Abstract
This study aims to analyze and evaluate internal migration in the population of the country of Timor-Leste based on Ravenstain’s theory (1885) and Lee (1966) on types of internal migration with respect push to pull and factors and defining the flow, direction, path and boundaries of internal migration in municipal in the country of Timor-Leste. This study uses a quantitative approach, using the concept of lifetime migration and inter-municipal displacement. The analysis of cross tabulation between the place of birth and the place of registration at the time of the CPH-TL2015 has resulted internal migration of population of Timor-Leste first type. This research uses CSpro, and Excel, and GIS analysis tools with the amount of population internal migration is the percentage of migration rates. The results of this study have produced first type internal migration of Timor-Leste, specific forms of internal migration such as residents who have carried out lifetime migration internal with direction and flow through international boundaries and procedures.The geographic position each municipality and special for municipality of Oe-cusse as an enclave is particularly important and significantly new type of internal migration.
Highlights
As an expert on migration Ravenstien (1885), [1], suggested that the pattern of population migration was influenced by the driving force of the area of origin, barrier factors and attraction of the destination area in the migration process to reach the destination [1,2,3]
In 1958 Petersen [4] and UNDESA (1970) proposed the theory and type of migration based on the spatial boundaries of a country, forming a type of internal and international migration [4,5,6]
The results of this study have found the novelty of the first type of migration for the country of Timor-Leste as, is a unique type of internal migration, unlike the type of internal migration as prescribed by [5, 34, 35, 70, 71] so far, this is because of the specific geographical position of the Oecusse municipal area as an enclave or exclave area for the country of Timor-Leste, namely internal migration carried out by its inhabitants through International channels, borders and procedures
Summary
As an expert on migration Ravenstien (1885), [1], suggested that the pattern of population migration was influenced by the driving force of the area of origin, barrier factors and attraction of the destination area in the migration process to reach the destination [1,2,3]. Several previous studies of internal migration carried out by residents in a country related to the emphasis on geographical position or location: among them to analyze the experience of depopulation of mountain populations in the territory of the country of Tibet because young people go migrating out for educational reasons [15]. Research on internal migration carried out by residents in a country is related to the emphasis on the geographical position or enclave area as “metageography” development, to analyze workers and owners of gold mining land in the country of Papua New Guinea [16]. The theory, classification of migration and the uniqueness concept of an area above are not really appropriate to classify and describe the type of migration that has occurred in the population of TimorLeste, so the results of this study can encourage renewal and authenticity in population migration in the country of Timor-Leste
