greener pastures, December 18 is International Migrants Day More and more people are leaving their country of origin in search of a better life. There are over 230 million international migrants in the world. In search for economic prosperity, to escape conflict, famine or poverty. Others to a better education system of more affluent countries or a cultural freedom of their destination. Five countries top the bill boards in the highest number of immigrants. Saudi Arabia One third of Saudi population made up of immigrants. Germany 9.8 million immigrants living in Germany. Apparently they did stage a protest against immigration but it fell on deaf ears, immigration laws permit citizens from other countries to settle there. Technology experts. Engineers, doctors, education specialist. Etc.. Russia 11 million immigrants reside at Russia United States 45 million immigrants..the land of opportunity, has by far the highest number of immigrants in the world. United Arab Emirates 7.8 million immigrants in the UAE many attracted to the oil rich state. Looking at these figures get me thinking, "wow, here I was thinking we in Africa are faced with immigrants,". Legal or illegal they human beings in search of a better life, greener pastures perhaps. Not forgetting my own roots from India, my forefathers came to South Africa in search for greener pastures and they found the land of gold.
