The Issue

Living in Indonesia, it's become apparent that too many people are caught up in minor issues instead of focusing on what's truly important – reducing library taxes. As a concerned citizen, I have experienced firsthand how these taxes impact not just me, but countless others who value access to knowledge and education.

Libraries are vital institutions that serve our communities by providing free access to information, literature, and lifelong learning opportunities. They act as safe havens for students, researchers, and anyone with a thirst for knowledge. However, the burden of high taxes on these essential services means limited resources and fewer opportunities for everyone.

According to recent reports, library funding in Indonesia is struggling to keep up with the needs of a growing population. High taxation rates have forced some libraries to cut operating hours, reduce staff, and even limit the number of books and services available. This issue affects students who rely on libraries for study materials, job seekers needing internet access, and families who can't afford alternative learning resources.

Lowering library taxes is a realistic and impactful way to ensure that libraries remain accessible and well-funded. By easing this financial burden, we can allocate more resources towards improving facilities, expanding book collections, and offering community programs that foster education and creativity.

Let's not lose sight of the bigger picture. By signing this petition, you advocate for a future where libraries are prioritized as pillars of our society, not sidelined by excessive taxation. Together, we can make a difference and ensure that knowledge remains within reach for all Indonesians. Please sign and share this petition to call for the reduction of library taxes in Indonesia now!
