Diaspora is an immigrant or person who left his homeland to live in another country. This migrant goes to another country to find a better life, it could be for work, school and others at a time.

According to Sujatmiko's expert, diaspora is a term that refers to ethnic populations who are encouraged or forced to leave their homeland. This diaspora developed due to the spread of culture to various countries of the world.

The word diaspora comes from the Greek language, namely 'dias' which means through and'speiren' which means spreading or sowing. The combination of the two words means the spread or distribution of humans in a large area.

So it can be said that diaspora is an Indonesian citizen who lives abroad. These migrants or diaspora are abroad for a certain period of time and will return to Indonesia.

There are several people who can be included in the diaspora category. Reporting from the kemlu.go.id page, here are people who are recognized as dipora by the Indonesian government.

There are several factors that cause the emergence of the diaspora phenomenon. Several things that cause the diaspora of the Indonesian nation, namely natural disasters, are looking for a more appropriate life, forced by conflict.

An example of the Indonesian people's diaspora caused by conflicts that occurred in the 19th to 20th centuries. There was a displacement of thousands of Indonesians sent to Suriname by force.

An example of diaspora because it wants to earn a more decent living is still massive until now. It is proven that there are still many Indonesians who become migrant workers abroad, such as to Arabia, Malaysia, Taiwan, Japan, and so on.

There are still many people who misunderstand the same diaspora as immigrants. Even though both of them have differences. Diaspora are residents or residents who live in other countries for a certain period of time to find a better life in terms of work, education, and so on.

While immigrants are individual residents or groups of people who leave their country to live in other countries permanently. Historically, immigrants occur due to wars and natural disasters in an area that forces residents to look for other safer places.

The word immigrants come from Latin, namely'migration' which means population transfer between countries. There are two types of immigrants, namely legal immigrants and illegal immigrants. Illegal immigrants are people who carry out immigrant activities by carrying official or legal travel documents. Meanwhile, illegal immigrants or illegal immigrants are people who enter or live in a country secretly which includes violating immigration laws.

So far, the term immigrants are attached to a negative stigma or have a negative impact on the countries they visit.
