Singapore In Bound Migration Policy

[fivestars]

Human migration denotes any movement (physical or psychological) by humans from one district to another, sometimes over long distances or in large groups.

The movement of populations in modern times has continued under the form of both voluntary migration within one's region, country, or beyond, and involuntary migration (which includes the slave trade, trafficking in human beings and ethnic cleansing). People who migrate are called migrants, or, more specifically, emigrants, immigrants or settlers, depending on historical setting, circumstances and perspective.

The pressures of human migrations, whether as outright conquest or by slow cultural infiltration and resettlement, have affected the grand epochs in history (e.g. the Decline of the Roman Empire); under the form of colonization, migration has transformed the world (e.g. the prehistoric and historic settlements of Australia and the Americas). Population genetics studied in traditionally settled modern populations have opened a window into the historical patterns of migrations, a technique pioneered by Luigi Luca Cavalli-Sforza.

Forced migration (see population transfer) has been a means of social control under authoritarian regimes, yet free initiative migration is a powerful factor in social adjustment (e.g. the growth of urban populations).

Different types of migration include:

• Daily human commuting.
• Seasonal human migration is mainly related to agriculture.
• Permanent migration, for the purposes of permanent or long-term stays.
• Local
• Regional
• Rural to Urban, more common in developing countries as industrialization takes effect (urbanization)
• Urban to Rural, more common in developed countries due to a higher cost of urban living (suburbanization)
• International migration

Migration like any other process shapes many fields of life, having both advantages and disadvantages.

Effects of migrations are:

• changes in population distribution
• demographic consequences: since migration is selective of particular age groups, migrants are mostly young and in productive age. It can cause a demographic crisis – population ageing, what in turn can be followed by economic problems (shrinking group of economically active population has to finance extending group of inactive population).
• economic results, which are of the greatest importance for the development of the countries.
• decreases in global poverty

Migration has had a significant effect on world geography.

• It has contributed to the evolution and development of separate cultures.
• It has contributed to the diffusion of cultures by interchange and communication.
• It has contributed to the complex mix of people and cultures found in different regions of the world today

To be a capital Hub for Malaysian Union, Southeast Asia, East Asia and Asia Pacific, I believed Singaporean will agree but Drivers, Securities, Administration, Defend, Research, Office Hours Career and so on had to reserve for Singaporean. Migration New Citizen are very rich that able to purchase all high end products in Singapore. Opposition Party shall form a government that reserve low end products, low end services and public housing. The coming education, foods, health, aging problem, fuel, electricity, water and so on will make the poor unable to pay and pay.

Singapore Opposition Party shall help to reduce pay and pay high cost to Singaporean and reserve jobs for Singaporean. Migrate New Citizen record is worst than ex-offender and able to work. Why ex-offender citizen shall down grade to be third class citizen and lower grade than new migrate citizen and residents who able to perform any duties in Singapore.

New Migrate can change NRIC, Passport, Criminal record, education, working history, sickness and so on easily in original and original country that they come from.

SINGAPORE: Minister Mentor Lee Kuan Yew has highlighted two challenges for Singapore to undertake in order to do well in the next five to ten years.

Speaking on Thursday at the annual National Day Dinner at his Tanjong Pagar constituency, the minister mentor said Singapore can reach a new level of development, but difficulties will crop up along the way.

To resolve them, the nation must always face them squarely and work together.

The first challenge is integrating new citizens and permanent residents (PRs) with the local population. The speed of this process depends on the openness of Singaporeans who are born and raised here, and the willingness of new citizens to adapt and be part of the Singapore society.

Mr Lee explained that without immigration, the ageing problem will be too heavy a burden for the young. Immigrants who can be integrated without upsetting the racial balance are in Singapore's interest.

He said: "We need immigrants to make up for the children we are not having. That's a very hard fact of life. Between age 25 and 40, more than 30 per cent are unmarried – that means single and childless.

"Those who marry have an average of 1.28 children – replacement is 2.1. If we do not have educated Malaysians, China Chinese and India Indians and others from the region, our economy will decline and our labour force will shrink."

Mr Lee, however, assured Singaporeans that the government is conscious of protecting the interests of citizens. In fact, there is a clear distinction between citizens and PRs in terms of HDB housing, hospital charges, education fees and the Resilience Package.

On the other hand, he added that Singapore cannot make the immigration process so onerous that no one comes. For example, it cannot insist that PRs or new citizens be fluent in English when even some existing citizens are not.

Mr Lee's second challenge is to encourage Chinese Singaporeans to speak more Mandarin and to take up scholarships to study in China's top universities.

He said Singapore needs 200 to 300 A-level students to be proficient in both languages and cultures to manage the work with China – both government-to-government and in the private sector.

He added: "This does not mean we are displacing English as our working and common language – our first language. English will remain the master language for all Singaporeans.

"Our new immigrants know that in Singapore, without an adequate command of English, they cannot go far. The command of English is the decisive factor for the career path and promotion prospects of all Singaporeans."

As for the resident population, Mr Lee said the government is conscious of the need to keep the character and values of the Singapore society, so it is carefully controlling the inflow of PRs and new citizens to maintain this balance.
