Labor Migration in Asia
Building effective institutions
This report analyses the institutions and structures that govern labor migration in
Asia. It considers the important role of governments and other stakeholders in both
labour-destination countries such as Japan, the Republic of Korea, and Singapore,
and labour-sending countries such as India, the Philippines, and Sri Lanka. Key issues
are the extent to which these structures provide an orderly process for the movement
of people between countries and whether the rights and the welfare of workers are
protected.
