Tax Incentive Policy for Geothermal Development: A Comparative Analysis in ASEAN

Penulis

Mohammad Zainul Abidin, Haula Rosdiana, Roy Valiant Salomo

Abstrak

This paper examines tax incentive policies in geothermal industries in ASEAN to better understand the development of geothermal industry investment in the ASEAN Member States (AMS) using a qualitative method. The results indicate that tax incentive policies have supported the investment climate and the development of geothermal industries in the AMS. Geothermal investments and production capacities in AMS have increased significantly. AMS that provide geothermal tax incentives include Indonesia, Lao PDR, the Philippines, Thailand and Vietnam. The performance of geothermal tax incentive policies is reflected in the level of utilization of geothermal potential, which is higher in states that provide greater tax incentives. The results also indicate that geothermal power plants in AMS use dry steam, flash and binary cycle technologies with flash plants being the most common. Results suggest that the future development of geothermal energy in AMS will be related to the tax incentive policy and investment climate in those states. Furthermore, the granting of various types of tax incentives should be focused on the initial investment in geothermal development.

Abstrak

This research examined the stagnant and even declining condition of the agropolitan program was implemented in Indonesia since 2002. Its progress was obstructed due to the national leadership restructuration. Worse of all, there is no Ministry to coordinate the implementation of this program, and minimal support from fiscal policies. The results of this research revealed how the fiscal policy implemented for the acceleration of agropolitan development has not been formulated in a comprehensive, integrative, and holistic manner yet. The current funding mechanism consists of different fiscal policies in each Regency/ City. This includes the different sources of funding, various agencies, and support from the community depending on the area. These differences also affect the success of the implementation of the agropolitan program in each area. In order to allow fiscal policy to accelerate the development of agropolitan areas, the Agropolitan Program Working Group must be more effective in coordinating the funding for the agropolitan program. The National Development Planning Agency must act as a coordinator so the agropolitan program will not overlap with other policies, or even become unnoticed. The the Master Plan for the Acceleration and Expansion of Economic Development (MPAEED) program should be integrated with agropolitan program due to their many similarities. By integrating these two programs, the objective of opening more employment opportunities, increasing the people’s profit thus improving their welfare, and improving agricultural sustainability, can be reached. Also, the coordination and integration of these programs will result in a more effective and efficient funding system.

The government of Indonesia also fully realizes that the rapid development of the economic activities and should respond it by publishing various proper regulations and initiatives. However, some of the regulations are still insufficient to respond to the existing challenges.

Organization changing on the context of bureaucracy reform also still on the progress, similarly on the development of human resources capacity and the use of technology to optimize tax collection effort.

Abstrak

Purpose

The purpose of this paper is to reconstruct the accountability of the cash waqf institution in Indonesia, including the logic which may refer to the accountability objective.

Design/methodology/approach

The paper employs the qualitative method with a constructivist paradigm. Four different characteristics of cash waqf institutions in Indonesia serve as the object of this research with other related respondents, such as the government and Islamic banks. These multiple case studies may represent the characteristics of cash waqf institutions.

Findings

The result shows that the cash waqf institution in Indonesia has unique and different logical characteristics, which is neither unitary nor pluralist.

Originality/value

This may be the first research which discusses the accountability-based logic for cash waqf institutions in Indonesia. These institutions apply Islamic teaching (Shariah) and must generate big income for social activities. Conditions in other countries may be similar since as waqf institutions have common concepts in general.
