Abstract

The case of human trafficking in the fishing industry has not been comprehensively identified,
and there are no adequate legal instruments, so that the workers on fishing vessels are vulnerable
to slavery. The case of human trafficking and slavery in Benjina is the largest case in the fishing
industry in the 21st century. The Government of Indonesia seeks to cooperate with IOM to tackle
the case so that it can be expected that there will be no more human trafficking and slavery
practices in the Indonesian fishing industry. This research aims to analyze the cooperation
between the Government of Indonesia and IOM in dealing with human trafficking and slavery in
Benjina, by first describing the situation and conditions of human trafficking and slavery that
occur in Benjina, the factors that had influenced the victims in the recruitment process, IOM's
role in helping the victims, up to the obstacles of the cooperation between the Government of
Indonesia and IOM in handling the case. This thesis uses qualitative research methods with
explanatory research types and analyzed by collecting data from books, annual reports of
government agencies and IOM, and mass media. An explanation of the cooperation between the
Government of Indonesia and IOM uses the theory of liberalism. This research concludes that
despite there are some obstacle factors, there are also some factors that faciltate the cooperation
between the Government of Indonesia and IOM in handling human trafficking and slavery in PT.
