BATAM - The Batam Immigration Class I Special Immigration Checkpoint (TPI) has postponed the departure of 598 Indonesian citizens (WNI) abroad who are suspected of becoming Indonesian Migrant Workers (PMI). Head of the Immigration Office Class I Special for TPI Batam Subki Miuldi said the 598 Indonesian citizens were Batam Immigration records in the period April to August 2022. We did this delay, because they wanted to go abroad, allegedly becoming non-procedural or illegal PMIs through the Batam Center International Port,” said Subki in Batam Riau Islands, Antara, Tuesday, September 13. The postponement process was taken based on the results of interviews with immigration officers in the field. "Officers conducted interviews regarding their intentions and goals of traveling abroad," said Subki. From the results of the interview, officers found out that they were going abroad to work, but without complete documents to become PMI. Furthermore, said Subki again, for Indonesian citizens who are included in the Batam Immigration delay list, surveillance will continue to be carried out. <quo; We will continue to carry out periodic monitoring, of course, in collaboration with related parties at the port,” he also said.
