A Review of Indonesian Emigrants
In recent years, Indonesia has undergone major economic, social and political transformations. Given the significant emigration of the Indonesian population and the recognition of the contributions of the diaspora, Indonesian authorities are seeking to better understand this pool of talent residing abroad, which has great potential to contribute to the economic and social development of Indonesia. This review provides the first comprehensive portrait of the Indonesian diaspora in OECD countries. By profiling Indonesian emigrants, this review aims to strengthen knowledge about this community and thus help to consolidate the relevance of the policies deployed by Indonesia towards its emigrants.
Labour market outcomes of Indonesian migrants
This chapter analyses the labour market integration of Indonesian emigrants in main OECD destination countries through several key indicators such as labour market participation, employment and unemployment rates. These results are also analysed by sex, educational attainment, length of stay and citizenship status, as well as across destination countries and over time. Finally, the chapter examines the distribution of Indonesian emigrants across sectors and occupations in selected OECD destination countries, with a particular focus on over‑qualification rates. The chapter systematically compares the outcomes of Indonesian emigrants to the outcomes of emigrants from the ASEAN countries, the foreign-born and native populations of the OECD countries.
