conditions of the citizens of neighbouring countries.
They wanted to live righteously as other citizens.
This community does not want to be looked down
upon by neighbouring citizens. Such thing illustrates
how they have a proper dignity, which shows
potential in the form of self-esteem.
The other hand, the under par infrastructure,
poverty, poor education, weak mind-set and
awareness of parents to improve their children's
education, stand at the brink of Indonesian gate. On
the other hand, magnificent school buildings with
excellent provided facilities and infrastructure of the
neighbouring country create huge gaps. Computer
labs, internet, language lab, students’ training hall
stand tall and well in Malaysia. For this reason, and
all the unfavourable conditions, border community
could be the target of human trafficking syndicates
touting around. Due to the difficult economic life on
ones’ shoulder and a lot of promising works in front
of their eye, parents might be encouraged to employ
their children abroad to help the family economy.
