As sovereign state does Indonesia has an effective policy to handle these issues? This research applies juridical normative approach using primary and secondary data, studying and evaluating such law principles and relevant laws. This research concludes that through Act No.6 Year 2011 on Imigration, Indonesia deals with ineffective and partial by putting illegal migrant as victim rather than smuggler.
