DataRepublican (small r) @DataRepublican - None of these agreements — the IOM membership, the Global Compact signature, the JICA 100,000-worker plan — were ever put to a public vote.
They were negotiated between government agencies and international bodies.

DataRepublican (small r) @DataRepublican - There's also JICA, Japan's foreign aid agency. American equivalent is USAID.
JICA contracted the ILO to build migrant worker protection infrastructure in Cambodia, Indonesia, and Vietnam.
JICA also helped plan for 100,000 Indonesian workers to come to Japan over five years.
Japan's own aid agency is building the supply-side pipeline.
