" Viral Extraordinary School Equipment Stuck Since 2022 due to Taxes, Sri Mulyani Speaks Up"

Dream - The policy of the Ministry of Finance, especially Customs, regarding the shipment of goods from abroad has sparked strong criticism from a number of communities. One of the things that is currently viral is the complaint from the extraordinary school (SLB) in X or Twitter.

In a post from the account @ijalzaid, it tells that the SLB institution where he works received a donation from South Korea in the form of 20 pieces of keyboards for visually impaired students.

"He also uploaded the chronology and evidence that the item is a donation and not a purchase. The item was sent in December 2022 and until now it is still held at the Airport due to tax issues. In response to this matter, Minister of Finance Sri Mulyani held a meeting with several relevant officials. He uploaded the results of the meeting on Saturday night, April 27, 2024 on his Instagram account @smindrawati."

Goods were sent in December 2022 and are still held at the airport due to tax issues. In response to this matter, Finance Minister Sri Mulyani held a meeting with several relevant officials. She uploaded the results of the meeting on Saturday night, April 27, 2024, on her Instagram account @smindrawati. According to her, the Customs and Excise authorities were unaware that it was a gift. This is because the administrative process was not continued by the owner of the goods.

"The shipment of goods for the Special Needs School (SLB) - where the imported goods in the form of 20 pcs keyboards were previously notified as a shipment by PJT on December 18, 2022. However, because the processing was not continued by the person concerned without any explanation, the goods were declared as Unclaimed Goods (BTD). Later (on Twitter / X social media), it was discovered that the shipment was actually a donation, so the Customs will assist with the mechanism of fiscal exemption in the name of the related education department," wrote Sri Mulyani on her Instagram."

"Case of Sending Robots Owned by Content Creators"

"In another case that also went viral on Twitter, making BeaCukai a trending topic, Megatron was sent from abroad for content creator Medy Renaldy."

Kasus Pengiriman Robot Milik Konten Kreator

According to Medy through his account @medyrenaldy_ on X or Twitter, he had the honor of being the representative content creator from Indonesia who will unbox Transformers products, but the item was held up at the airport for a long time and did not arrive in his hands. After complaining and going viral, the item finally arrived in Medy's hands. Unfortunately, the box was already damaged and he showed its condition on his Twitter account.

According to Sri Mulyani, the viral case of robot shipment occurred due to price differences. This caused the officers to take longer time for verification process. "It was found that the price informed by the courier service company (PJT) was lower than the actual price (under invoicing). Therefore, the customs officers corrected it for the calculation of import duties and taxes. However, this issue has been resolved because the import duties and taxes have been paid, so the goods have been received by the recipient," said Sri.
