Sample Statement Letter and Details on How to Make It

Statement letter is a form of formal letter used in Indonesia. Of course there are other versions of this letter in various countries as binding contracts. In its use, this binding contract is formal and more as evidence that can even be used legally.

In everyday life, statements can be either verbal or non-verbal. For example, you could promise verbally to return the money you borrowed to buy meatballs. This statement is of course still binding as a promise, but when you want to prove it, the process is more difficult. Of course, evidence for an oral statement can be in the form of other people's witnesses who heard or witnessed your statement. Even so, if there are no witnesses, you can easily break the promises you have made.

Well, if you make a written statement, this evidence will certainly be easier to use. If you are evasive, for example, the party that gave you the debt can show the letter as proof. Things like this make the use of a written statement important to learn.
