Jakarta, InfoPublik - House of Representatives Speaker Ade Komarudin said state revenues from taxes through a tax amnesty is not maximized yet.

He considered the dissemination of tax amnesty by Directorate General of Tax has not covered all layers of society so that tax revenue remains low.

"I am concerned with the DG of Tax’s performance regarding tax amnesty, particularly in terms of dissemination. I find that the dissemination is lack of impact, less intense and less thorough to all groupos of business. The dissemination is not so effective in enhancing taxpayer’s awareness," said Ade Komarudin at the House of Representatives, Jakarta, Tuesday (23/8).

Furthermore, he asked the Directorate General of Tax to take all efforts to continue urging all taxpayers to use tax amnesty opportunity, given the fact that the Tax Amnesty Law is only valid for one year until to March 2017.

"I ask the Directorate General of Tax to work harder. The tax amnesty opportunity is only until March of next year. Please wisely use this opportunity to avoid the 200 per cent fine for failing to use this opportunity," said the Golkar Party politician. (Translator: Wilda Stiana)
