Indonesians rescued from trafficking attempt to Malaysia
The group, comprising 18 men and eight women, was rescued in a raid last Friday by officers from the Criminal Investigation Department in Deli Serdang. 19 May 2025 02:49pm Vehicles stuck in traffic during the evening rush hour in Jakarta's business centre on Nov 13, 2024, while most workers reside on the outskirts of the city. - (Photo by BAY ISMOYO / AFP) JAKARTA - Police in Indonesia's North Sumatra province have foiled an attempt to traffic 26 undocumented workers to Malaysia and arrested three suspected traffickers, authorities said. The group, comprising 18 men and eight women, was rescued in a raid last Friday by officers from the Criminal Investigation Department (Bareskrim) in Deli Serdang. "The three suspects will be detained for the next 20 days," the department's director Commissioner Sumaryono said in a statement. Preliminary investigations revealed the workers had been promised employment as domestic helpers, factory workers and plantation labourers, with a promised monthly wage of RM1,500 (around 5.7 million rupiah). The migrants hailed from several provinces, including 12 from East Nusa Tenggara, seven from Aceh, two each from West Nusa Tenggara and North Sumatra, and one each from Central Java, East Java and Riau. "Each of them paid five million rupiah to the syndicate. The plan was to smuggle them to Malaysia by barge," Sumaryono said. Before their planned departure, the group had been temporarily housed in Tumpatan village, Batang Kuis sub-district, after arriving from their home regions. The 26 individuals have since been handed over to the North Sumatra branch of the Indonesian Migrant Worker Protection Agency (BP3MI). The three suspects are being investigated under Indonesia's 2007 anti-human trafficking law and the 2017 law on migrant worker protection, and face up to 10 years in prison if convicted. - BERNAMA More Like This

'Jumbo': the animated Indonesian film smashing records
An Indonesian animated movie is smashing regional box-office records and could be set for wider success as it prepares to open beyond the Southeast Asian archipelago's silver screens. "Jumbo" -- a film based on the adventures of main character Don, a large orphaned Indonesian boy facing bullying at school -- last month became the highest-grossing Southeast Asian animated film, raking in more than $8 million. Released at the end of March to coincide with the Eid holidays after the Islamic fasting month of Ramadan, the movie has hit eight million ticket sales, the third highest in Indonesian cinema history, according to Film Indonesia. The film explores "what we've lost in life and the strength we need to overcome it", director Ryan Adriandhy Halim told AFP. AFP | BAY ISMOYO "We hope to encourage a change, it is for people to treat (each other) more kindly and we want 'Jumbo' to be a reminder that everyone deserves respect, no matter what is your background, whatever age group you are." In the film, Don has a storybook filled with magical tales -- including a meeting with a fairy who wants him to help her reconnect with her family. "This film is for us, for our children, and for the child within us," Ryan said. For weeks after its release, 'Jumbo' kept theatres packed across Indonesia. AFP | BAY ISMOYO The movie -- which began production five years ago and called on the help of 400 local creators -- surpassed the regional record set by Malaysia's "Mechamato Movie" in 2022. Its success has caught many in the Indonesian film industry by surprise. "I predicted the film would be popular -- but not this much," said Petrus Kristianto Prayitno Santoso, film programming supervisor for operator Flix Cinema. - 'Stepping stone' - However, the film's wider appeal will be tested when it opens in more than 17 countries in June, including Malaysia, Singapore, Turkey and Mongolia, said Anggia Kharisma, chief content officer at Visinema Studios, the film's production house. AFP | BAY ISMOYO The company says other release dates are still in discussion, meaning it could be set for a global rollout. In an industry flooded with Hollywood blockbusters and local horror movies, "Jumbo" has stood out. "It's been a long time since we've had an Indonesian family film," said Adi, 38, who watched the movie with his wife Ria and their two young children. But he added that "in Southeast Asia, it will work because the culture is similar, but I'm not sure about regions beyond that". AFP | BAY ISMOYO The film has given hope to Indonesian audiences that their local productions could see more global success. Cinemagoer Dika, 27, said she believes "the film could rival Disney productions". Ryan himself has more modest ambitions, hoping simply that his debut feature will become "a stepping stone and a benchmark for Indonesian animation" in the future. bpt/jfx/fec By Baptiste Anse
