        "summary": "Finance Minister Purbaya Yudhi Sadewa has disclosed that technical glitches in Indonesia's Coretax system stem from rogue subordinates secretly re-engaging banned vendors known for poor service, alongside a deliberately convoluted design that allows profiteering through intermediary interfaces. He plans to secure the system and eliminate these issues over the next year but cannot overhaul it immediately due to ongoing operations, while the SPT reporting deadline has been extended to end-April amid low compliance rates. This revelation highlights ongoing challenges in modernising Indonesia's tax administration, potentially undermining public trust and revenue collection efforts.",
        "content": "<p>Finance Minister Purbaya Yudhi Sadewa has stated that there are\nmischievous parties behind the frequent technical issues plaguing the\nCoretax system. Purbaya mentioned that some of his subordinates dared to\nuse a prohibited vendor to re-engage with the Coretax system.<\/p>\n<p>Previously, Purbaya claimed that the Coretax system was secure with\nno technical problems. However, he recently discovered that Coretax is\nagain experiencing disruptions in the form of endless processing\nloops.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSuddenly, there were reports again that the Coretax was spinning in\ncircles, even though it had disappeared before. It turns out that in our\norganisation, there are naughty elements; someone contracted with a\nvendor that we had already stopped because of its slow service, and they\nsneaked it back in,\u201d said Purbaya, quoted from detikFinance on Friday\n(27\/3\/2026).<\/p>\n<p>Purbaya noted that to date, none of his subordinates have admitted to\nthe deed.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cNow they won\u2019t admit who brought it back in; I\u2019ll investigate again\nwho reintroduced that vendor, and we will take action,\u201d Purbaya asserted\nfirmly.<\/p>\n<p>He then highlighted the odd design of Coretax. The former LPS\nchairman assessed that certain parties had made the Coretax design\nnon-ideal to profit from the resulting problems.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe Coretax design is a bit strange. It should have been directly\ninterfaced with the public from the start to make it easy. But it turned\nout to be complicated, with an intermediary interface application in the\nmiddle. This is being sold to large companies; I only just found out,\u201d\nPurbaya explained.<\/p>\n<p>However, he emphasised that a comprehensive overhaul cannot be done\nin the near term because the system is still operational. In the\nmeantime, Purbaya has directed his team to focus on securing the system\nand removing existing obstacles, before further improvements are made\nover the next year or so.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019ll sort it out. But not now, because it\u2019s already running; over\nthe next year, we\u2019ll fix it. We\u2019ll secure all of Coretax first,\neliminate the bottlenecks, and then I\u2019ll clean up that deliberately\ncreated interface space,\u201d Purbaya added.<\/p>\n<p>On another note, Purbaya mentioned that the submission of\nNotification Letters (SPT) will still be extended until the end of\nApril, as the number of taxpayers reporting has not yet reached the\ntarget.<\/p>",
