In recent years, the Indonesian government has increased efforts to harness the economic, political, and social potential of its diaspora. A recent high-profile event was the fourth annual Congress of Indonesian Diasporas that took place in Jakarta on 1 July 2017. Opened by former U.S. President Barack Obama, the event was intended to draw the Indonesian public's attention towards the contributions of Indonesian diaspora communities abroad. Current estimates put the number of overseas Indonesians at up to 8 million people worldwide. Members of the Indonesian diaspora are lobbying for legislative amendments, including dual citizenship, parliamentary representation, property ownership rights, and constitutional recognition. There are plans to set up a separate governmental office for diaspora affairs. Presidential Regulation Number 76/2017 also put into law the "Diaspora Card" that will provide Indonesians abroad with special entitlements such as long-term visas and property ownership rights. The Indonesian government needs to take the potential of its diaspora seriously in order to harness their enormous capital and skills contribution.

Divided thematically into six broad sections, the chapters in this handbook critically discuss and debate some of the pertinent issues of Asian transnationalism: Contextualizing Asian Transnationalism Transnationalism and Socio-Cultural Identities Transnationalism, Education and Infrastructure Transnationalism, Gender and Development Transnationalism and Dynamics of Diasporic Politics Transnationalism, Art and Media The Routledge Handbook of Asian Transnationalism will be an invaluable resource for academics, researchers and students interested in the study of international migration, Asian diaspora and transnationalism.

From colonial times on Java through to the present day, large numbers of Javanese have left their homes to settle in other parts of Indonesia or much further afield. Frequently this dispersion was forced, often with traumatic results. Today, Javanese communities continue to exist as near to home as Kalimantan and as far away as Suriname and the Netherlands. Meanwhile, migrant workers from Java continue to travel abroad, finding short-term employment in places like Malaysia and the Middle East. This volume traces the different ways in which Javanese migrants and migrant communities are connected in their host society and with Java as a real or imagined authoritative source of norms, values and loyalties. It underlines the importance of diaspora as a process in order to understand the evolving notions of a Javanese homeland across time and space. Even though Java as the point of departure links the different contributions, their focus is more on the process of migration and the experiences of Javanese migrants in the countries of destination. In so doing, they examine historical developments and geographical similarities and differences in the migrants' social and political positions, mechanisms of authority, and social relations with other migrants. Clearly, the labour element dominates the Indonesian overseas experience. But the volume also elucidates how ethnicity, class, gender, religion and hierarchy have shaped and still inform the dynamics of diasporic communities. Many of the chapters pay particular attention to gender as, since the 1960s, women for the first time have formed the majority of international migrants, domestic work being the largest category of transnational work. As a result, important aspects of the migration experience are seen in new ways via the lens of women's experiences.

Indian Diaspora in the United States takes a new perspective on the topic of brain drain, departing from the traditional literature to include discussions on brain gain and brain circulation using Indian migration to the United States as a case study. Sahay acknowledges that host country policies create the necessary conditions for brain drain to take place, but argues that source countries may also benefit from out-migration of their workers and students. These benefits are measured as remittances, investments, and savings associated with return, and social networking that links expatriates with their country of origin. Through success and visibility in host societies, diaspora workers further influence economic and political benefits for their home countries. This type of brain gain becomes an element of soft power for the source country in the long term. Indian Diaspora in the United States is a ground-breaking work that intersects economic and political issues to the dimension of migration and the concerns over brain drain. With its rigorous, connectionist approach, this book is a valuable contribution to the fields of diaspora, labor, globalization, and Indian studies.

Peran diaspora dalam pembangunan Indonesia tentu sangat diharapkan terlebih tidak sedikit profesional dan akademisi Indonesia yang mumpuni dan berkiprah di luar negeri di mana salah satunya sebagai perencana kota di Belanda. Pengaruh Belanda dalam tata ruang dan pembangunan kota di Indonesia juga sangatlah besar. Para cendekia Indonesia di Belanda yang berlatar belakang arsitektur, perencana dan pembangunan sosial, perencana perkotaan, dan sejumlah profesional lainnya yang telah lama bekerja dalam bidang perkotaan di Belanda, juga telah membentuk Task Force Liveable Cities di bawah naungan Indonesian Diaspora Network (IDN). Organisasi ini dibentuk atas dasar keinginan untuk membangun Indonesia melalui perencanaan dan pembangunan kota yang lebih baik dan layak huni bagi masyarakat Indonesia. Melalui studi multidisiplin yang dilakukan oleh antropolog, pengkaji kebijakan Eropa, perencana perkotaan, sosiolog, dan sejarawan, buku ini ditulis untuk melihat peran diaspora di Belanda yang bergerak di sektor perencanaan dan pembangunan perkotaan dalam pembangunan Indonesia. Seiring berjalannya waktu, gugus tugas ini sudah menghasilkan beberapa proyek perencanaan pembangunan. Namun, strategi dan optimalisasi potensi diaspora dalam bidang kota masih terlepas dan belum banyak dipertimbangkan dalam pengambilan kebijakan perencanaan pembangunan kota-kota di Indonesia, khususnya kota kecil dan menengah. Oleh karena itu, buku ini diharapkan juga dapat menambah inspirasi baru untuk pemerintah daerah, pengambil keputusan, perencana kota, dan masyarakat luas terkait potensi para diaspora untuk pembangunan kota-kota di Indonesia.

After 3 years of historic reforms, Myanmar has entered a pivotal stage in its socioeconomic development. Natural, cultural, and demographic advantages are positioning the country for long-term success, but many challenges and potential pitfalls lie ahead. This publication examines how to leverage the opportunities and offers solutions to the challenges. For Myanmar to achieve its economic transition, considerable investments will have to be made in infrastructure and developing human capital, and progress made on building institutional capacity, a regulatory environment for the private sector to flourish, and a modern finance sector. In all reform efforts, the government should embrace good governance, and strive for inclusive, environmentally sustainable, and regionally connected growth. Ensuring that the benefits of growth are shared broadly and regionally balanced stands out in a crowded development agenda.
