description One of the most important issues concerning women empowerment is women prosperity improvement through the improvement of women’s roles in work places.Becoming migrant workers is one of the choices that women have for improving their economic role. Facts show that the improvement of women’s economic role does not automatically improve their value.

This research is a qualitative analysis of cases concerning women migrant workers employing an expos de facto method.The implication of this research is the needs for an international convention among senders and receivers of women migrant workers in order to respond the implementation of women migrant workers empowerment.
