JAKARTA - The Provincial Government (Pemprov) of the Bangka Belitung Islands (Babel) conducted guidance on 77 non-procedural or illegal migrant workers from Babylon who were successfully repatriated by the government from the Myanmar-Thailand border.

Guidance is carried out so that they are no longer trapped and work abroad illegally.

The Babel Provincial Government's efforts to protect migrant workers in coordination with the Ministry of Protection of Indonesian Migrant Workers (KemenP2MI) through the Indonesian Migrant Workers Protection Service Center (BP3MI) South Sumatra (Sumsel).

"This guidance is so that these migrant workers do not repeat their actions of working as non-procedural Indonesian migrant workers," said Head of the Training, Manpower Placement and Transmigration Division of the Babel Islands Manpower Service (Disnaker) Wira Purnama in Pangkalpinang, Friday, April 18, as reported by Antara.

He said as many as 77 illegal Indonesian migrant workers were trapped on the Myanmar-Thailand border, starting with getting information from social media and mouth-to-mouth about work as customer services with the lure of a large salary of around Rp. 10-15 million per month.

But in fact, they are employed as scammers with salaries paid an average of IDR 4-6 million per month and burdened by a large target. If they are not achieved they will get physical and mental torture.

"We are not only conducting coaching, but also socializing the right procedures for working abroad," he said.

According to him, many modes were carried out to trick officers related to the departure of illegal Indonesian migrant workers, so synergy and coordination of cross-stakeholders for prevention is needed.

In addition, the Babel Manpower Office also continues to provide training for people who want to go abroad through competency-based training in accordance with the mandate of the Minister for the Protection of Indonesian Migrant Workers (P2MI) Abdul Kadir Karding.

"To reduce the occurrence of illegal Indonesian migrant workers, we continue to coordinate with cross-sectors such as BP3MI South Sumatra, the Babel Immigration Regional Office, the police, district and city office to disseminate information about the massive proper work procedures in accordance with their respective authorities to the villages," he said.
