Abstract

This study analyzes the Economic Benefits and Human Resources Development (HRD) in Trade Between Indonesia and Taiwan. Based on the calculation of Inter-Regional Input-Output (IRIO), Indonesia’s exports to Taiwan are mostly dominated by products that enter into intermediate inputs rather than final product goods, so that added value is needed, then Indonesian exports can be further improved. The qualitative descriptive analysis suggest that: (1) Indonesian Workers (TKI) working overseas including in Taiwan are dominated by workers with low or middle school (elementary, junior high and high school) level of 99%, (2) difficult to classify job detail data from migrant workers who work abroad especially in Taiwan to be associated with trade in services especially mode 4 that is movement of natural person, (3) need to increase the quality of human resources for TKI who will leave or TKI have been in destination country especially in Taiwan on an ongoing basis.
