TOKER.TOP – Recently, the hashtag #EscapeFirst has dominated social media discussions, reflecting the growing frustration among Indonesians regarding economic challenges, political instability, and uncertain career prospects at home.

Many young professionals are choosing to seek opportunities abroad to improve their quality of life, enhance their skills, or simply "escape" local pressures. 

But how can you legally and safely achieve the dream of working overseas? Here’s a complete guide based on this trending phenomenon.

1. WHV Australia, Work and Travel

The Working-Holiday Visa (WHV) in Australia allows Indonesians aged 18–30 to work while exploring the country for up to one year. Key requirements include obtaining a WHV Support Letter from Indonesia’s Immigration Office and demonstrating English proficiency. 

Salaries in the agriculture or hospitality sector can reach IDR 150,000 per hour, with insurance and accommodation benefits included.

2. Ausbildung Germany, Vocational School + Paid Internship

The Ausbildung program combines 70% hands-on training at a German company with 30% theoretical study at a vocational school. Applicants must have graduated from high school and possess at least B1-level German proficiency. After completing the 2.5–3 year program, graduates have a strong chance of securing permanent employment as skilled professionals in Germany.

3. Tokutei Ginou Japan, Specified Skilled Worker Visa

This program is divided into two categories:

  • Category 1 for workers with basic experience in fields like healthcare, transportation, or forestry.

  • Category 2, for skilled workers in the same industries. Applicants must pass a skills and Japanese language proficiency test to qualify.

4. Au Pair, Live and Work with a Host Family

This program allows young people to live abroad while providing childcare for a host family. Requirements include a formal contract, basic language skills, and a special visa. Countries like the U.S. and several European nations are popular destinations for Au Pair programs.

5. Official Government Job Portals, Karirhub & SISKOP2MI

The Ministry of Manpower (Kemnaker) provides Karirhub, a platform for job openings in Malaysia, Singapore, and Taiwan. Meanwhile, SISKOP2MI by BP2MI helps prospective migrant workers with legal procedures, including pre-departure orientation.

Conclusion

While working abroad offers higher salaries and global experience, the #EscapeFirst trend also raises concerns about brain drain, as Indonesia risks losing its skilled workforce. This highlights the need for the government to create high-quality job opportunities so that young professionals don't feel compelled to leave.

SpaceX Crew-10 Arrives to Bring Home NASA Astronauts After Extended ISS Stay

After an unexpected nine-month stay aboard the ISS, astronauts Wilmore and Williams are finally preparing to return home, thanks to the arrival of SpaceX's Crew-10 mission. TOKER.TOP - NASA astronauts Barry "Butch" Wilmore and Sunita "Suni" Williams are poised to conclude an unexpectedly prolonged mission aboard the International Space Station (ISS), spanning over nine months—a significant extension from their initially planned eight-day stay. This unforeseen prolongation resulted from technical complications encountered with Boeing's Starliner spacecraft, which was originally designated for their return journey. The Starliner experienced helium leaks and thruster malfunctions during its mission, leading NASA to opt for an uncrewed return of the spacecraft to ensure astronaut safety. To facilitate their return, SpaceX's Crew-10 mission successfully launched from NASA's Kennedy Space Center in Florida and docked with the ISS on March 16, 2025. The C...
