Download or read book International Migration and Development in East Asia and the Pacific written by Ahmad Ahsan and published by World Bank Publications. This book was released on 2014-10-23 with total page 247 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The East Asia and Pacific region has an international emigrant population of over 21 million people, who remitted more than USD 90 billion to their home countries in 2010. The region also hosts more than 7 million migrant workers, mostly from other Asian countries. These migrant workers account for 20 percent or more of the labor force in economies such as Malaysia and Singapore and thus play a significant role in the economies of the labor-receiving countries. The aging of the population in many East Asian countries will create significant labor shortages leading to greater demand for migrant workers. For these reasons, international labor mobility is emerging as an important development issue in East Asia with important implications for the Bank’s mission of poverty reduction and supporting sustainable economic development in the region. In this context , this study analyzes the impact of migration on development of the region and how international migration should be managed in East Asia in a way that supports development goals while simultaneously protecting the rights of migrants. The study covers: trends in international migration in East Asia and overarching regional issues such as the links between macroeconomic management and remittances and the role of demographic trends in migration; the economic impact of migration and remittances on labor-sending countries and labor-receiving countries; the migration industry; and the policies and institutions that govern migration.

Download or read book Labour Mobility in the Asia Pacific Region written by Graeme Hugo and published by Institute of Southeast Asian Studies. This book was released on 2008 with total page 259 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Driven by demographic changes, and reinforced by intensifying globalization, international labour mobility has been on the rise in recent decades in the Asia-Pacific region. It seems that, after trade and investment, labour mobility constitutes the final frontier for regional integration among the Asia-Pacific economies. There is no doubt that labour movements are integral to regional economic integration and critical to the long-term health of the regional economies and business operations. In reality, however, such movements are much burdened with political and social problems in the labour origin economies as well as the labour destination economies, and yet many of these problems remain not just unaddressed by the relevant governments but not even well studied. The present volume seeks to fill this gap by offering synthesis papers stemming from the studies on international labour migration in twenty Asia-Pacific economies which were discussed at a joint PECC-ABAC conference held in Seoul, Korea, on 25-26 March 2008, organized by KOPEC. These papers examine the demographic transition, the associated pattern of international labour migration, the national policies associated with it as well as their implications for business and the issues they raise, and, finally, the implications of these analyses for cooperation among the APEC governments, for each of the four subregions in the Asia-Pacific, as well as for the whole region.
Download or read book Migration and Development written by Graeme Hugo and published by International Organization for Migration (IOM). This book was released on 2003 with total page 52 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report examines the effects of international migration on the economic and social development of countries involved, focusing on examples from the Asian region, although the lessons drawn are also applicable to other areas. Although much of the literature on the topic has tended to highlight the negative impacts on the development of origin countries, this study finds that the relationship between migration and development is a more complex one, and shows how several Asian countries have been able to use their diasporas to benefit development in countries of origin. The report considers the economic impact of remittances, looking at aggregate, regional and community levels as well as on household welfare. It also discusses the impact of migration on poverty, policies which encourage return migration, and makes recommendations for further research.
