SBY SAID: TAX AMNESTY IS A FRAGILE ASSUMPTION BUT HE PROPOSED NOT AN IMPRESSIVE CHOICE

SBY SAID: TAX AMNESTY IS A FRAGILE ASSUMPTION BUT HE PROPOSED NOT AN IMPRESSIVE CHOICE

SBY often criticized various programs of government since his era ended last 2014. The lately the sixth president pointed out on the tax amnesty policy as an absolute fragile assumption of jokowi's presidency. 


According to Susilo, it's not effective to increase the revenue by means of tax amnesty. Instead Jokowi and his cabinet should opt to cut of unnecessary budget and allocate to the potential sectors only like infrastructure, real sectors and many others. On the other hand, tax amnesty according to Susilo bambang yudhoyono is only advantegous to the tax evaders rather than raising the national revenue.

Need to know, the house of senate is to complete the regulation of tax amnesty meant to repatriate the potential investors who reeside abroad. By means of tax amnesty, it is expected for the investors to return back to the country and gaining more additional revenue estimatedly Rp 180 trillion. According to minister of finance, bambang brodjonegoro, from overseas target around Rp4000 trillion, 4% from that estimatedly gaining Rp 160 trillion meanwhile from domestic 2% from targeted Rp 1000 will earn Rp 20 trillion of additional revenue. In addition, finansce minister said that without the tax amnesty, government would cut off around 250 trillion rupiahs for national budget. This is much caused by low tax revenue which contributes the majority fund for national budget.  

Tax amnesty still becomes the main target of government for national revenue addition. Taking into consideration that jokowi must push through with it since they need more fund to bolster the massive program like infrastructure in entire regions. 

2 years in presidency jokowi has built rail train trans celebes and trans papua which are the first 
time in history. Besides, jokowi cabinet has build major toll ways of trans java, massive water 
reservoir for irrigation and money others. Though seems only speculative to earn from tax revenue, 
government included it in the list still. 

The ex sixth president, sby blamed that government should seek for other strategy to boost for 
revenue.According the cut off of budget in proportional amunt is feasible provided for unnecessary 
programs. However, the critic basically did not give impressive solution or simply a mere rhetoric. He doesn't propose significant strategy based on 2 consecutive periods of him as president. Meanwhile, the tax amnesty of jokowi is categorized as novel ardous breakthrough. Beside it is advantegous for short term. in long term, this will withdraw back the outside investors thus support more on the investment of the country. This approah of jokowi is considered as the courageous and smart approach. Furthermore, the neighbor country which has been target of indonesian investor to flee like singapore is in stagger upon the tax amnesty to apply in indonesia.
