<![CDATA[Indonesia is one of the countries that sends many migrant workers abroad, migrant workers who in Indonesia are also called TKI (Tenaga Kerja Indonesia). The problems experienced by Indonesian migrant workers abroad are a form of human rights violations that are a form of modern slavery. Slavery is often associated with human trafficking, because it leads to physical or sexual exploitation for the benefit of an individual or group. In the case of Kartika Puspitasari, an Indonesian migrant worker who was beaten and burned by her former employer in Hong Kong finally managed to get compensation of more than $ 110,000 or equivalent to Rp1.66 billion. The torture that befell the 40-year-old migrant worker made headlines a decade ago. The case sparked calls from related parties to provide better protection for migrant workers . Kartika’s employer was sentenced and imprisoned in 2013. By reviewing the role of the Indonesian government in the case experienced by Kartika Puspitasari, we can see that the government has an important responsibility to protect the rights of Indonesian migrant workers who are victims of sexual harassment in the workplace, in accordance with the provisions contained in ILO Convention No. 190/2019.]]>
