Motivations of Migrants from Singapore to Australia

Subtitle :

Abstract :
This study examines how the decision to emigrate was made and what factors were taken into account, including emmigrants' connections with Singapore and intentions to visit in future. The respondents' material and employment conditions in Singapore are compared with their expectations in these areas in Australia, and their views about the best and worst aspects of living in Singapore and Australia are reported and contrasted. Finally, two popular theories of migration are considered, as are policy options related to the issue of emigration.
