Following
a deportation of an Indonesian worker from Incheon Airport due to suffering
tuberculosis, another Indonesian migrant worker from Indramayu, SU, was also
deported.
When SU
arrived at Incheon Airport on April 19, 2016, the 24-year old man had to be
deported when he was found suffering from TB during a medical checkup. SU’s
situation added to the long list of deported Indonesians due to health reasons
and reflected collusion practices among clinics and migrant workers.
“Indonesia
is one of the countries with the most deported workers,” said an airport staff
as quoted from a press release issued by the Indonesian Embassy in Seoul on
Friday, 22 April 2016.
Ambassador
John said that he had sent a complaint letter to the government, however the
deportation incident recurred that it would harm the reputation of Indonesian
workers in general.
“The
practice of providing fake certificates cannot be justified under any reasons.
Indonesia is a great country that must show discipline before other countries,”
John added in a furious tone.
SU was
reportedly aware of his disease before he went to South Korea. He also admitted
that he had an agreement with the clinic releasing the clinic from any
responsibilities, should any unfavorable situations occur.
