Seeing the importance of this, the Head of the Regional Office (Kanwil) of the Directorate General of Taxes (DGT) West Jakarta (Jakbar) Suparno distributed 20 books of “Tax Inclusion Educator Guide for High School Level”, one reading book “Ku, Mu, Nya: Tax is Mine, Yours, and His”, as well as sports equipment in the form of five volleyballs and five basketballs to SMA Negeri (SMAN) 4 Surakarta.
According to him, the activity was carried out in order to increase literacy and insight into DGT institutions for students and teachers. On the other hand, this activity also aims to enrich tax data by instilling tax awareness among students from an early age.
“Hopefully the books we share can be utilized and Mr. Nanang as the representative of State Senior High School (SMAN) 4 Surakarta is pleased to receive them,” he said in a written statement,
