Abstract

People from the developed and developing countries want to settle in the developed country. Emigration of highly skilled persons from developing to developed countries has increased over the past decade. Now the migration is known as a tool for poverty reduction. Migration has more application for the country like Madagascar. Migration effects on economy always attract the researcher to think about it and especially in the new century it has been increased. Madagascar is a developing country. The percentage of migrants from Madagascar is not high. Only some skilled workers and students move from country for study and work. In a globalized village where visa will also be opened, migration obligation plays an energetic role in revenue at micro and macro level. And as a country, Madagascar must have the preparation for progress migration-oriented workers, create people sensitive migration policy and law and take smother steps that allow the working people going overseas. So in this paper migration and its effect have been discussed and at the end conclusion and some recommendations have been suggested.

Summary

Introduction

The Republic of Madagascar is a country located in Eastern Africa, consisting of the world’s fourth largest island and some smaller islands in the Indian Ocean. One estimate suggests that if developed countries were to increase the proportion of migrant workers in the labour force equivalent to 3 per cent, world welfare would increase by over 150 billion dollars per annum [5] Where these flows lead to a drain of highly skilled people from developing countries, the ability of those countries to develop may be compromised. For some poor countries that have high rates of permanent emigration, especially of highly skilled people, migration can be a significant threat Where these countries have poor economic and financial infrastructure, the potential for emigrants to contribute to development through remittances, investment, and return/circulation migration is hampered. Around half of the official international migration from the South is to other developing countries rather than to wealthier countries in the North [6]
