Entrepreneurship Education as a basis for independence for Indonesian migrant workers in Malaysia

Abstract

The problem that often occurs with Indonesian Migrant Workers is that Indonesian migrant workers are always faced with a lack of activities that can increase their capacity. The education currently being implemented by PMI is equivalent to education, in both Package B and Package C, some even have graduate degrees, but the activities that lead to activities to increase entrepreneurial capacity have not been carried out much. Therefore, online seminar/workshop-based entrepreneurship socialization and offline follow-up evaluations are important in equipping PMIs with the knowledge and preparation of the best assets they currently have. This activity aims to ensure that migrant workers in Malaysia can have useful marketing skills when starting their own businesses to increase their income while working in Malaysia. This activity is carried out twice a week online using the Zoom meeting application and reviewing product innovation results offline at the Indonesian Embassy Hall in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. The results of the activities have shown that PMI in Malaysia has and can understand well the implementation of entrepreneurial principles to support important business decision-making.
