According to a report by the Indonesian Migrant Worker Protection Agency (BP2MI), there were 1,156 complaints from Indonesian migrant workers (IMWs) between January and September 2024.

The number of complaints has fluctuated. The highest number was recorded in May 2024 with 226 cases, while the lowest was in February 2024 with 81 cases.

The latest data shows 134 cases reported by IMWs in September 2024. Of these, only 0.75% have been resolved, with the remaining 99.25% still under process.

The most common type of complaint reported to BP2MI was failed departures, with 45 cases.

This was followed by IMWs requesting repatriation (33 cases), unpaid wages (10 cases), and social security issues (9 cases).

BP2MI also reported that the most complaints last month originated from Taiwan (41 cases), followed by Malaysia (30 cases), Saudi Arabia (14 cases), Cambodia (13 cases), and the UAE (6 cases).

Separately, the Bali Provincial Government repatriated 3 migrant workers from Lebanon. This step was taken to mitigate the impact of the Israeli attacks on Lebanon since September 16, 2024, which have killed thousands.

"We have to take mitigating actions to prevent them from being affected, for their safety. News reports indicate some are still staying there, perhaps because they don't feel affected," said the Head of Bali's Manpower and ESDM Agency, Ida Bagus Setiawan, as reported by *Antara* on Tuesday (8/9/2024).
