More than just ceremonial visits, this activity is also part of the Ministry of Protection of Indonesian Migrant Workers (KemenP2MI) efforts to strengthen collaboration with the mass media in conveying strategic information about the protection of migrant workers, as well as spreading a positive narrative about retired migrant workers who have succeeded in contributing significantly to the regional economy.
Minister Karding also emphasized the importance of making the media a partner in building the image of Indonesian migrant workers who are empowered and successful. A story like what Suparno experienced, said Minister Karding, is proof that the experience of working abroad can be a provision for building a better life in his hometown, if managed properly and given the right support.
