Banners torn in Bogor

BOGOR (JP): Bogor Regional Revenue Agency chief M. Djumala said on Tuesday that his office had torn down at least 55 commercial banners across the city as they had violated city tax regulations.

"Most of the banners had expired. Others did not pay the taxes," Djumala said.

He said his office had notified the parties responsible for installing the banners along the city's main thoroughfares and other strategic routes about a week ago.

"We'll run a routine inspection on the advertisement boards. If they haven't paid the levies, we'll tear them down," he said. (21/edt)
