My story as women worker (TKW)

Departure to Mecca is the 3rd time that I became a migrant in the Middle East after my experience in kuwait and jubail. Economic needs and the spirit of helping the family of the economic difficulties it became the most powerful reasons to leave the scores even though the man who wanted to marry me a wife. With the experience and desire to succeed me enroll in a PJTKI. No need to tell you or will tell the other stories in the area keberadaaku PJTKI. Fulfilling my desire pair of gold bracelets that I get from rest to earn a livelihood in jubail sold for registration costs and the needs of my life at the shelter.
After waiting for about 1 month I was sent to the employer promises to be better I serve is good walu family so the doctrine that good and I should always be robust according to the maids who depart. Dibandara I picked up one of the official agent of the employer there is not a reason to meet with employers on vacation.
The next day I was at home employers who welcomed me with hospitality typical saudi nation. I'm used to welcome and always expect a smile and kindness into their daily lives. But the desire to have a good employer that soon disappeared after a small mistake that should not be a problem as I did I verbally made a big mistake. In my heart I should kutekadkan prepared to face the real temperament of my new employer. Incidentally my employer has a fussy child who was always crying as they are always preoccupied with a honeymoon baby and felt it was a slave who had purchased new. Fussiness children are always the main problem I get yelled at and abused. I started a fight when they do respond to rudeness I attempted their roughness and at the third month I've had enough sense of their treatment and asked to be returned to the agent. I fulfilled my request brought to the agent and brought to their offices. There was mennunggu their employees including an Indonesia. An instant feeling of security after the Arabs lost the interrogating me after I told him that they were treating me harshly. A slap on the cheek and flew I hold no crying on the second question I answered as I say and not understanding what I get but a few punches landed in advance and my body. Was crushed face and my body. Without the results I was dragged back home even though my employer employer promised to treat myself better. Day 3 began to return to my master slap beberapakali get every damned. Insults and invective into the food each day is not a serious problem but increasing the employer's behavior when trying to rudeness with hard objects which endanger jiwaku.Aku always reject violence in any form because I know all their character and refusal to excuse employers treat roughly man myself though I sometimes fight. While employers come to the suffering of women in the form of insults and other rudeness. I was never afraid to face the employer where the roughness sister always get every damned.
Defenses faltered again and I again asked to be returned to the agent in the hope that agents believe the story but again I got another harsh treatment. Employers agent front man slapped cheek until blackened. I was dragged by the arab agent into the room and though I still fear being dragged and fear began to haunt me. In the room I was asked again the reason for asking for leave but was answered by slapping both cheeks until it was swollen sore. Indonesia sees people enter and watch as the two times I was asked and re-punched and slapped by then he just held the hand of the Arabs. The fear was back when people were out of Indonesia and the Arabs seemed to be kind enough to seduce me with my employer but I do not want to hand the agent who squeezed my butt and back furious when I refused God still helps me when my master came in and asked what had happened. With a face full of hypocrisy agency head kissed cheeks and show that I have been guided. I was dragged back home boss this time I do not believe anymore with all the sweet promises and persuasion employer.
I think the madness really getting into some employers who try do violence break though I have suffered with the punches and insults. Often times I had to run back to the room and locked myself away. The fear was happening when I was terrified and immediately I quickly hid in the closet about a few hours.
One day I was cooking when the kitchen employer approached him and tried mengangguku by threatening to hit me with a bottle. I can not stand it and I have to survive with a knife I picked up my crying I grabbed the knife swinging a broom and turned also to pursue their Play in the end they all left. I went back to the room a bath until they know and to be panic. They seduce me to come out and apologize but I do not want to grant the request for repatriation. Finally they put me to the agent. Arriving at the agent fears haunt me but maybe I have a year to work my agent did not treat me with a rough and they agreed to return me to Indonesia.
Some stories do not write about how I sent a letter to go through the garbage and experiences faced by employers brothers. Thank God I got to Indonesia despite the fact I'm back with another story in the city of Dammam. Sallam to another TKI luck Mesi

press freedom conditions in Middle east

Indonesia is still a lot of people do not believe that quite a lot of migrant workers who are victims of rape in the Arab land there. They considered the Arab's faith and still relatives of the Prophet, so could not have done it senista. Although there are some newspapers that wrote about the incident, they are still not sure. News that he saw as Western propaganda to discredit all of Islam.
For example there is a milister named A. Nizami. He was a member of ppiindia mailing list and a few other mailing lists. He is also a moderator-Indonesia Economic mailing list. "Does the moon have maids who were raped on the Arabic? No! If there is, certainly dominated the media crowded memblow infidel-up," he wrote. "So the maids who were raped in Arabic no more than 3 people per year," she commented with entengnya. Whether he knew where that figure. Sexual Rudapaksa is generally carried out by the employer or the employer's children. only the brave TKW want to report to the police or the Embassy. Some fear because he's often the case even arrested. There are also reported rogue elements in the Embassy who even peddled TKW to Arab men.
Actually, this issue is very interesting for the journalists who want to do tracking and coverage is widespread. Let me take a few moments walk to the town of Sukabumi and other small towns in Java, which has annual TKW suppliers. In the village we would see teenagers and children faced kearab-araban. Although she faced a typical Indonesian yes.
If to cover direct to Saudi Arabia and the Arab countries might be a little more trouble, yes, because the government system is very closed. Make friends ever resident in Saudi Arabia or Kuwait and Arab countries another, do you know about press freedom conditions there?
Salam reja

15 to 20 babies born from female workforce

Each month, approximately 15 to 20 babies born from the womb of the female workforce (TKW) as a result of an affair with their employers. The statement surfaced in Public Dialogue "Handling Trafficking of Domestic Workers" held the top leadership Fatayat Nahdlatul Ulama (NU) in Sunanul Huda Pondok Pesantren Sukabumi, Sunday (10 / 4) One of the participants of the Chairman of the Institute of Complementary and Manpower Development Indonesia ( PPTKI), Normawati said, the data obtained from the arrival of Indonesian workers (TKI) of women in the Terminal III of Soekarno Hatta Airport in Jakarta. This figure does not include the women who are pregnant workers. "Not infrequently the maids came while carrying dozens of babies," explained Norma.
According to him, the workers who carried the child is generally working in the Middle East, Saudi Arabia and some of them work in Malaysia. "Ironically, the babies are children of migrant workers mostly from West Java," he said. Because it would not be surprised if everyone arrived at the airport there is always sound that gives workers who do not want the baby to someone she met at the airport. Chances are they ashamed to carry the baby to her house and could be a sign of his family said.
Norma mentioned, when he was a "mandate" to preserve the child's 15 workers, two of which were four months old. "Even once there was a female migrant workers who asked me to take care of two children of his relationship with the prison warden. It is said that he was imprisoned in Kuwait for 14 years.
From the results of the LPPTKI assistance workers also revealed that experienced one case of a home workers named Khodijah Attack. He was abused by unscrupulous local Embassy when asked for protection after running from her employer.
"When the maktab Embassy, turned out by unscrupulous Khodijah Embassy is again a victim of trafficking. He was sold to the five Arab men, and forced to 'serve' them," said Norma.
Say, the trafficking of women workers is not only happening outside Indonesia. Because after their return in any country that still haunt the crime they. In this present crisis conditions the airport may already be considered quite safe for the workers because there is a special escort provided by the police.
However, that does not mean the workers are safe from crime. Because there is still a crime, such as the treatment of black taxi driver. Or even when I got back home and still hear the workers are being played by motorcycle taxi drivers.
In this dialogue a chance, a girl from Sumbawa West Nusa Tenggara (NTB) is only three months arrived back in Indonesia, tells his experience as a domestic servant (PRT) in a family in the state of Kuwait.
Evi, so that the maiden name tell from the beginning lugasnya his arrival in Kuwait until he escaped from his master's house, when the male employer asked him to become his second wife. Living in the shelter at the local Embassy for four months, does not make peace, because he said, many elements Embassy of 'use' to be sold back to the man masher.
"Because not want to serve, I've punched by unscrupulous Embassy that. Finally, I also chose to work dogs, rats, etc. to feed., So I had a little money," explained Evi.
At the event attended by hundreds of officials and members of the City of NU Fatayat Bogor, Kab. Bogor, Kab. Cianjur, Sukabumi and Kab. Sukabumi that, Evi said also that he had imprisoned for 20 days in jail in Kuwait.
"In prison there are 3,000 people turned out more migrant workers (female workers, red) from Indonesia. In fact, many of whom have children," said Evi. (D-27) *** http://www.pikiran-rakyat.com / cetak/2005/0405/12/0105.htm

bisnis or womens traficking

Strangely enough, we become "jayuts" (the opposite of "ghirrah"), does not care about our women are colonized honor. Is that why this nation continue to be stricken disaster? NEWS helm released NU Fatayat that approximately 15 to 20 babies born from the womb of the female workforce (TKW) Indonesia, it should surprise us. Being not surprising because this event has lasted a long time and had a lot of people know. Even so, he revealed back cases like this was jerking and our heartbreaking. It's so miskinkah this nation so that disgrace and humiliation that we get every day just to swallow? We are silent, without speaking, without protest, like a slave who could be touched and traded. Poor and poverty is the providence of God that can be changed by our efforts.
God never show one's destiny, but always be a mystery, so that people looking for answers. Humans are not struggling to solve the mystery of his fate will remain sunk in poverty and pauperism. While those who successfully solve the problem of his life, will find his destiny as a rich man. Unfortunately, the mystery becomes more structured in a system state, so the rich or the poor people are dependent on the extent to which governments care about the prosperity of his nation.
In fact, wealth and poverty in Indonesia was patterned nation. The one hand, few people have so much wealth that countless. On the other hand, so many of the people of this country who are under the poverty line, so just get a meal for the day was difficult. This all illustrates the government's responsibility to its people prosperity is not implemented well. Instead of realizing common prosperity of the people, which happened just ration continued prosperity of the people encroached on the bureaucrats and businessmen through corruption, collusion and nepotism (KKN).
Poverty is the real property does not prevent a person go to heaven, as the rich are eligible to enter heaven. However, if the Indonesian people experiencing poverty wealth, and conscience, what can you expect from these people? Poverty property is marked with state and private debt that had accumulated more than 150 billion U.S. dollars. Existing state assets continue to be sold to foreigners with a very low price. While the rest of the existing assets to plunder the bureaucrats and businessmen, by way of corruption.
The poor people trying to invade the city, leaving home, just looking for a job to sustain life. In the city, the work has reached saturation point, let alone a crisis hit the country since 1977 until today did not visit recovered. Not only new employees, employees who continued to experience long layoffs. As a result of unbalance between job vacancies and job seekers, then look for overseas employment became an option.
Unfortunately, once again, the government is not responsive enough to the people who try to survive. People left to fend for themselves in foreign countries without adequate protection. Government supposed to provide legal protection and adequate protection. But in fact, the workers, migrant workers also became the bait of labor brokers. They become cash cow by way of collusion between bureaucrats and their brokers.
Yet, in country people, the workers and the migrant workers worked furiously. The maids have to deal with employers who do not know mercy and did not hesitate to rape, do not pay salaries, and tortured him. While the woman who escaped from their employers often have very bad luck because the next becomes soft bait mavia labor.
So we are not surprised to hear the fate of the maids of every month at least 15 to 20 people containing master babies or babies who are not clear. In Jeddah, Saudi Arabia for example, Consul General of Indonesia in there every month to accommodate approximately 150 people were migrant workers who fled from her employer. In Ryadh, approximately 400 people took shelter with TKW RI Embassy there, in Kuwait the figure is also more than 300 people. Not to mention that in Malaysia, Singapore, Taiwan and so on. Surprisingly, we become jayuts (the opposite of ghirrah), does not care about our women are colonized honor. Is that why this nation continue to be stricken disaster? Let us introspection.

INdonesia migrant worker in Saudia arabia

Tuesday, July 8,2008 : HRWSource: Antara NewsMany Indonesian migrant workers in Saudi Arabia endured serious human rights violation and horrendous cruelties, according to the latest report of Human Rights Watch (HRW) released here Tuesday.
"Therefore, the Saudi Arabian government should immediately effect reforms in its manpower and immigration sectors, and its criminal courts to protect migrant workers in the country from criminal acts and enslavement," HRW executive director Kenneth Roth said at a press conference.
A 155-page report titled: "As If I Were Not a Human Being: Arbitrary Action Against Household Workers from Asia in Saudi Arabia" said many Saudi Arabian employers who violated human rights did not face proper punishment for their arbitrary action against migrant workers who worked as house maids.
According to the report, many Saudi Arabian employers had committed sexual and physical violence against their house maids, and failed to pay their salaries for months, even years, and sometimes forcefully confined them.
"If the house maids in Saudi Arabia were lucky, they would enjoy good working conditions with good bosses, but otherwise they would be treated like slaves," said Nisha Varia, a senior observer at HPW's Women Rights Division. She said Saudi Arabia was employing at least 1.5 million house maids from Asian countries such as Indonesia, Sri Lanka, the Philippines, and Nepal.
"We cannot obtain definite statistical data on the number of the cases, but we have found out that every year thousands of problematic migrant workers are accommodated at Saudi Arabian Social Affairs Ministry offices and the embassies of their original countries," Nisha said. She said many of the migrant workers were forced to work 18 hours per day, seven days a week. After interviewing 86 migrant house maids, HRW concluded that some 36 workers had endured arbitrary action from their employers such as human trade, slavery, and forced labor.
