This study is intended to provide general descriptions of the actors involved in the management of remittance sent by Indonesian migrant workers from their working abroad. Data was collected through interviewing 2 actors at the national level, a national NGO and a government institution, and 3 actors at the grassroot level, a local NGO, academic, and a community of women migrant workers. The interview is intended to identify the actors involved, their relative position and function within the remittance flow, bad practices that need to be avoided, and best practices that need to be replicated. This study found that there are still needs for: safe and cheap remittance sending mechanism, remittance is still mainly used for consumption, there is a need for capacity building to assist Indonesian migrant workers to start their own business, and the strong influence of patriarchy culture in the management of remittance sent by women migrant workers.
Kajian ini ditujukan untuk memberikan gambaran umum tentang aktor yang terlibat dalam pengelolaan aliran dana yang dikirimkan oleh buruh migran Indonesia sebagai hasil mereka bekerja di luar negeri. Pengumpulan data dilakukan dengan mewawancarai 2 aktor di tingkat nasional, NGO nasional dan badan pemerintah, dan 3 aktor di tingkat akar rumput, NGO lokal, akademisi dan komunitas buruh migran perempuan. Wawancara ditujukan untuk mengetahui siapa aktor yang terlibat, posisi relatif mereka dan fungsi yang mereka jalankan dalam alur remitansi, praktik buruk yang perlu dihindari, dan praktik baik yang patut direplikasi. Penelitian ini menemukan masih diperlukannya mekanisme pengiriman remitansi yang aman dan murah, remitansi masih lebih digunakan untuk kebutuhan konsumsi, diperlukannya capacity building untuk membantu BMI memulai usaha, masih kentalnya budaya patriarki dalam pemanfaatan remitansi yang datang dari buruh migran perempuan.
