Indonesian regional governments are implementing various strategies to optimize regional original income (PAD) and improve tax compliance through digitalization and targeted enforcement. In Ciamis, the Regional Revenue Agency (Bapenda) has focused on asset optimization, managing tax receivables to minimize bad debts, and promoting digital transaction literacy via QRIS payments. By late 2026, the agency also initiated special operations targeting vehicles that failed to re-register to increase motor vehicle tax awareness. Other regions have reported ~~similar efforts~~ varying progress toward revenue targets. ~~Padang reported achieving approximately 64.43 percent~~ In Padang, the local government is pursuing a target of ~~its~~ Rp1.04 trillion ~~PAD goal by early~~ for the 2026 amended budget. As of September 7, 2026, ~~while Medan~~ the city realized Rp628.586 billion, representing approximately 64.43 percent of the total target.
