REPUBLIKA.CO.ID, JAKARTA -- A law maker said the tax amnesty policy is expected to contribute Rp100 trillion to the state tax revenue in 2016.

The figure is larger than the target set by the Taxation Directorate General, a member of the Commission XI of the Parliament Muhamad Misbakhun said.

The Taxation Directorate General said its target for tax revenues was Rp1,546.7 trillion in 2016 including Rp60 trillion from the tax amnesty scheme and Rp10 trillion in revaluation.

"We hope tax revenue as a result of the tax amnesty policy is more than Rp100 trillion," Misbakhun said here on Wednesday night.
