Although large-scale migration has been a long history of human movement since the emergence of countries around 6,000 years ago, the issue of migration is still a very interesting topic. The most recent example of a border problem due to migration is President Trumps plan to build a border wall. Talks about migration are also very closely related to government policies at international, regional and national levels. The demand to understand the issue of migration for decision makers is driven by political, economic and social pressures in line with the increasing phenomenon of migration itself. This paper aims to see the impact caused by modern and contemporary migration events in Indonesia. The development of world politics which caused conflict and war in several countries gave rise to a wave of refugees as a new form of migration. The case of Indonesia illustrates that this country is a transit country from the invasion of refugees from Syria, Afghanistan and Myanmar, as a new phase of people moving space for political reasons. By looking at the phenomena of migration that occur, it is expected to be able to add scientific insight to the study of transnational migration and border studies with the discovery of symptoms, forms and characters of modern migration and its impact on the countries concerned.
