Germany trains RI on tax, finance

YOGYAKARTA: Two German government-supported organizations, GTZ
(Gesellschaft fur technische Zusammenarbeit) and InWEnt
(Internationale Weiterbildung und Entwicklung gGmbH) are holding
a four-day training seminar on taxes, financial management and
the business climate for 30 provincial administration officials,
starting on Monday.

Team Leader of InWEnt's South East Asia Capacity Building team
Richard Ratka said InWEnt and GTZ planned to hold two training
sessions per year over the next three years.

The program is focusing on the identification of structural
differences between financial management systems and approaches
in both Indonesia and Germany; the consideration of feasible
applications of management policies and practices at provincial
and national levels and the identification of capacity
development in the public sector. -- JP
