In the first semester of 2019, based on data collection, the realization has reached more than IDR21 billion
Makassar (ANTARA) - The Regional Original Income (PAD) from the advertisement tax sector in the first semester of 2019 totaled Rp21.3 billion, the Makassar's Regional Revenue Agency has said. "In the first semester of 2019, based on data collection, the realization has reached more than Rp21 billion," the Head of Sub Division of Parking Tax and Advertising of Makassar, South Sulawesi, Adiyanto Said, said Monday.

Averaging as much as 42.7 percent meant they had achieved almost half of the target, he said.

With more thanRp17 billion, the achievement for this year was far better than that in the same period in the previous year which was Rp16.9 billion, Ariyanto said. However, in this semester I-2019, the agency had a surplus of Rp4.4 billion.

"For the comparison of the same period as last year, the current period is much better. We have a surplus of Rp4.4 billion over the previous year," he said.

The target for Makassar's regional income in the advertisement tax sector was Rp50 billion, so his side still had to work hard to meet the target, he said.

"We are optimistic that the target can be achieved since there is still one semester left. Taking the experience of previous years, the end of the year is always busier," he said.
