Get a college degree, preferably in CS or engineering. It’s almost definitely cheaper for you to do that in Indonesia than in any other country you might be interested in, and having that credential helps you in visa and job applications. Once you have the degree, work for a while to build up more savings. How you do this is up to you, but you’ll need a lot more than $1000 to get yourself established in a developed country. Once you have the money, you will be eligible for many more visa programs than you are currently. One common “backdoor” route is to get a master’s degree using a student visa that allows you to work in the country for a period of time afterwards. The US OPT[1] program is the one I’m familiar with, but there similar systems in other countries. It’s much easier to get employers to sponsor you for visa programs if you’re already working in the country. Also, you should apply for the US Diversity Visa[2] program every year. It’s an extreme long shot, because there are so many more applicants than spots, but you never know.
