Abstract

The large number of unemployed, the limited employment opportunities, the low wages in the village, and the low skills possessed by most workers have caused them to work abroad. The purpose of this study is to describe the role of remittances in improving children's education. The method used in this research is descriptive qualitative research. The data is sourced from secondary data available on-line at official sites owned by government agencies so that their validity and reliability are guaranteed. The study was conducted in Besuki District, Tulungagung Regency, East Java Province, Indonesia. Based on the results of research and discussion can be concluded as follows. First, the remittances sent by migrant workers to their families in the village are numerous. The majority of remittances are used to build houses, buy motor vehicles and cars, buy communication devices such as sophisticated mobile phones, household furniture, fields and rice fields. Second, the allocation of remittances for investment in the form of immovable objects and investment in human resources (children's education), has not been a priority in spending on remittances.
