        "summary": "Two Indonesian migrant workers from NTB have gone viral on social media after claiming they were trafficked to Saudi Arabia and forced into prostitution, servicing up to 450 men monthly under threat of withheld wages. The Head of BP3MI NTB, Ponco Indriyo, stated that no formal complaints have been received from their families, but the agency is actively investigating their identities in coordination with the Indonesian Embassy and Foreign Ministry. This incident underscores the ongoing vulnerabilities faced by Indonesian migrant workers abroad and the need for stronger protective measures against human trafficking.",
        "content": "<p>The Head of the NTB Migrant Worker Protection Service Agency (BP3MI),\nPonco Indriyo, admitted that he has not yet received any complaints from\nthe families of two Indonesian migrant workers (PMI) from NTB who went\nviral for claiming they were forced by their employer in Saudi Arabia to\nservice 15 lecherous men.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAs of today, we have not received any complaints from the families.\nUsually, if something is hidden, there would be information from the\nfamily. But so far, there hasn\u2019t been any,\u201d said Ponco when contacted by\ndetikBali on Wednesday (6\/5\/2026).<\/p>\n<p>Ponco stated that BP3MI is continuing to trace the identities of the\ntwo PMIs said to be from the Land of Gora. The tracing is being carried\nout after a video of their confession went viral on Instagram social\nmedia.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYes, up to now we are tracing the individuals concerned. We have\nalso tried to mention the person who took the video but there has been\nno response,\u201d Ponco said.<\/p>\n<p>According to him, several accounts spreading the video have also not\nbeen able to provide definite information regarding the identities of\nthe two women.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSo we can\u2019t say for sure whether it\u2019s true or not. Whether the two\nare from NTB or not,\u201d Ponco emphasised.<\/p>\n<p>Coordination with KBRI and Kemenlu<\/p>\n<p>BP3MI NTB is currently coordinating with the Embassy of the Republic\nof Indonesia (KBRI) and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs to confirm the\nwhereabouts of the two PMIs.<\/p>\n<p>However, up to now, no valid information has been gathered.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cKBRI and Kemenlu are also still tracing. We are still in\ncommunication with KBRI and Kemenlu in Jakarta. If there is information,\nwe will follow up regarding their addresses,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>Although the identities have not been confirmed, Ponco expressed\nempathy for the condition experienced by the two women.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe are very empathetic. Hopefully they are alright,\u201d he\nstressed.<\/p>\n<p>Previously, two Indonesian migrant workers (PMI) were suspected of\nbeing victims of human trafficking crimes (TPPO) in Saudi Arabia. The\ntwo claimed they were sold for prostitution activities.<\/p>\n<p>From the confession video circulating on social media, they claimed\nto have to service up to 450 lecherous men in a month.<\/p>\n<p>The video was uploaded by the <span class=\"citation\" data-cites=\"bisikanneti\">@bisikanneti<\/span> account on Instagram on\nWednesday (29\/4\/2025) and went viral again.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSo in a month, I have to service 450 men. If I don\u2019t meet the\ntarget, I don\u2019t get paid,\u201d said the woman in a frightened tone, as seen\nby detikBali from the viral video on Monday (4\/5\/2026).<\/p>\n<p>In her confession, the victim mentioned leaving for Saudi Arabia\nafter being lured with a job by a field worker with initials N, a woman.\nUpon arriving in Saudi Arabia, the two met a woman with initials Z.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSo N lured us via WA for work in Saudi Arabia. But we met Z. There,\nwe were confined to service men. But we managed to escape while shopping\nat one of the malls,\u201d said the woman as in the video seen by\ndetikBali.<\/p>",
