| dc.description.abstract | Indonesian women transnational migrant workers (IWTMW) have been experienced by dynamic
incidents. Strong motivation to improve family welfare compensated by physical, economic, and
social discrimination appear in the multilateral issue. An important factor that also needs to pay
attention to is the religious background of the migrant which does not allow the wife to stay away
from her husband.
This study aims to develop a bounded rationality model of Indonesian female migrant workers as a
decision making on international migration. Using a qualitative research method of empirical
phenomenological paradigm this research has been conducted. Triangulation uses to analyze the
information. Raw data were collected throughout the in-depth interview with 17 informants who
did become domestic migrant workers, alumni. The information is then crossed check to the
religious leaders, and then finally to the authorized government.
The bounded model is initiated from strong motivation, Islamic belief, and social capital. Limited
networking narrows the decision consideration. On the other hand, religiosity motivates the success
must be fought for even if you must work away from family. However, once she works away from
family, must frequently develop high-quality communication. | en_US |
