"The migrant worker placement schemes vary from G-to-G (government-to-government), P-to-P (private-to-private), and inter-corporate transfers, to independent placements," the Minister said. 

As a form of protection for Indonesian migrant workers working abroad, Indonesia has imposed several provisions on the countries of placement, for instance, the destination country must have regulations that protect foreign workers in all sectors as well as have a memorandum of understanding (MoU) with Indonesia.

Moreover, the placement country must have a social security and/or insurance system that protects foreign workers and its migrant placement system must be integrated with Indonesia's.

"Currently, the Indonesian government has a policy of placing skilled and certified migrant workers in accordance with their fields to occupy jobs in the formal sector," Minister Ida Fauziyah informed. 

As information, Indonesia is currently experiencing a demographic bonus, where the productive age population is dominating the overall population, the minister added.

To optimize this potential, the government of Indonesia is continuing to improve the skills and competitiveness of Indonesian human resources through vocational training.

"We hope that both countries can develop cooperation in vocational training exchange programs," the Minister concluded.
