Ketua Banggar DPR RI yang juga Ketua DPP PDIP, Said Abdullah, menjelaskan awal mula lahirnya keputusan menaikkan PPN dari 11 ke 12 persen.
This article explains the Indonesian Democratic Party of Struggle (PDIP)'s justification for increasing the Value Added Tax (PPN) to 12%.
The main conceptual idea is that PDIP argues the increased PPN revenue is necessary to fund President Prabowo Subianto's social programs, including providing free healthy meals.
Essentially, they are linking the potentially unpopular tax hike to tangible social benefits aimed at improving the lives of Indonesian citizens.
