00:02 I don't know how to say it, but it's a mix of responses from myself.

00:18 We are also waiting to see if this study is done based on the weight of oil.

00:25 The price of oil per ton.

00:27 So there are many things that are not clear.

00:32 And we also asked about the tax on expensive goods.

00:42 Luxury, tax.

00:44 From the budget for 2023, it seems unclear until now.

00:49 And he wants to continue.

00:51 So, for example, is Tesla considered a luxury goods or not?

00:57 EV car.

00:59 Apart from watches, bags, how about vehicles, how about other products.

01:04 I think there are many more things that we need to discuss.

01:07 This is the purpose of the discussion, to hear the further explanation from all the ministers involved.

01:14 How can what the Finance Minister said be implemented?

01:20 Usually in the budget, everything is beautiful and beautiful.

01:24 But the most important thing is implementation.

01:28 For example, last year in the budget for 2023, the Prime Minister promised to cut poverty by the end of this year.

01:39 How has the government achieved this by using the budget for 2023?

01:44 These are the things that I will try to raise and ask the Finance Minister and other ministers.

01:51 For example, the Tesla investment.

01:55 At the end of the day, it's all about charging stations, it's not about automotive production.

02:01 So where are the quality investments that were previously exaggerated?

02:06 Where will it really go down to the people?

02:10 We can only know that when the explanation is made by the Ministers and the discussion later.

02:15 Maybe because of the financial situation, we can see that the development challenges are still low.

02:22 And I think we will analyze all the existing data and we will see the whole picture.

02:30 Whatever improvements I see, including the challenges to the schools,

02:37 the religious schools that were stopped can be re-prepared.

02:40 But I see the challenges of climate change to the surrounding environment,

02:45 I need to look more specifically at the implications and threats that occur.

02:51 I see that the existing conditions are not satisfactory and there are some aspects that need to be mediated.
