KPPOD Soroti Sikap Purbaya soal Obligasi DKI, Pemerintah Pusat Dinilai tak Konsisten
KPPOD mengkritik sikap Menteri Keuangan Purbaya yang menolak rencana penerbitan obligasi daerah DKI Jakarta karena dianggap tidak konsisten dengan kebijakan pusat yang mendorong pembiayaan kreatif. Direktur Eksekutif KPPOD, Arman Suparman, menilai obligasi daerah sah secara hukum berdasarkan UU No. 1/2022 tentang HKPD dan bahwa pemerintah pusat seharusnya berperan sebagai fasilitator, bukan penghambat. KPPOD mendorong pemerintah pusat menyusun parameter penilaian yang jelas dan tidak menolak rencana DKI hanya karena alasan kapasitas fiskal yang besar.
