Abstract: Malaysia is among the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) countries that have the highest number of Indonesian labour force. The inclusion of Indonesian work force in Malaysia is one of the programs by the Indonesian government that aims in helping these workers to gain better jobs and at the same time improve the economy of the country. Here, most of the Indonesian work force in Malaysia work in domestic sectors (such as construction, plantation) and most of them lack of industry-ready skilled workers in spite performance that are in line with the scope of the task despite of having work experiences. Besides that, it is necessary in ensuring that the Indonesian labour force is industry-ready and competitive in order to o meet the skill sets required by the ASEAN country. This paper discussed the relationship between the Indonesian construction sector work force’s experience and level of skills in Malaysia. Hence, it is recommended that each Indonesian labour have at least some experiences before entering the field of work, especially abroad.
