TRANSMIGRATION: BUILDING MODERN ECONOMIC OPPORTUNITIES THROUGH MARITIME LOGISTICS HUBS In the past, the transmigration program successfully relocated 750,000 families, giving them a chance to build a better life. Today, their children and grandchildren are working in major cities, benefiting from the improved welfare their families achieved. However, modern transmigration must be designed to attract population movement naturally, not just as a forced relocation. With hundreds of ships passing through the straits of Eastern Indonesia every day, there is tremendous potential to create TRADE CONNECTIVITY by developing PORTS AS LOGISTICS HUBS and/ or TRANSHIPMENT PORTS. These ports would not only serve as distribution centers for international trade routes, but also revitalize local economies by generating jobs and creating new economic opportunities. By reforming the transmigration program, strategic regions across Indonesia can thrive naturally, attracting population movement while turning PORTS into engines of local economic growth, seamlessly integrated into the global market. This vision for a reformed transmigration program reminds me of my late father, M.M. Sangian (Papie), who worked alongside Bapak Sumitro Djojohadikusumo. My memories of Papie inspire me ♥️ #Transmigration #MaritimeEconomy #LogisticsHub #TranshipmentPort #TransmigrationReform #TradeConnectivity #PopulationMovement #GlobalLogistics

🌏 Global South Paper of the Month! "Filipino migrant workers’ leisure and subjective quality of life in Macao" by Jaeyeon Choe O' Regan, PhD, Michael J. O' Regan, PhD & Albert Kimbu. Available in free access in World Leisure Journal, the official #journal of World Leisure Organization: https://lnkd.in/ggFCGVGP ABSTRACT Utilizing 14 semi-structured interviews in a non-western context, this exploratory study examines how Filipino migrant workers’ leisure satisfaction and QoL are intertwined in Macao, China. The study reveals that Filipino migrant workers regard “family and friends”, and a sense of community as central to their QoL. Regarding leisure, the Filipino migrant workers experienced a lack of time-off and long working hours (structural leisure constraints) whilst living without their families in the Philippines (interpersonal leisure constraints). In addition, the Filipino migrant workers noted that few leisure options were available to them, and given commercial options dominate in Macao, the perceived cost of leisure participation clashes with the Filipino migrant workers responsibility to send remittances home. It is recommended that authorities and employers explore the importance of subjective QoL indicators such as sense of community that emerge from marginalized social groups, such as migrant workers, into their measurement systems and policy deliberations, to create a livable and sustainable community for all. Our study enriches the extant research by broadening the research location to focus on “voices” from low income migrants in a non-western context. #research #leisure #leisurestudies #community #filipino #migrant #migration #macao #china

In his speech, the President stated that the Golden Visa facilitates foreign nationals (WNA) in investing and working, thus providing a multiplier effect on the Indonesian economy. The Golden Visa is an adaptive and responsive policy from the Ministry of Law and Human Rights, through the Directorate General of Immigration, manifesting one of the immigration functions as a facilitator for community welfare development. Golden Visa holders are expected to enjoy several exclusive benefits of this type of visa. These include a longer stay period (up to 10 years), priority service access at international airport immigration, and efficiency as there is no longer a need to process a limited stay permit (ITAS) at the immigration office. The types of Golden Visas include Individual Investors, Corporate Investors, Former Indonesian Citizens, Descendants of Former Indonesian Citizens, Second Home, Global Talent, and World Figures. The Golden Visa can be applied for through evisa.imigrasi.go.id and has been integrated with banking services so that Golden Visa applicants can deposit immigration guarantees online from their country of origin.

Malaysia hosts a significant immigrant population, primarily from neighboring countries like Indonesia, Bangladesh, Myanmar, and Nepal. These migrants play a crucial role in various sectors of the Malaysian economy, particularly in labor-intensive industries such as manufacturing, agriculture, and construction. While they contribute to economic growth, they also face challenges like exploitation, poor working conditions, and limited access to basic services. Malaysia's immigration policies and the treatment of immigrants remain complex issues with ongoing debates and discussions.

Where is the shared space for businesses and governments to protect migrant workers, and how is migrant participation recognized in that? We had a great panel at the Bali Process Government & Business Forum talking about the challenges from all angles. Mahendra Pandey for migrant representation, Ruwan Keragala for the private sector, and Rina Komaria for the Government of Indonesia.
