JAKARTA: Indonesia has threatened to prosecute US technology giant Google after the two sides failed to reach a settlement over unpaid taxes, reports said. 

Indonesia is pursuing what officials say is US$73bil (RM325.98bil) in taxes owed by Google for advertising revenue from as far back as 2011, when the search giant first established its Indonesian operations.
