Asked for additional budget for the development of fighter aircraft, finance minister sri mulyani complained minister of defence

Finance Minister Sri Mulyani and Head of National Development Planning Agency (Bappenas) Bambang Brodjonegoro attended a meeting with Commission I of the House of Representatives (DPR).
They discussed the additional budget of the Ministry of Defense (Kemenhan) in RAPBN 2018.

Kemenhan specifically requested an additional Rp 1.8 trillion for multi-year payments in order to develop KF-X / IF-X fighter planes with South Korea. The problem was that Kemenhan did not budget funds in order to pay the plane's plural year obligations in APBN 2016 and 2017.

Sri Mulyani show her complain to the Ministry of Defense because of this problem. "This will be a problem for us in terms of money and the process," said Sri Mulyani during a meeting at the Parliament Building, Jakarta, Thursday (19/10). The meeting was also attended by the Commander of Indonesian National Army (TNI), General Gatot Nurmantyo, and Secretary General of the Ministry of Defense, Admiral Madya Widodo.

Actually, Kemenhan has budgeted the payment of obligations this year has been done since 2012. But in the last two years, is no longer budgeted. On the other hand the Ministry of Finance has not received the document of the multi-year payment agreement.

Previously, the budget ceiling of the TNI in the draft State Budget (RAPBN) 2018 increased from Rp 105.7 trillion. Currently Kemenhan proposed additional budget next year to Rp 107.5 trillion

Sri Mulyani explained that she hoped that Kemenhan could be disciplined in terms of budgeting and routinely convey his payment obligations for his plural year to the MoF, "So in checking the financial note, we can remind Kemenhan," Sri said.

While Bambang Brodjonegoro is reluctant to speculate too far why the plane's years obligations are not included in the two national budgets. He speculates that this maybe because the budget is included in the State Treasurer (BUN) and is considered to be government to government (G to G) financing so that it escapes regular funding.

"So maybe the Kemenhan forgot," said Bambang.

The meeting between House of Representatives me with Sri Mulyani, Bambang Brodjonegoro has not been completed until night. Commission I has not approved the additional budget. Chairman of Commission I Abdul Kharis Almasyhari and Sri Mulyani agreed that the discourse of Rp 1.8 trillion needs to be discussed separately between Kemenhan and Commission l

Administrative glitch. The MoF is doing such a good job. TNI menjaga geografi negara kita, Kemenkeu menjaga keuangan negara kita.
 
for a state department, an organization with thousands personnel,
"forgot to include a budget" is inexcusable, IMHO
there must be a systemic issue, not just a glitch

For multiyears contract and strategic project, its unreasonable to forgot including it in state budget. Fatal.
 
Without ministry of finance and their discipline policy, there is no way our State can be as strong as today.
 
IIRC in 2015 the government said that they wanted to stop kfx program. Is that the reason they didn't include the budget for the last 2 years?
