Business Uncertain from Muhaimin

Today, 30 November 2011, is the expired day of Binamandiri’s license and so 560s other Indonesian employment agencies. Until 04.00 o’clock this afternoon there isn’t any confirmation from Directorate General of Manpower Development and Placement (Binapenta) Indonesian Ministry of Manpower and Transmigration regarding the issued of the extension license for 560 Indonesian Employment Agencies (IEA).
It has been 7 months since Binamandiri submitted the extension license application to Binapenta as it was instructed to all IEA with formal letter to submit the application before end of April 2011 and all documents application must be completed before end of June 2011.
Binapenta conducted physical evaluation and audit visit based on the submitted documents to each of the IEA from September to October 2011.
So it has been two months since the visit, but no news or information about the new license being issued. For business people, certainly it just shows how poor the bureaucracy inside Binapenta despite the reform bureaucracy campaign led by vice president. Binapenta just add more uncertainty to Manpower Business in Indonesia where nowadays Manpower business is quite in mess and saturated as the government never takes this business seriously to be handled despite 60 trilliun remittance received by this great nation from Indonesian workers overseas.
Rumors said that Binapenta would like to increase the guarantee deposit of IEA from 500 million rupiah to 5 billion rupiah,  in order to eliminate hit and run businessman. If the measurement really applied, Indonesian Government shows its ignorance and selfishness. There is no time for IEA to think over, the options are only pay 5 billions or out of the game.
Binapenta should be prepared and informed towards IEA with enough time so that IEA could consider whether it is feasible to extend their license. It should be announce one to two years before, the license is expired.
5 billions Rupiah is considered a lot of money just only to be as a guarantee money without any chances to be invested. It is more profitable to use 5 billions Rupiah for investment and gain more profit than 4-5% a month from Bank interest else Indonesia Government currently only guarantee 2 billions for each saving or deposit. It seems Binapenta hasn't think long term if economy crisis hits Indonesia again such 1997 and banking system has to be liquidate, who will cover for the rest of 3 billions Rupiah ? Will Binapenta or Ministry office cover and guarantee it ?

Anyway, it still a hot rumors although some national TVs already informed it on their running text, but one thing is certain, that tomorrow 1 December 2011, 560s Indonesia Employment Agency including Binamandiri, will have no legal document to conduct its business, and the cloud seems very tight to know when there is a certainty from Government.
