JAKARTA, Jan. 9 (Xinhua) -- Indonesia aims to increase state income through its initiative, INA Digital, a platform designed to integrate the systems and data of approximately 27,000 applications operated by various ministries and regional administrations.

Chairman of the National Economic Council Luhut Binsar Pandjaitan said on Thursday that the platform is expected to boost state revenues by up to 6.4 percent of the country's gross domestic product (GDP), equivalent to 1,600 trillion Indonesian rupiahs (about 98 billion U.S. dollars).

He emphasized the government's commitment to strengthening the platform, noting that it is part of President Prabowo Subianto's 53 acceleration programs.

"This is not just talk. This will start quickly," he said.

INA Digital, also known as GovTech, represents a technology-driven approach to modernizing the public sector. By synchronizing data from government agencies and citizens on a single platform, INA Digital enhances efficiency and allows real-time access and monitoring.

Launched by former President Joko Widodo in May last year, the platform offers a unified system enabling citizens to access applications from different ministries and government bodies without repeatedly entering their national ID numbers. Enditem
