The Indonesian government is set to test a one-stop event licensing system by the end of July 2023, with trials taking place in Jakarta, Surabaya, Bali, Medan, Bandung, and Banyuwangi. The system aims to reduce the administrative process for event permits and improve the capitalization of events. The system is being developed by a consortium of Perum Peruri, Telkom, and Bank Mandiri and is expected to be used for trials by the end of July 2023. The government's discourse on developing such a system stems from industry players' complaints about the complexity of the permit processing process. The one-door licensing system will allow industry players to upload administrative documents online on one platform, and the payment method will be packaged in a non-cash manner.The capitalization of around 3,000 events is expected to reach IDR 350 trillion. The General Chairperson of the Association of Indonesian Exhibition Companies, Hosea Andreas Runkat, believes that the system is beneficial for promoters because they can manage permits in one place and control and oversee the implementation of events that are not feasible. However, he doubts the system's ability to overcome problems in the field. The government's efforts to provide a one-stop event licensing system should be appreciated, but the supervision of field practices during preparation and the day of the event should be criticized. The government's capacity to run the one-door event licensing system is also being questioned as the gap between the upper and lower classes widens.Link di fonte: https://www.kompas.id/baca/ekonomi/2023/07/12/uji-coba-perizinan-acara-satu-pintu-mulai-akhir-juli-2023 (ICE GIACARTA)
