JAKARTA - Minister of Finance (Menkeu) Sri Mulyani admitted that she received direct direction from President Joko Widodo (Jokowi) regarding the development of digital systems in order to prevent potential corruption in state revenues.
This was conveyed by the Minister of Finance in a dialogue initiated by the Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) today.
"In accordance with the President's instructions that opportunities and opportunities for corruption to occur in transactions that can reduce state revenues must be eliminated, one of which is through the use of information technology," he said through a virtual channel on Wednesday, August 3.
According to Sri Mulyani, the development of a digital system is considered to be able to narrow or reduce the possibility of deviant business practices, such as corruption or compromise of integrity.
"We at the Ministry of Finance also continue to carry out digital transformation. At the Directorate General of Taxes, for example, there is something called Core Tax so that it is easy for taxpayers to pay their taxes. This also helps us to conduct data analysis to improve tax payment compliance,” he said.
He added that the ranks of the National Fund for Rakca have also developed a system that includes export and import data with information on business actors' tax obligations.
“In several other directorates general, we have developed the Krisna and Sakti digital system, namely the Regional Development Information System (SIPD) with the Regional Financial Information System (SIKD). Once again, this system is electronic based so that the budgeting cycle can be carried out comprehensively and consistently and to avoid waste or compromise on integrity,” he explained.
As for the natural resources sector, the Ministry of Finance has collaborated with relevant agencies through the exchange of data and/or information regarding natural exploration business activities.
Then there is also the Mineral and Coal Information System (Simbara) which was built with relevant ministries and institutions.
"These are all our steps to build an increasingly integrated system based on digital technology while strengthening business processes from upstream to downstream, so that there is data consistency and also assurance of integrity and service," concluded Minister of Finance Sri Mulyani.
