JAKARTA - Minister of Protection for Indonesian Migrant Workers (PPMI) Abdul Kadir Karding revealed that many migrant workers were involved in financial problems.
In fact, he continued, many migrant workers who returned to the country did not get richer.
"So I often say that some of our migrant workers when they come home are not getting richer but sometimes getting poorer. There are many problems, divorce, take home children, the family's life is hedon," said Karding at the Ministry of SOEs office, Jakarta, Wednesday, November 20.
Therefore, said Karding, in a meeting with SOE Minister Erick Thohir, his party was looking for solutions for the financial management of migrant workers through the set of state-owned banks.
"We are still looking for schemes with the banks in Himbara to overcome things like this. Including BPJS Kesehatan, it's also up to us to make it up," he explained.
"Because we have empowerment interests, including in the context of how to manage the finances of our migrant workers, especially those with low skills, in the context so that they don't become a problem for themselves and their families," he continued.
Meanwhile, SOE Minister Erick Thohir expressed his full support from SOEs for the protection ecosystem for Indonesian migrant workers.
"We support the PPMI ecosystem, both for departure facilities and arrivals at the airport," said Erick.
