JAKARTA: Indonesia is considering the possibility of a new tax amnesty programme, a senior lawmaker said on Tuesday, which would be the country's third in the past decade despite criticism that repeatedly offering the relief could lead to more tax avoidance.
Mukhamad Misbakhun, head of the parliamentary commission overseeing finance affairs, said there were no details on the plan so far and lawmakers would begin discussions with the government.
