Merits of RI labor abroad
Merits of RI labor abroad
From Merdeka
It is very wrong for strong and healthy people to make a living by begging and relying on other people's compassion.
There are sayings like "no pain, no gain" and "nothing sought, nothing found". Other expressions are: "many hands make a light load" and "two heads are better than one".
Some introspection would certainly reduce the number of 800 million people in the world in the need of food.
Only a few people are left who uphold ethical values. Life gives us much concern because many people are greedy, wasteful, evil and arrogant.
Seeking a livelihood these days is a difficult task. Therefore, let us hope that the distinction between legal and illegal Indonesian workers is only temporary in nature. Indonesian workers abroad have great merit because they yield foreign exchanges for our country, and leave their families to look for a living abroad, reducing the number of poor people here at home.
