Income of Indonesian Citizens Working in the United States Increased by 500%

"Dream - The Central Statistics Agency (BPS) revealed that Indonesians working in the United States (US) have experienced an income increase of up to 500 percent. Acting Head of BPS, Amalia Adininggar Widyasanti, stated that this increase is outlined in a report released by the World Bank."

The translation of "Faktor Meningkatnya Pendapatan" to English is "Factors Increasing Income".

"According to Amalia, the increase in income is based on a comparison of a person's income when working in Indonesia with migrating and working in the United States."

"So low skilled migrants also prove that society or humans move to other countries because they want to obtain better income, higher welfare, 500 percent than if they stay in Indonesia,""

"he stated at the BPS Office, Jakarta, quoted from Liputan6.com, Wednesday, December 15, 2023."

"According to him, this percentage increase is among the highest when compared to migrants from countries other than Indonesia. However, there are several other factors that also play a role."

"Amalia refers to the World Development Report 2023 published by the World Bank. The report notes that migration is most commonly undertaken by residents from middle- and low-income countries to better-off countries. The impact of this migration is said to affect not only economic levels but also social levels. This is true not only for the destination countries but also for the countries that are passed through or are in transit."

The migration that is carried out also affects the decrease in poverty rates in the country of origin. Amalia assumes that with the increase in income, migrant families in the country of origin will also benefit from it.

"From the remittance side, the World Bank report also shows that the money sent by migrant workers to their families has an impact on reducing poverty in the countries where those families live,"

The translation of "ungkap Amalia." to English is "reveal Amalia."

"Amalia explained that the migration decision was not just for personal income. Rather, it also has a positive impact on the family of the person who moved jobs."

"So it means that besides migrating for his own livelihood needs, to obtain a better living, it turns out that this has a further impact on the family that is left behind. Because his salary is transferred to his family, and his family can escape from the trap of poverty," said Amalia."
