Migrants
locked out of the West
Extract from
the article:
The article discusses how migrants,
particularly economic migrants seeking better opportunities, are facing
challenges in the West.
It highlights the plight of those seeking a
better life in Western countries but are labeled as economic migrants and face
repatriation.
Despite the opposition from various quarters,
the influx of migrants into the EU continues to be a daily occurrence, posing
economic and social challenges.
The article sheds light on the struggles and
marginalization faced by this group of individuals who are often the biggest
losers in the political landscape.
My Take:
Exporting
Manpower
Reflecting on my earlier blog post about the massive diaspora of Indians working abroad, it's
evident that the challenges faced by economic migrants resonate deeply with the
current scenario.
The reluctance of host
countries to embrace these individuals seeking a better life mirrors the
sentiments expressed in my past write-up.
The resistance from trade unions and political
parties against migrants echoes the concerns raised about job displacement and
economic strain due to migration.
It's crucial to address these issues with
compassion and understanding while finding sustainable solutions to integrate
migrants into the workforce.

In the context of the current article, the
concept of Indian professionals excelling on the global stage despite
challenges resonates deeply with the struggles of
migrants seeking acceptance in the West.
Just as Indians overseas contribute significantly to their host countries' economies,
migrants too have the potential to enrich the societies they join.
The parallels between the narratives of
Indians working abroad and economic migrants striving for better opportunities
underline the importance of inclusivity and recognizing the talents and
aspirations of diverse populations.
Call to Action:
To the policymakers and authorities mentioned
in the article, I urge a reevaluation of immigration policies to provide
equitable opportunities for migrants.
It is
essential to create pathways for economic migrants to contribute meaningfully
to their host countries while fostering diversity and inclusivity.
Embracing migrants as valuable assets rather
than burdens can lead to a more prosperous and harmonious society.
