Abstract

The activity of placing Indonesian migrant workers abroad has problems that are detrimental to migrant workers and the state, limitations and deviations in implementation can be found in planning, implementation and weak supervision. In terms of planning and operations there are weaknesses in managing information on job vacancies abroad and how prospective TKIs are prepared. The utilization of foreign employment opportunities is still in the informal sector (use of services not incorporated). Even if the placement in the formal sector continues to increase, but in terms of the quality of TKI, it is limited to filling in positions that only require basic skills such as those placed in Malaysia. The Malaysian immigration office recorded foreign workers from 22 countries totaling 1,914,053, more than three-fifths (61.46%) coming from Indonesia. Those who worked as household managers in the middle of 2007 numbered approximately 320,000 people, the largest part of this type of work (PLRT / PRT) reached a total of 300,000 female workers from Indonesia.

Labor migration “is a term used to describe movement/migration carried out by people from one place to another, with the aim of working or finding work”.

While at the multilateral level, Indonesia has ratified the “International Convention on the Protection of the Rights of All Migrant Workers and Members of Their Families” with Republic of Indonesia
