00:00Finance Minister Sri Mulyani Indrawati admitted that he has heard a lot of aspirations from the public,

00:07both from entrepreneurs, the general public, and the DPR,

00:11about the promise of an increase in the added value tax, PPN, to 12%.

00:16In our APBN press conference for the December 2024 edition,

00:21the State Department reiterated the basic needs such as rice, meat, fish, eggs, vegetables,

00:28education services, health, electricity, and drinking water are not affected by PPN, i.e. PPN 0%.

00:36Although the government's PPN for now is 11%,

00:40Sri Mulyani ensures that the goods and services will not be affected by the increase in PPN.

00:47So I repeat again, goods that are not affected by PPN will still be maintained,

01:23and is carefully discussed with the Ministry of Economic Coordination.
