The Directorate General of Taxes (DJP) of East Java II held a strategic forum known as Forum Silaturahmi to enhance collaboration with various interest holders, followed by a dialogue on Tax Day 2026. This joint initiative aims to foster stronger relationships between the tax authority and the public, promoting transparency and mutual understanding in tax matters. Participants included representatives from local governments, business associations, and community leaders, who discussed upcoming tax regulations, compliance strategies, and support mechanisms for small and medium enterprises. Emphasis was placed on aligning fiscal policies with the socioeconomic development goals of the region, ensuring that tax collection processes do not hinder growth while maintaining revenue stability. The event underscored DJP’s commitment to educating taxpayers about their obligations and incentives, encouraging voluntary compliance through clear communication and assistance. By integrating stakeholder feedback into policy formulation, the Directorate seeks to create a more responsive and effective tax system that supports sustainable economic progress. This proactive approach highlights the importance of public engagement in shaping tax policies that are fair, efficient, and conducive to national development, ultimately contributing to Indonesia’s broader fiscal resilience and social welfare objectives.
