  • Title: Deployment of Indonesian migrants in the Middle East: present situation and prospects.
    Author: Cremer G.
    Journal: Bull Indones Econ Stud; 1988 Dec; 24(3):73-86. PubMed ID: 12281679.
    Abstract:
    "This paper examines the Indonesian overseas employment program. It is limited to overseas deployment through the official channels, i.e. organised by licensed labour suppliers and approved by government authorities. The main destination of this official labour migration is the Middle East. Indonesian officials have indicated that the government aims to increase overseas employment and to shift deployment from houseworkers to better skilled workers. It is argued in the paper that, in view of a shrinking labour market for migrants, even limited realisation of these hopes would depend upon some distinct changes in the overseas employment program."
