The Ministry of Transmigration is also investigating the role of official steering organization, so that transmigrants have more guaranteed access, ranging from recruitment, training, to work protection. “Internships are limited, but its value is great to add skills, broaden their horizons and prepare them for their homeland and transmigration areas with new experiences. While the Japanese market for permanent work is very wide and potential,” Iftitah explained. This program is expected not only to open jobs, but also become a way to empower and increase the competitiveness of Indonesian transmigrants. The results of the meeting in Osaka are aimed at giving a concrete memorandum of understanding between the Ministry of Transmigration, AP2LN and Japanese partners regarding recruitment patterns, training and guarantees of labor protection. It is also optimistic that this step will provide a double advantage for the welfare for transmigrants and their families, as well as real contributions to national development. “If transmigration in the past was only synonymous with the construction of towns, our transmigrants can now also be an ambassador for Indonesian skills in the international world,” Iftitah concluded.
