JAKARTA - The government is yet to discuss a plan to use non-tax state revenues to buy a special military satellite, Communication and Informatics Minister Tifatul Sembiring stated.
"It has not yet been discussed since there is no such regulation in place," he remarked at a working meeting with the House of Representatives (DPR) Commission I in the parliament building here on Monday. He refused to divulge further details about the plan.
The non-tax state revenues of the Communications and Informatics Ministry reached Rp13.59 trillion last year, an increase of 17 percent over the governments set target of Rp11.58 trillion, he claimed. "The Communications and Informatics Ministrys non-tax state revenues reached Rp13.59 trillion, thereby exceeding its set target," he noted.
Earlier, the Jurnalparlemen.com quoted Deputy Chairman of the House Commission I TB Hasanuddin as saying that the government should procure a special military satellite to ward off any espionage.
He suggested that the government should use the non-tax state revenues at the ministry to buy the special military satellite. He argued that the use of non-tax state revenues will be processed in a quicker manner as compared to the use of the state budget fund.
He recommended that the government should buy the satellite, which is priced at Rp5-7 trillion, using the non-tax state revenues of the Defense Ministry, the State Secretariat, and the Communications and Information Ministry. The DPR was ready to supervise the disbursal of non-tax state revenues, he pointed out.
