“…Assimilable at first blush to the push‐and‐pull models that mediate migration talk in Sabah's public sphere, kelebihang has been glossed in one English newspaper as “more income” and in one Malay‐language scholarly article as pendapatan yang lebih dari diperoleh di kampung , or “[an] income that [is] more than [that] earned in [their] village” ( Daily Express , 2015; see also Wan Shawaluddin, 2015). In a personal communication, one social scientist attached to Universiti Malaysia Sabah characterized the significance of ingin mencari kelebihang (want to find more income) in terms of its status as a social regularity, one revealing itself in the push‐and‐pull of reiterative turns of talk.…”

“…Marx's – as opposed to Li's – understanding of populational “surplus” is more readily assimilable to the case of Sabah, a place where so‐nominated “excess populations” are central not only to the state's industrial metabolism but also to the parasitic aspirations of its political operatives. Bugis migrants simultaneously constitute the “most dominant” (Wan Shawaluddin et al, 2015, 61) source of labor in the state's bustling palm oil industry, and they are a target population for irregular projects of enfranchisement (High Court of Sabah and Sarawak, 2001).…”

Positioned at the island interface of Malaysia, Indonesia, and the Philippines, the east Malaysian state of Sabah bears witness to some of the largest clandestine cross‐border flows across the globe. This article examines what a Royal Commission of Inquiry on Illegal Immigrants in Sabah has called “an insidious problem which has turned out to be an all‐consuming nightmare.” It highlights the situated (meta)semiotic work involved in determining and enforcing the state's seemingly indeterminate and unenforceable borders between citizens and suspected non‐citizens, while also showing how inquiries into migrant illegality are ultimately inquiries into “excess.” It demonstrates how experiences of and orientations to excess take expressive shape in migrants and Malaysians' fashions of speaking and forms of life. It concludes by considering how these transnational dynamics across a sprawling archipelagic region lend a provincializing angle of vision on American(ist) anthropology's own hemispheric parochialism.

“…Secara khusus, mayoritas mereka bekerja sebagai pekerja rumah tangga (domestic worker) dan penjaga orang tua/orang sakit (caregiver) (BP2MI, 2020). Jenis pekerjaan mayoritas PMI dan tempat tinggal mereka selama bekerja di luar negeri, misalnya di rumah pemberi kerja bagi pekerja rumah tangga, caregiver serta babysitter (Hidayat, 2017;Susilo, 2016), dan di hunian-hunian yang berlokasi di perkebunan (Wan Hassan et al, 2016), menyebabkan PMI rentan tertular Covid-19. Oleh karena itu, tidak mengherankan jika Pemerintah Indonesia sangat hati-hati dan selektif dalam menempatkan PMI pada masa pandemi Covid-19 ini.…”

The Coronavirus disease 2019 pandemic negatively impacts the Indonesian migrant workers since their host countries suffer from the effect of infectious diseases. A big number of Indonesian migrant workers lost their jobs which caused them unable to send money to their families at home country. This paper aims to discuss the impacts of Covid-19 on Indonesian migrant workers' welfare and their families at home country. This paper is based on analysing existing statistical data and reviewing existing literature and research publications. The results show that the direct impacts of Covid-19 on Indonesian migrant workers are layoffs for both permanent and temporary workers. Indonesian migrant workers who have been laid off have to go back to their home country. Some Indonesian migrant workers who are still working in host countries received decreasing income due to salary reduction and no additional income for their extra working hours. Such condition brings about negative impacts on Indonesian migrant workers' welfare and their families at home country, mainly because of the reduce of remittances, reaching 10.28 percent during the Covid-19 pandemic. Considering the condition of migrant workers' families who have experienced a decrease in remittances, they should be eligible for receiving any safety net from social security programs due to Covid-19 pandemic impact.
