JAKARTA - The Indonesian Migrant Workers Protection Agency (BP2MI) has proposed to the Ministry of Manpower (Kemnaker) to revoke the license for the distribution agent for prospective non-procedural Indonesian migrant workers (PMI). This was conveyed by the Head of BP2MI Benny Rhamdani after the release of 349 prospective Indonesian Migrant Workers (PMI) for the intergovernmental program (G to G) in Kelapa Gading, North Jakarta, Monday, November 14. In fact, he continued, his party already knew the name of one of the companies that distributed the non-procedural PMI candidates during a raid in Jatisampurna, Bekasi City, West Java on September 30, 2022, with the initials PT ZZP. "The company is clear who PT Zam Zam (Perwita) is, then the main director is clear who it is. Please now be the authority (Kemnaker) for the legal process. BP2MI has followed up on the proposal to the Ministry of Manpower to revoke the permit," said Benny as quoted by Antara. So far, companies that have been caught dispatching non-procedural PMI candidates, as the results of the raid on September 30, 2022, where there were 161 non-procedural PMI candidates in Bekasi, are definitely recommended to the Ministry of Manpower for the revocation of their permits. "So far, BP2MI's recommendations (to the Ministry of Manpower) must be to revoke permits, we will not mess around with people's trade," said Benny. In addition, Benny also targets to be able to imprison anyone who is a syndicate in the placement of the non-procedural PMI candidate in collaboration with Polda Metro Jaya, to prove that the state must not lose to the syndicates and mafias for the placement of the non-procedural PMI candidates. "The legal process is now at Polda Metro Jaya and the Kapolda has attended a direct press conference with me at the BP2MI office, this process is road and we are targeting to be able to imprison anyone who is a syndicate for placing the non-procedural PMI candidate," said Benny.
