Abstract

After-work migrants who have returned to their villages do not need to return to work abroad. They can work and manage the potential of superior natural resources in each village that has not been absorbed by local, national, regional or international markets. For this reason, it is necessary to identify the retired Indonesian migrant workers by means of research so that they can be followed up with the success of remittances from work abroad. This includes the identification of investments and business that is done by TKI after using remittance, identification of investment fields that are by the potential of natural resources in the area of origin of Indonesian migrant workers and identification of problems of full TKI in growing entrepreneurship based on local potential. This research is based on life path change theory, goal-directed behavior theory, outcome expectancy theory, and the process of entrepreneurial formation. The research design invlved the informants filling in biodata and questionnaires, formal discussions, and free and open interviews with 32 people by purposive random sampling. The findings of the research resulted in responses to being entrepreneurs, it was not easy, according to informants facing severe obstacles to growing into an entrepreneur, because government alignments in the form of policies, licensing and business services and training on efforts to grow entrepreneurs were very inadequate and implementation was still far from expectations. Entreprenuer as a planner and manager and agrees also needs first skill and communication skills in terms of creating/exploring business ideas and opportunities, but they state that they disagree if the business pursued later is a new business, meaning that someone else must pursue the business. So they agree more to say that the business that will be done is to develop existing businesses.
