According to him, this\ntechnology is more advanced than a barcode system. With this machine, he\nassures that excise stamps cannot be counterfeited.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSo, we are about to implement a new technology called Track and\nTrace from a company in cooperation with Peruri. With it, the excise\nstamps cannot be counterfeited; the stamps will be different, with smart\ndigital features. Not a barcode, but a special scan, not a barcode, but\nsomething special and more advanced than a barcode,\u201d said Purbaya at the\nMinistry of Finance office on Wednesday (28\/8\/2026).<\/p>\n<p>According to Purbaya, the company partnered with Peruri is a foreign\ncompany. However, he was not yet able to disclose the company\u2019s\nname.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cFrom abroad. But I cannot reveal the company yet,\u201d Purbaya said.<\/p>\n<p>Purbaya was also unable to disclose the investment value. However, he\nexplained that this partner company will invest in Indonesia and the\ngovernment will pay based on a certain percentage.<\/p>\n<p>According to Purbaya, the system will be trialled over the next five\nyears; if it does not have an impact on revenue, he will discontinue the\nexcise stamps.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe will try it for the next five years. If there is no additional\nincome, I will stop it. Before I am replaced, I will stop it,\u201d he\nsaid.<\/p>\n<p>Regarding the Track and Trace machines, Purbaya said the government\nwill install dozens of them in the initial phase.<\/p>\n<p>The machines, Purbaya said, must be custom-made to order, which takes\ntime. The equipment is currently being tested in Central Java and will\nbe expanded in the future.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThere is one machine in Central Java. It will be expanded in the\nnear future. Because within six months, if I am not mistaken, we will\nhave 100 machines. Within nine months, around 240 machines,\u201d he\nsaid.<\/p>",
