Jakarta, Aktual.com – tax amnesty program is predicted to be successful and be able to support state revenue from taxes, threatened to fail to achieve its goals.
This happens because the large taxpayer (WP) or among employers still do not trust the government to manage fiscal. So they do not to follow the tax amnesty program.
“The magnitude of the refusal to pay taxes in the country, although there tax amnesty was exis, it shows an impression on the public the bad reputation of the management of fiscal of the Kabinet Kerja,” said economic analyst political, Ichsanuddin Noorsy when contacted, Sunday (11 / 9).
According Ichsan, poor fiscal management is justified by President Joko Widodo. During this time, Jokowi even often mention the tax amnesty program is only targeting rich taxpayer and does not stray into the middle to bottom.
“In fact, when it does not recognize the concept of taxes among the top-down? Taxes were targeting all. This shows the president admitted that the fiscal management has been very chaotic. Bad reputation was made public not interested to participate in tax amnesty, “he stated.
The government have target ransom fund tax amnesty tax of as much as Rp165 trillion, was reached Rp1.000 trillion repatriation targets and targets declaration reached Rp4.000 trillion. But the achievement of these targets is below 5 percent.
Ichsan said bad fiscal management make rich taxpayer becomes a crisis of confidence in the government. Neither the President as the leader of a fiscal manager nor the Finance Minister as a proxy to manage the government’s fiscal.
For that, the government must be creative in finding rich taxpayer in foreign. So the fund the repatriation can be quickly discharged. Especially the government should be able to catch the rich taxpayer who have a private company which has not been registered company (listed) in the capital market as a public company (go public).
“And they (private company) that numerous overseas. Properly should continue to be pursued. So they want to willingness to pay taxes, “he explained.
Only problem is, he said, during the fiscal reputation that was not properly managed because the budget is not healthy, make public remains reluctant to pay taxes voluntarily.
“Although the concept of our tax more familiar with tax obligator that not like in the US for willingness to pay taxes (tax payer), but during the fiscal reputation is poor remains to be hard,” said Ichsan.
to repatriate funds that exist abroad is hampered with investment protection guarantee agreement between countries. Such as the Indonesia-Singapore or Indonesia and the US.
“And the money put on the most widely overseas in Singapore. So despite the tax amnesty, funds will be not automatically returned. Because there have agreement, so that investment there is protected and exposed to double taxation, “he added.
