Efforts To achieve Higher and Better PUBLIC INVESTMENT
1. Creating Fiscal Space through◦ Revenues Mobilization Reform◦ Reallocation of Spending
2. Spending Efficiency Reform
3. Quasi-Budget Financing and PPP
TRACK 1 :Creating FISCAL SPACE: REVENUE MOBILIZATION REFORM
◦ A large potential gap on both tax and non tax revenues
◦ Given recent tax competition across countries, most of additional revenues should come from the tax administration reform rather than policy changes
◦ Tax administration reform would take some time to yield the outcomes
10
Large TAX REVENUE POTENTIAL GAP
IMF (2013)1 estimated Indonesia’s tax effort between 0.42-0.47 in 2011
IMF (2013)2 also estimated Indonesia’s total revenue gaps of 5.0% of GDP
IMF (2011, 2014)3 and Sugana-Hidayat (2013)4 estimated VAT gaps between 47-60% of the current revenue

Quasi Budget Financing and PPP◦Quasi Budget Financing through SOE capitalization and asset revaluation◦ Seems to work for toll road projects
◦ But create potential problem over crowding out of private sector
◦ And fiscal risks :
◦ Recapitalization will raise SOE’s borrowing capacity and if not well planned might potentially create additional fiscal risks.

led by a strong growth in gross investment
FROM TECHNOCRATIS TO the REALITIES : Political and IMPLEMENTATION CAPACITY
1. Political Cycles and Reform◦ There are some setbacks over reallocation efforts particularly on subsidy
reform◦ Suspension automatic tariff adjustment in electricity , uspension of fuel price formulae ; Capping over coal price domestic obligation
◦ Suspension of Direct Electricity Subsidy scheme for low income households
◦ Reintroduction of populist policies : food, renegotiation of toll contract etc.
2. Fragmented Decision Making◦ No dominant party for the next 10 year – many compromised policy agendas have to be taken.
◦ Many vested interest at all levels and branches
3. Weak implementation capacity almost at all levels◦ the ineffective implementation following the increase on capital spending in 2015
19
Suggestions for Discussion1. How use effectively political cycle : in reality, any reform(s) can only be implemented during
the first three year max (of 5 year political cycle). Use effectively the remaining years for preparing the reforms. Window of opportunity is typically limited.
2. Good [Program and Project] preparation is always rewarded. Use the political off session to prepare any reform programs and projects
3. Effective Political Communication with the political leaders is equally important.◦ Should not push too hard to implement the reform during the political cycle otherwise we might end up
with set-back on the current reform status.
20
Suggestion for discussion4. Budget is only one element of good public investment management. The implementation capacity is equally important as well as institutional supporting elements like land acquisition program
5. Setting the right incentive for the implementing agencies. Think about to use Result Based Grant or Spending as a contract mechanism between Central Government and local government and or Ministry of Finance and Line ministries
