Many societies today expect that women will play their major role by caring for a home and family. The differences between men and women in a society are taught very early in childhood, and boys and girls grow up to be what men and women in that society are expected to be.
But the present economic system forces women and girls to try to find a jobs outside their homes. They try to earn their living to support their families. In rural areas, agriculture is so important that usually men and boys help their families by planting and taking care of crops. So do women and girls.
More Indonesian women workers try to find jobs in foreign countries. They are usually sent by non-governmental organizations. They work in Saudi Arabia and Malaysia, for instance, as housekeepers, housemaids, cooks, babysitters and nurses. Before being sent abroad, they are trained in Jakarta for several weeks
