Abstract

Efforts to achieve the goals of Vision 2030 may be hampered as a result of the implementation of the moratorium policy on the placement of Indonesian migrant workers imposed by the Indonesian government. This research found that, to support the realization of the 2030 vision, the Saudi Arabian government was forced to agree to the conditions proposed by the Indonesian government to establish a mechanism for protecting Indonesian migrant workers through a one-channel placement system. The Indonesian government succeeded in using the moratorium policy as leverage to influence the Saudi Arabian government to fulfill their request to provide protection for Indonesian migrant workers. The Saudi Arabian government is forced to fulfill the Indonesian government's request, because Indonesian migrant worker services have become a favorite choice for the community, and if they are not fulfilled it will hamper activities, this could make it difficult to realize Vision 2030. This research also found that to ensure the availability of migrant worker services, the Saudi Arabian government has also carried out several initiatives such as reforming worker recruitment regulations and digitizing worker recruitment.
