Rick is correct. Both Squiz and dkfour do not take the "ini" into account sufficiently.
THE school('s) budget: here the 's is more or less optional and the meaning hardly changes. With 'the' the imprecission can be disregarded wether it's "the budget" or "the school" that gets marked.
For "THIS" it is important to make sure you know what you are pointing out.
"This school budget": "This budget of a/the school".
"This school's budget": "A/The budget of this school"
The position of "ini" in the Bahasa sentence only allows the last version as a correct translation.

Actually "ini" is not used as "this" in this sentence. "The budget of the school.." is given as the correct answer. In that case, "The school budget..." would be correct in English and should be an alternate answer.

The budget FOR this school is twenty million should be marked as correct. I think it is far better English.
