Description

Explore the complex realities of labor migration in East and South-East Asia with this academic study from Routledge. While many workers move overseas seeking better economic gains and improved futures, these expectations are not always met. This book addresses a central question in migration studies: why do migrants choose to remain abroad even when their original aspirations are not realized? By providing a unified understanding of how migration decisions are rationalized, this work moves beyond simple economic models. It offers a deep look at the decision-making processes of individuals navigating life in foreign labor markets. The study is grounded in empirical evidence, focusing specifically on the lived experiences of Bangladeshi migrant workers in Hong Kong and Malaysia. This text is an essential resource for students and professionals in anthropology and sociology. It provides a clear lens through which to view the social and economic dynamics of migrant populations in Asia, offering insights into why people stay in migratory cycles despite significant challenges.
