The Impacts of Structural Change on Apec Labor Markets and Their Implications for International Labor Migration
This study examines the impacts of structural change on the labor markets of APEC member economies and explores the implications of these changes for international labor mobility within the region. All APEC economies have experienced significant structural changes during the process of development. The impacts of these changes are explored through an analysis of the changes over the period 1980 to 1997 in output and employment by industry and occ…
International Trade in Higher Education Services in the Asia Pacific Region: Trends and Issues
The expansion of trade and investment in the global economy since the 1980s has been accompanied by an associated growth in the international trade in education services, particularly higher education. In this paper we provide a detailed analysis of the expansion of higher educational mobility, measured by the burgeoning numbers of tertiary students going abroad to study. In particular, this paper investigates the increasing mobility of students …
Apec labour markets: Structural change and the Asian financial crisis
This study examines the impacts of longer-term structural changes on the labour markets of Asia Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) member economies, as well as the short-run labour market consequences of the Asian financial crisis. All APEC economies have experienced significant structural change in the process of development. A major factor in this structural change has been increased trade intensity (increase in exports and imports as a share …
Trade in Labour Services and Migrant Worker Protection with Special Reference to East Asia
This article argues that the East Asia international labour market is best viewed as bisected along productivity lines. Within this market, the labour‐exporting countries of East Asia provide the overwhelming proportion of low‐skilled migrant workers to the region, and are responding to perceived advantages of a policy of labour export. On the other hand, the movement of highly‐skilled and professional (HSP) workers is best viewed as the result o…
Theories of International Labor Migration: An Overview
Emigration pressures are primarily the result of increasing inequalities between countries which, in turn, are the result of factors internal to less developed countries and their relations with developed countries. Both micro (neoclassical) and macrostructural theories of migration are re-viewed. It is argued that the neoclassical theory of migration is often unjustly criticized and is sufficiently robust to incorporate those structural consider…

International Manpower Flows in Asia: An Overview
Significant differentials in demographic and economic variables shape the nature, extent and direction of economic migration within the diverse Asian region. The Middle East and North Africa have been prime destinations for temporary labor from Asia. However, intra-Asian migration is increasing, characterized by movement of labor from countries at earlier stages of demographic and economic transition to the rapidly growing economies of the region…

Manpower Export and Economic Development: Evidence from the Philippines
The Philippines has actively pursued a policy of labor export with the expectation that it would relieve unemployment, augment the supply of skills, and relieve pressure on the balance of payments. It was also anticipated that the inflow of overseas workers' remittances would translate into increased investment, the sine qua non for economic development. However, recent evidence casts some doubt on the extent to which these goals have been achiev…
Overseas Workers' Remittances in Asian Development

Overseas Workers’ Remittances in Asian Development
In recent years, overseas workers from Asia have been sending remittances of about $8 billion annually to their home countries. These remittances are an important source of precious foreign exchange for the major labor-exporting countries. The overall development impact of remittances, however, has not been well established. Remittances are spent primarily on day-to-day consumption expenditures, housing, land purchase, and debt repayment. Althoug…

Singapore's Foreign Workforce: Some Reflections on its Benefits and Costs
This article provides some empirical information pertaining to the benefits and costs of foreign labor to Singapore and subjects to critical analysis some of Pang and Lim's hypotheses concerning the costs of labor importation presented in a previous article in this journal. The article concludes with a discussion of the real cost to Malaysia of Singapore's labor importation policies and its potential for disruption of Malaysia's development plans

Labor Emigration and Economic Development
This article is concerned with the extent to which labor migration is advantageous to the labor exporting country. It focuses on development consequences of labor emigration with a view toward the formulation of policies which can shape those consequences into a positive force for development, discussing a wide variety of potential costs and benefits generated by labor emigration. The issue of private versus public choice relative to emigration i…
