The Director General's statement

Bimo stressed that the Directorate General of Taxes (DJP) continues its duty of optimizing state revenue to finance development. "The impact, in my view, is none. Taxes must still chase the target to fund development," he said at the 2026 DJP Media Gathering in Bogor, West Java, on Thursday (12/11/2026).

He said the DJP will keep raising taxpayers' voluntary compliance while ensuring economic activity continues to run well. "We simply keep making our best efforts, serving the public, making sure voluntary (tax) compliance can increase, and also making sure the economy can keep running well," he said.
