensure that resulting variations in prices will not cause undue problems.
The new law on regional tax and retribution states that there will be a regional tax on fuels, capped at 10 percent. Under the law, the government has been given a three-year period to determine the mechanisms to be used and to make preparations for the regions to impose such a tax.
"Fuel tax will be imposed on buyers ... If there are problems the president may intervene," Budi Sitepu, Finance Ministry's director of regional tax and retribution, said in a discussion Friday evening.

Budi was referring to the possibility that there could be massive price differences in fuels between one region and another that this might trigger smuggling when the differential taxes became effective.
For example, if Jakarta imposes a 5 percent fuel tax on a liter of Premium gasoline, priced at Rp 4,500 (about 48 US cents), then the price will reach Rp 4,725; while if nearby Bekasi imposes a 10 percent tax, then the price will reach 4,950.The price difference may cause Jakartans to buy fuels in Bekasi.Therefore, he said, the President had the authority within these three years to ensure regions would be ready to implement the tax without causing any problems.
"But after three years it will be the regional authority *to determine prices*. We thought there would not be any problem, but in the end to anticipate *any problems that may arise* there is this clause," said Budi.
The fuel tax will be imposed on both subsidized and nonsubsidized fuels.
At present, the government subsidizes Premium gasoline, diesel and kerosene. Outside of these distribution channels, several oil companies, including state oil and gas PT Pertamina, also sell nonsubsidized, high quality fuelsThe new law on regional tax and retribution provides regions with greater authority to determine levies and extra discretion to determine the rate of such levies, but taking into account the benefits to their respective areas.Finance Minister Sri Mulyani Indrawati said regions should take into consideration local economic conditions and the state of their industries when determining tax rates, to avoid negative impacts on the national economy.It is expected most of the new taxes and retributions will already be effective by 2011.
With the new law, regional revenues will account for 24 percent of regional budgets, up from 19 percent this year, said Budi.Lawmaker Nursanita Nasution, who helped deliberate upon the law, said the government could punish regions imposing bad taxes and retributions that would be detrimental to the economy.
"This provides some certainty," she said.The law also states that owners of motor vehicles must pay between 1 and 2 percent private vehicle tax. If the owner has another car, the tax will be between 2 and 10 percent for the second car.Owners of single two-wheeled and three-wheeled vehicles will only have to pay between 1 and 2 percent tax.The law was endorsed by the House of Representatives in August.

"State Enterprises Minister will hold a meeting with the Directorate General of Taxes on October 20, 2009."
Ministry of State Owned Enterprises (SOEs) noted that the tax advantages experienced by the government-owned enterprises reached 15.226 trillion worth Rp. Although admittedly, there are state tax issues worth Rp 5.403 trillion.These findings with the findings bertolakbelakang Directorate General (DG) of Taxes which issued a report state tax arrears worth Rp 19 trillion, which later revised to $ 7 trillion.

"State Enterprises Minister will hold meetings with the Directorate General of Taxation on 20 October to synchronize the data," said Secretary Ministry of SOEs Said Didu in his office, Jalan Medan Merdeka Selatan, Jakarta, Friday night, October 16, 2009.

Ministry records show state tax overpayment comes from the surplus does not include restitution payments from PT Pertamina worth Rp 15.2 trillion and PT Perusahaan Listrik Negara (PLN) Batam worth Rp 26 billion.

Pertamina overpayment findings largely derived from the excess taxes pengasilan (PPh) 25/29 article since 2003-2008. The findings were known from the results of audits of financial statements that have been completed the company.

"Previously Pertamina does not have balance sheets so they continue to pay taxes," he said.

Meanwhile, the excess tax payments PLN Batam is known from the results of the audit Audit Agency (BPK) which found excess value added tax payment of Rp 26 billion.

With these advantages, says Said, the government actually still have a debt to the state amounting to Rp 9.8 trillion. This figure comes from the reduction of excess tax payments amounting to Rp 15.226 trillion, against a delinquent state worth Rp 5.40 trillion.

Worry Automotive Industry

Progressive Tax Review and PPnBM

The imposition of a progressive tax and luxury sales tax should not make the automotive industry was worried. The government will set in government regulations fairly. Automotive industry asked to see the positive aspects of both these taxes.

Deputy Coordinating Minister for Economic Affairs Trade and Industry revealed Eddy Putra Irrawaddy it in Jakarta, late last week.

He asked for feedback on the automotive industry blow up the implementation plan of progressive taxation and luxury sales tax (PPnBM). It assessed the policy will hit the automotive industry.

Eddy asked for the automotive industry to see the positive aspects of both these taxes. Through a progressive tax, car sales spread to a number of areas for more.

"The owner of the vehicle will think more mature again if you want to have two cars or more in number. Instead of progressive taxable, (owner) sold the car better, "he said.

According to Eddy, it will manage the implementation of government regulations for this Act with the Ministry of Finance and the Ministry of Industry.

Eddy said, the government interest in raising PPnBM not to increase state revenues.

However, the results obtained from the tax from the owners of luxury cars were put into the state treasury, and then used to develop infrastructure, particularly roads.

Eddy was sure that the citizens of Indonesia who have two or more cars is not much. "At less than 0.5 percent of it," he added.

Not able to arrange

Meanwhile, Vice Chairman of the Chamber of Commerce and Industry Indonesia Industry Sector, Research, and Technology Rahmat Gobel said that progressive tax be increased or PPnBM impressed by the government for not able to arrange motor vehicle.

Handling congestion in Indonesia, particularly in Jakarta and surrounding areas, now has led to a reduction of vehicles on the road. It's not improvement of traffic management.

Based on data collected Motor Vehicle Industry Association of Indonesia (Gaikindo) shows, each year Japan was able to sell the car as much as 4-5 million units.

As for Germany to sell 5 million units per year, the U.S. 15 million units per year, and China's 8 million units per year.

However, the flow of vehicles in major cities in the country continue to run normally and economic activity is not disrupted.

Meanwhile, in Indonesia, the average new car sales reached 500,000 units per year, but the speed of vehicles at rush hour on average only 20-30 kilometers per hour.

Even when the rain practical in Jakarta traffic paralyzed. Many factors, for example, driver behavior is not discipline, public transport is creating a new terminal in a number of business centers, and the proliferation of street vendors who mengokupasi sidewalk.

Rahmat said, "Various factors that give the picture, adding the volume of vehicles by imposing progressive taxes should be considered more mature, more to the national automotive industry is not a great shock. Review needs to be done considering the automotive industry is one of the greatest contributions as a spur industrial growth. "

He lamented, if government policies in the taxation sector inhibits the automotive market. Automotive sector in the last 10 years has grown a tremendous market.

In mathematical calculations, the volume of automotive sales four or more wheels to increase 10-fold. In 1998, the automotive market experienced tremendous downfall. However, years of automotive sales in 2008 could reach 607,805 units. Automotive sales growth exceeded the total growth in manufacturing industries of 4.7 percent.
