IMI EXPERIENCE ON REFUGEES
IMI experience on refugees showed that Economic Migrations was made possible by globalization whose forces of demand and supply were felt by every country. The economic insecurities made the possibilities of migrations even stronger as it was only way to survive poverty. ‘Nationalism’ was exhibited as a natural aggressive reaction to new comers, which without leadership EMs risked being injured or killed for the fear of altering control and benefit of available economic opportunities. Sustainable Development was made possible by tolerant and accommodating leadership that took advantage of the working age of EMs to generate revenue in form of tax while at the same time remitting millions of dollars back to their native countries to support families and the economy. Conclusion and Recommendations: EMs motives were genuine and necessary for survival of populations bypassed by development. The fears to new comers (EMs) were expected and normal just as one would react to any change whether good or bad. Good governance was key to sustainable development with supported efforts of EMs. Eventually outcomes were good for everyone –including the nationalists. Thus, there was need to relax restriction on EMs, management of extreme fears of nationalist and for EMs to learn to cope while institutions protect sections of the community that are insecure and at risk of violence, and expansion of infrastructure to accommodate and reduce negative pressure on available resources in order to transform the new situation (EMs and Nationalism) to benefit all for a long-term basis –with due consideration of the renewability and continued benefit from the environment resources.
