        "summary": "Finance Minister Purbaya Yudhi Sadewa has announced an evaluation of the CoreTax system following the discovery of irregularities, including the unauthorised reinstatement of underperforming vendors and the existence of additional application layers that complicate user access. He highlighted that the system's initial design is not fully user-friendly, allowing certain parties to exploit intermediary interfaces for services to large companies, which was previously unknown to the government. The Ministry prioritises stabilising the system for smooth tax reporting before undertaking comprehensive reforms.",
        "content": "<p>Finance Minister Purbaya Yudhi Sadewa stated that his ministry will\nevaluate the CoreTax system. Speaking at the Presidential Palace Complex\nin Jakarta on Friday (27\/3\/2026), Purbaya said the government has\nidentified new issues in the management of the CoreTax system that\nrequire internal improvements. In the evaluation, Purbaya revealed the\npresence of service vendors that had previously been terminated due to\nslow performance but were reinstated without official approval.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIn CoreTax, there are suddenly reports again that it\u2019s spinning\naround, even though it had disappeared before; apparently, there are\nnaughty elements in our midst. There\u2019s a contract with a vendor that we\nhad already stopped because of its slow service, and it\u2019s been sneaked\nback in,\u201d said Purbaya.<\/p>\n<p>He also assessed that the initial design of CoreTax is not fully\nuser-friendly. He explained that the system should directly connect with\nthe public. However, in practice, there are additional application\nlayers that make the process more complex.<\/p>\n<p>Furthermore, Purbaya said he recently learned of certain parties\nexploiting the additional intermediary layers or interfaces to provide\nservices to large companies.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis CoreTax design is a bit odd. It should have been made with a\ndirect interface to the public from the start to make it easy. But it\nturns out it was made somewhat complicated so that in the middle,\nthere\u2019s a self-made interface application. This is being sold to large\ncompanies. I just found out,\u201d he clarified.<\/p>\n<p>Purbaya said the government is currently prioritising the stability\nof CoreTax services to ensure smooth tax reporting processes. After the\nreporting period ends, the Ministry of Finance plans to carry out\ncomprehensive improvements.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe first secure all the CoreTax elements that have obstacles, then\nI\u2019ll clean up this one, the interface space that was deliberately\ncreated,\u201d added Purbaya.<\/p>",
