Narasumber

positive - Muazzim Akbar (Ketua Umum Asosiasi Pengusaha Pekerja Migran Indonesia (APPMI))
The reason that we are requesting this is because these PMI have a large contribution to the
region through remittance and not to mention the contribution to reducing unemployment

positive - Muazzim Akbar (Ketua Umum Asosiasi Pengusaha Pekerja Migran Indonesia (APPMI))
We are concerned that the destination country will seek manpower from other countries, and
this is not what we want. This is because once that occurs, the demand for our PMI will
automatically decrease because it has been taken by other countries that could prove
disadvantageous for the people and the region

positive - Tamam (Sekretaris Asosiasi Pengusaha Pekerja Migran Indonesia (APPMI)) If COVID-
19 is the problem, then the destination country has prepared strict COVID-19 health protocols

APPMI SEEKS MINISTRY'S APPROVAL TO SEND MIGRANT WORKERS TO MALAYSIA

Indonesia's Migrant Workers Employers Association (APPMI) has sought approval of the
Manpower Ministry (Kemenaker) to send Indonesian migrant workers (PMI) to Malaysia.
Head of APPMI Muazzim Akbar stated here on Saturday that the majority, or 90 percent, of the
PMI from West Nusa Tenggara (NTB) had been sent to Malaysia.

NTB's economy has been affected and unemployment has increased since the province is no
longer able to send migrant workers to Malaysia, according to Akbar.
