Abstract :

This paper is concerned with two main issues, Indonesian women working abroad in the informal sector and the potentials of other women  stakeholders  in  addressing  issues  faced  by  women migrant workers. Based on the assumption that an identification of  potential  women  at  various  levels,  local  and  national,  and institutions,  governmental  and  non-governmental,  may contribute  to  the  search  for  solutions  for  the  problems  faced  by the women migrant workers and that  women should be seen as active  actors  that  may  contribute  to  the  problem  solving.  A number  of  prominent  women  migrant  workers  advocates  in various parts within the labour migration system  is  to  guarantee a  protected  migration  for  women  labour.  It  suggests  for  the widening of the scope and activism of these advocate.
