East Luwu Regent, South Sulawesi, Irwan Bachri Syam emphasized that the government he leads will not increase land and building taxes (PBB) such as those that are busy in various regions.
Irwan Bachri said the fiscal policy in East Luwu must continue to side with the community, without adding to the burden of their lives.
"In East Luwu there is no policy to increase the UN. We don't want to increase the burden on the community, instead our focus is to maintain stability and improve public services," said Irwan, quoted from ANTARA, Sunday, August 17, 2025.
Not only refusing to increase the UN, the East Luwu Regency Government is even more progressive by removing a number of levies on public facilities.
Starting from the retribution of sports facilities, tourist attractions, Sorowako Rusunawa, public parking, to hospitals is now free of charge. Even kiosks in Pujasera Malili are no longer subject to rent.

"Not only does it not increase the UN, we also eliminate a number of levies so that people can more freely take advantage of public facilities. Our principle is clear, what can be free, we will free it as long as it can still be supported by the APBD," explained Irwan.
This policy is a breath of fresh air for the people of East Luwu. When many regions take a path to increase their income from the United Nations, the East Luwu Regency Government actually chooses to optimize the management of the APBD without burdening the people.
This step also affirms the Regent Irwan's commitment to make East Luwu an area that prioritizes the welfare of the community, not just pursuing regional income through levies.
