It's a wise man who pays his taxes. Explanation: This is a slogan, appearing on the official website of Direktorat Jenderal Pajak. It is reportedly a successful initiative of the Taxation Directorate, introduced in the 1980's. (It's also a joke, as indicated in the second example sentence below.) The tax people are flattering those who pay their taxes by calling them 'orang bijak' because there's a big problem of tax avoidance and non-payment of taxes. Example sentence(s):
