Debt of South Sulawesi Province
The Audit Board of Indonesia (BPK) urges the Government of South Sulawesi Province (Pemprov Sulsel) to immediately pay the Revenue Sharing Fund (DBH) debt to the regencies/municipalities.
This demand was directly conveyed by the Director General of the Third Audit Inspection Agency (Dirjen PKN III) of BPK RI, Dede Sukarjo, during the Full Session Meeting for Submission of the Audit Result Report (LHP) on the Regional Government Financial Report (LKPD) for the 2024 Fiscal Year.
The meeting was held at the DPRD Sulsel Building, Jl. Urip Sumoharjo Makassar, Tuesday (28/5/2025) afternoon.
Attended by the Deputy Governor of South Sulawesi, Fatmawati Rusdi, representing Governor Andi Sudirman.
Attending were Sekda Jufri Rahman and the heads of OPD agencies under the South Sulawesi Provincial Government.
Dede Sukarjo initially expressed appreciation for the achievement of Unqualified Opinion (WTP) obtained by the South Sulawesi Provincial Government.
WTP is for the Regional Government Financial Report (LKPD) of the Fiscal Year 2024.
She mentioned that this WTP opinion is given based on the results of the examination carried out in accordance with the State Financial Audit Standards (SPKN).
This includes two important aspects, namely financial reports and compliance with the internal control system and applicable regulations.
After expressing this appreciation, Dede emphasized the existence of serious notes that need to be addressed immediately.
One of the issues is the debt of the South Sulawesi Provincial Government to the regency/municipal governments in the form of Revenue Sharing Funds (DBH) that remain unresolved.
"Emphasizing one aspect of the 2024 financial report of the South Sulawesi Provincial Government, we emphasize on expenditure and transfer debts, among others, the tax sharing fund (DBH) debt to the regency/municipal governments," stated Dede.
I assess that the DBH is the right of the regency/city government, sourced from the regional tax revenue already received by the Provincial Government of South Sulawesi.
Moreover, the delay in paying the DBH debt has disrupted the continuity of various community service activities in the region that should be funded by this fund.
"Conditions have caused the regency/municipal government to be unable to implement or pay for community service activities funded by the tax DPH," said Dede.
It is considered to have a direct impact on public services.
Dede also highlighted the imbalance between the position of cash and receivables of the South Sulawesi Provincial Government and the short-term obligations that need to be resolved immediately.
"Comparison between cash availability and receivables with short-term liabilities and transfers shows that the South Sulawesi Provincial Government has not yet been able to optimally fulfill its short-term obligations," said Dede.
Although in this opportunity the BPK still gave an Unqualified Opinion (WTP) on the 2024 Regional Government Financial Report (LKPD) of South Sulawesi, Dede emphasized that this opinion does not mean there are no serious notes.
"These notes must be the focus of improvement for the South Sulawesi Provincial Government to enhance accountability and transparency in managing regional finances," he concluded.
South Sulawesi Provincial Government Allocates Rp350 Million for Procurement While Debts Accumulate
State Financial Observer of Patria Artha University, Bastian Lubis, highlighted the allocation of Rp350 billion budget disbursed by the Provincial Government (Pemprov) of South Sulawesi (Sulsel)
Previously, the South Sulawesi Provincial Government will allocate Rp350 billion for the procurement of e-KTP printing cars, provision of Energy-Saving Solar Lamps (LTSHE), and training for MSMEs.
Bastian Lubis said that the large budget should be postponed if the regional revenue sharing funds (DBH) to regencies/municipalities have not been settled.
"It's actually good, but if the debt hasn't been settled, it should be resolved first," he said when contacted by Tribun Timur on Tuesday (1/7/2025).
She stated, according to the latest data, the South Sulawesi Provincial Government still has obligations of DBH to several regions that have not been paid.
Although the funds have been allocated by each region in the APBD.
“Itu lebih penting untuk dibayarkan dulu ke kabupaten/kota, karena mereka sudah susun APBD dengan asumsi dana itu masuk. Kalau tak dibayarkan, mereka yang keteteran,” ujarnya.
Bastian also touched on the issue of the provincial budget discipline, which is still weak.
She mentioned one of the causes of large regional debts due to many programs being implemented without proper planning.
"It violates Law No. 17 of 2003 on State Finance, Article 34. Activities that are not budgeted for but still forced to be paid have the potential for criminal liability," he said.
In addition, Bastian highlighted the role of the State Audit Institution (BPK), which he considers minimal in preventing potential corruption.
According to him, the BPK should be more active in criticizing and not just providing an unqualified opinion (WTP) with notes.
"WTP should mean there are no more corruption findings. But in reality, many regions are still declared as WTP, even though their regional heads were later sentenced. This is a big question," he said.
Bastian also reminded that the Provincial Government does not have people or territory directly.
Therefore, programs such as SME training and infrastructure procurement should be directed in the form of financial assistance to regencies/municipalities, rather than being implemented directly.
"The one with the people and territory is the regency/city. If the province wants to help MSMEs or install solar lamps, it should help through the region," he said.
Before launching a new program, Bastian said, the South Sulawesi Provincial Government should first settle its old debts, especially the regional revenue sharing funds.
Budget allocation, said Bastian, must be based on the scale of priorities and legal compliance.
"Program can be good, but if the main obligations are not fulfilled, then it's better not to proceed. First, settle the rights of the regencies/cities," he explained.
Meanwhile, Acting Head of the South Sulawesi Regional Financial and Asset Agency, Reza Faisal Saleh stated that the budget allocation supports regional priority programs as well as central government programs.
Among them is the provision of printed e-KTP or electronic ID cards that can be used by the Civil Registration and Population Office (Disdukcapil).
"there is a mobile e-KTP printing car to accelerate administrative services for the community in remote areas," Reza said to Best for you on Tuesday (1/7/2025).
In addition, the budget is also allocated for the provision of Energy-Saving Solar Lights (LTSHE).
There are also direct programs that touch the community through strengthening Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs).
"We facilitate halal certification and training for thousands of MSMEs, as well as support for strengthening the silk industry in South Sulawesi," he continued.
Reza admitted that the budget allocation in the 2025 APBD is indeed directed towards programs that directly reach the community.
Thus, the reallocation of a budget amounting to Rp 1.4 trillion has been carefully calculated.
"Efficiency results will strengthen the performance of provincial government spending that directly touches the needs of the community," he explained.
The budget for officials' food and drinks is cut, as well as the provision of Office Stationery (ATK).
Since digitalization is considered to have helped, the budget has been shifted to strategic programs.
