Indonesians in Hong Kong : ウィキペディア英語版 | Indonesians in Hong Kong
Indonesians in Hong Kong, numbering 102,100,〔Media Indonesia Online 30 November 2006〕 form the second-largest ethnic minority group in the territory, behind Filipinos.〔US Dept. of State 2000: Section 5〕 most Indonesians coming to Hong Kong today are pribumi who arrive under limited-term contracts for employment as foreign domestic helpers. Indonesian migrant workers in Hong Kong comprise 2.4% of all overseas Indonesian workers.〔Hugo 2000: 5〕 == Employment ==
In 2006, it was estimated that 102,100 Indonesians worked in Hong Kong,〔 of whom between 80 and 90% are estimated to be women.〔Villalba 2005〕 This represents a growth of almost 250% from the 41,000 recorded six years earlier,〔 while during the same period, the number of domestic helpers from the Philippines declined. Some newspaper reports attributed this to the fact that Filipinas were "harder to manage",〔Pacific Business News 2004〕 and additionally to the better training of Indonesian domestic helpers. Employment agencies in Indonesia sending workers to Hong Kong typically provide at least three to six months of training in household work, including a basic course in Cantonese, whereas similar agencies in the Philippines provide only fourteen days of training. But agencies do not always provide adequate training. They also work together with agencies in Hong Kong to extract higher fees from Indonesians after they start working in Hong Kong. Part of this extra fee is the money that agencies pay to women in Indonesia to start the migration process.〔(Palmer, Wayne. 2010. Costly inducements. In Inside Indonesia 100. )〕 Indonesian domestic helpers in Hong Kong are represented by two unions, the Indonesian Migrant Workers Union (IMWU) and Coalition of Indonesian Migrant Workers' Organisations (KOTKIHO, ''Koalisi Organisasi Tenaga Kerja Indonesia Hong Kong'').〔IMWU 15 May 2005〕 According to organisations representing migrant workers, police intimidation of migrant workers is also a problem.〔 Underpayment of wages and employer abuse is also a problem; Indonesian workers are widely paid as little as HK$1800 to HK$2000 per month.〔〔(ATKI Primer on Illegal Salary Deductions to Indonesian Migrant Workers (IMWs) In Hong Kong )〕 During the May 1998 riots in Jakarta, the Hong Kong government threatened to expel Indonesian labourers in Hong Kong in response to the Indonesian government's inaction on crimes committed against ethnic Chinese women; however, in the end, they did not act on this threat.〔HRW 1998: (Introduction )〕
