Description:
"...The report covers migration dynamics in East and South-East Asia and is a collaborative effort
by all the organizations that participate in the Regional Thematic Working Group, which is
co-chaired by the Economic and Social Commission for Asia and the Pacific (ESCAP) and the
International Organization for Migration (IOM), the aim of which is to explore the complex
inter-linkages between international migration and the process of economic, demographic and
social development within the region. As such, it aspires to be a tool both for migration policy
formulation in a comprehensive manner similar to, and consistent with the formulation of other
development objectives, and for fostering understanding of social and cultural interaction. It is
also hoped that the findings of this report will support public dialogue that will, in the long term,
lead to a process of developing coherent and coordinated migration policies. The report suggests
key areas in which there is scope for greater regional and subregional cooperation in improving
the management of migration as well as for the enhancement of its positive impacts on the
source and host countries and the migrants themselves..."
