JAKARTA (JP): The city revenue office has said that it is
facing difficulties in collecting land and building taxes from
people because around one to two percent of the total 1.2 million
tax payers have registered under false addresses.

"They are difficult to be traced," said Chief of the City
Revenue Office Fauzi Alvie Yassin to the Republika daily on
Wednesday.

The false addresses occur from many property owners having
sold their land and buildings without giving any information to
the revenue office.

Fauzi said that the city had expected to receive around Rp
208 billion (US$95 million) from land and building taxes (PBB)
but as of this month had only collected Rp 168.9 billion. (mas)
