INDONESIA:::Migrant workers concerned about new leaders


Former migrant workers from Lombok and Sumbawa in West Nusa Tenggara (NTB) want the country's next leaders, elected in the July 9 presidential election, to be concerned with the fate and prosperity of migrant workers and their families.
“There have been so many injustices, including torture and sexual abuse. We hope that our new leaders will be concerned with workers abroad and can guarantee better working conditions,” Ibrahim, 45, a former migrant worker from Central Lombok, told The Jakarta Post.
