So what exactly is immigration?
Immigration is basically the international movement of people into a destination country of which they are not natives. There are both negative and positive sides of immigration, but what I am going to focus on is as to what problems are associated with immigration and also why there is a need for stronger immigration laws to bring things back on track.
The first issue I'd like to highlight regarding this would be pay inequality. In a few countries, most of the companies hire foreign workers instead of the locals. In the countries with greater economical condition, domestic workers work for a higher price than the foreign workers. As more and more domestic jobs are being taken by foreign workers, the unemployment rate among the locals increases. For example, Disney World US recently fired 250 local tech workers, and hired immigrants brought in on H-1B visas. Don't you think it was unfair to those equally talented locals, who now are jobless?
The second issue I'd like to bring up is overpopulation. This is one of the major reasons UK chose to quit from the European Union. The people of Britain thought that Britain was getting overpopulated by numerous European citizens pouring in from all parts of Europe. This meant that the same amount of resources had to be shared among more people now. This partially slowed down Britain's overall development, and thus the people of Britain voted for Brexit.
The next issue I'd like to share is about the people coming from criminal background taking refuge in foreign countries, that too legally! This is a major worldwide problem. For example, the CEO of one of India's renowned companies took huge loans to set up his business, which ended in failure.
Due to inability of repaying them, he flew to UK and is living a lavish life over there. He is out of reach of the Indian government, which is trying hard to extradict him from there.
Till here, I have mentioned about legal immigration, but what about illegal immigration, that cripples a country's economy. In simple words, it is crossing the international border without permission or illegally. According to census, more than 4,000,000 Bangladeshis have illegally immigrated into India over the past few years and are residing in West Bengal. Countries must fortify their borders and secure them from such traits.
These were all yet, problems related to immigration, and proved why there was a need for stronger immigration laws. Now, what about Syrian refugees, most of who are dying in the war-torn country. They are struggling for their safety, and have a humble request of living a peaceful and safe life. Germany and some neighboring European countries are offering refuge to these Syrians, but unfortunately, most of these refugees are dying in a failed attempt to cross the Mediterranean Sea.
SHOULD WE APPLY STRONGER IMMIGRATION LAWS HERE TOO?
That's an open question.
THANK YOU
