Asians Migrate Globally Amid Economic Pulls and Crises
Asians are moving in larger numbers from villages to cities and abroad, seeking jobs in the Middle East, the United States, Europe, and beyond. The ILO notes about 3.2 million Asians worked in the Gulf 1981–1985, while 5 million Asians make up 2 percent of the U.S. population. Migration is driven by labor demand, demographics, and urbanization, with regimes relocating populations and refugees adding to flows.
