The President Director of PT Megahbuana Citra Masindo stated that the fleeing of several of the Indonesian work force living in a shelter in Bojong Rawa Lambu, Bekasi was caused by their desire to meet with their families and by their impatience in waiting for the departure process. There have been 2 attempts made by the workers to flee this year. The total number was fifteen people. The number of the recent flee of workers was six. According to the agreement, the workers are obliged to stay for training for three months. After that, they they will be sent abroad. If in three months they are not sent abroad, they may choose to leave the training.
