This paper aims to analyze the issue of Indonesia's migrant domestic workers within the framework of ASEAN Community beyond 2015. With the government's plan to stop the sending of Indonesia's migrant domestic worker abroad in 2017, one of possible direct effects would be the rise of unemployment rate. On other hand, one of the consequences of the integrated ASEAN Economic Community is the free movement of people, commodities and services between ASEAN member countries. Higher level of people's flow will increase connectivity as well competition. Using a qualitative approach of method, this paper elaborates the discourse of the Indonesia's migrant domestic workers, using the societal and economic security perspective as analytical framework.

The findings in this article defy the common assumption that the free market, including the formation of the ASEAN Economic Community (AEC) in Southeast Asia, is correlated with the creation of a spillover and complex interdependency, reducing conflicts between countries in the region. This finding could well contribute as a theory in the academic sphere and as policies in the practical world. The author uses a theoretical framework of structural realism to explain the potential conflict between countries of the Southeast Asian region. There are four potential conflict situations among countries in the implementation of AEC: firstly, the structure of economic disparity. This situation would construct an identity of in-group – out-group or “us” versus “them” in the context of who gains and loses in the AEC. Secondly, similarity of natural resources. This fact led the Southeast Asian countries to compete and create standardization wherein each party is in hostile competition to claim valid findings and arguments associated with efforts to reduce or stop the flow of imports into their respective countries. Thirdly, competition among businesses, in which AEC constructed free market could potentially provoke the emergence of regional trading cartel. Fourthly, the structure of military power. Historical records show that any economic growth occurring in a country will be accompanied by the growth of its military budget.

This chapter examines how curated storytelling in legislative advocacy campaigns redirected migrant domestic workers away from oppositional strategies. During the campaign for a Domestic Workers Bill of Rights in New York State, storytelling at the legislature and in the media helped to draw mainstream attention to the plight of domestic workers but also truncated larger political possibilities. Domestic worker stories were publicly disseminated through limiting media tropes, they were reframed using hegemonic myths in legislative debates, and they were couched in the language of Hollywood narratives. These stories were severed from the root causes of injustice and from strategies to address these causes. Over the course of the Bill of Rights campaign, the heavy involvement of advocacy networks and foundations in shaping the strategies and narratives employed by the groups ultimately narrowed the goals of the movement and resulted in limited changes for migrant domestic workers.

The human resources capacity of Bali tourism is abundant, but in its management is still very far behind with neighboring countries such as Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand, Philippines, and other countries. This is due to the level of education that is still at the level of standards and facilities that are inadequate, resulting in a standard quality of tourism workforce, increased unemployment, decreased productivity, and less competitiveness in the face of competition among tourism workers in the ASEAN region and internationally. Indonesia with the other nine ASEAN member countries have signed the blueprint declaration of the ASEAN Economic Community to initiate an economic integration step. This makes Bali must strive to improve the quality of tourism human resources as well as enhance the competitiveness of tourism workforce in order to survive in the era of ASEAN free trade and globalization of the international labor market. Bali, in particular, should be able to focus and care about the problem of tourism work and immediately clean up to create a conducive climate to accelerate the movement of economic growth through tourism human resources. This can be done by improving education, improving health, conducting training and developing tourism workforce, providing adequate facilities, improving the labor structure, will encourage the quality of Bali tourism workforce to improve. If a country has the competitiveness and is able to compete in the regional and global arena then it can be assured that the tourism worker is able to achieve standardization and have a good reputation and will certainly increase the national tourism human resource index.

AbstractASEAN member countries recently reiterated and renewed their commitment to creating the ASEAN Economic Community. Tax has a role to play in facilitating the creation of the AEC and ASEAN member countries have committed to completing the intra-ASEAN network of bilateral tax treaties in pursuit of this goal. This paper suggests that instead of continuing with the monumental task of agreeing individual bilateral tax treaties, ASEAN member countries should learn from the experience of other regional blocs and conclude a multilateral tax treaty. The conclusion of a multilateral tax treaty would address the general problems associated with bilateral tax treaties, strengthen ASEAN's presence in international tax relations and symbolise ASEAN's commitment to the creation of the AEC.
