1 Spending for Development in Papua Presentation for the Tangguh Independent Advisory Panel (TIAP) World Bank Poverty Reduction and Economic Management, Jakarta Jakarta, April 2009 Social, Economic and Fiscal Trends

2 Spending for Development in Papua: Key Messages Main message Papua’s key challenge is not to generate additional resources but to use the existing resources wisely. Poverty and the economy Papua and West Papua (or Papua Barat) are provinces of extremes, with high poverty, relatively high GDP, the lowest population density and the highest fiscal resources in Indonesia. Since 2002, poverty declined from 46 percent to 37 percent. However, Papua and West Papua remain Indonesia’s poorest regions. The district of Teluk Bintuni, where the new Tangguh plan is located, is lagging in most social and economic indicators, with the exception of regional GDP and child immunization. Revenues, expenditures and fiscal projections Since 2000, Papua’s revenues have increased fivefold (in real terms). Since 2002, when special autonomy started, revenues have increased 2.5 times (in real terms). Spending on government administration has traditionally dominated Papua’s expenditures. However, since 2006, infrastructure spending has increased substantially and overtaken government administration. After modest increases in the next 5 years, Papua’s overall revenues are expected to double by 2020 but only partly due to revenues from Tangguh LNG. However, the province of Papua Barat will substantially increase its revenues due to Tangguh. 1

Public investment, including for administration (e.g. cars offices) is part of the other economic categories. Excluding mining, the share of core government administration would raise to above 15% of GDP, one of the highest in Indonesia. ** Includes sectors such as manufacturing, financial services, electricity, gas, and water supply.

15 Transfers to Papua increased significantly in Since then, they remained stable for Papua province but continue to increase for Papua Barat’s due to higher Special Autonomy allocations Source: SIKD and Balancing Fund Allocation (Ministry of Finance).

In 2006, shared tax data only for income tax. -Since 2009, the central government “shares the burden” of energy and fertilizer subsidies with sub-national governments. Approximately 26% of the estimated subsidies will be deducted from the DAU-pool of sub-national governments. Papua BaratPapua 12

18 Assumptions for future revenue projections, particularly consi- dering additional revenues from Tangguh LNG (see next two slides) General revenue projection: Central government growth projections: 4.7% (2009), 5.6% (2010), 6.3% (2011), 6.40% (2012), 6.7% (2013), 7.0% (2014), 7.0% (2015), 7.0% (2016), 7.0% (2017), 7.0% (2018) Revenue/GDP (for US$ 40 per barrel, for other oil prices proportionately higher): 15.9% (2010), 15.7% (2011), 16.0% (2012), 16.6% (2013), 16.8% (2014), 16.9% (2015), 16.7% (2016), 16.6% (2017), 16.3% (2018) Ratio of Papua DAU to total national DAU: 5% Ratio of special autonomy fund to total national DAU: 2%. Ratio of Papua revenue sharing to total national revenue sharing: 4.4% Ratio of Papua DAK to total national DAK: 8.4% Revenue projection from Tangguh LNG: Annual production: gradually increase from 2.6 in 2010 to 7.6 million ton in Investment cost plus interest: USD 9.6 billion. Ratio of investment credit and cost recovery to gross revenue: 80%. Ratio of cost recovery to gross revenue: 30%. Contractor share of equity to be split: 71% (before tax). Effective tax rate: 44%. Regional tax: 13.6%. Revenue sharing to central government: 30%. Revenue sharing to Papua: 70%. 15 Note: For more details on the relationship between oil prices and the Indonesian budget as well as revenue sharing with the regions see Agustina et al “Black hole or black Gold? The impact of oil and gas prices on Indonesia’s Public Finances, Policy Research Working Paper (4718), World Bank.

19 Based on these assumptions, Papua’s revenues are expected to double by 2018, even though revenues from Tangguh would only add another 8-12% (Rp 3-5 trillion) in extra revenues Note: Consolidated data (province + districts) for Papua and Papua Barat, in constant price 2007=100. Source: MoF and WB staff estimation. 16

20 However, for Papua Barat the increase will be significant because it would incur all of Tangguh’s shared revenue: By 2018, at US$40 per barrel, revenues would increase by almost 30% compared to the baseline; at US$80 per barrel, revenues would increase by more than 50% Note: Consolidated data (province + districts) for province and districts in Papua Barat, in constant price 2007=100.
