Volume 13 The Moral Struggle Chapter 22 Migration Flows

The beginning of the small century. Uganda's ambassador to the United Nations lost his shield in the tribal conflict," the people said when they ran out. Poverty is the biggest cancer in human society. In the final analysis, almost all social problems, especially those that lead to major disasters, are caused by poverty. As the Archbishop of South Africa pointed out in response to a question from a Western journalist, the root cause of the wars in Africa is extreme poverty. In contrast to Africa, Western Europe, North America, and Australia, which have large economies, did not experience wars after World War II.

Indonesia's problem, in addition to poverty, is a serious gap between the rich and the poor.

As early as the year of the Blade, Indonesia's Gini coefficient reflects the gap between the rich and the poor in society, which rose from less than 4 at the beginning of the century to more than 100 percent. Although the majority of Indonesians are as able to endure poverty as the citizens of the Republic before the age of the Tsukida, they are also very tolerant of social injustices, such as in the era of the Lunar Blade, when humanity was about to colonize the moon, there were still about 10,000 Indonesians who scavenged from the crater to make a living, and none of them lived to live to the fields. What they get in exchange for their health and longevity is just a few dollars a day. But it only takes a small percentage of people who are dissatisfied with society to cause serious social unrest. There is no doubt that there is no shortage of fighters who are dissatisfied with society and who dare to stand up and fight in any country.

Affected by national conditions. The social unrest in Indonesia is distinctly nationalistic.

You must know that as early as the era of the Li Century Blade, the Chinese, who accounted for less than the total population, controlled the social wealth of Indonesia 8 Anhui with their hard work and ingenuity, which led to the long-term anti-Chinese policy pursued by the military government in the era of the Li Century Blade and the rush era, as well as the serious ** riots born in the year of the thug's nephew, which led to the death of hundreds of thousands of Chinese and the victimization of millions of Chinese. After entering the century, Indonesia's ** problem has still not been solved, and it almost broke out again in the injured year. It can be said that Sanjian Group has placed resource processing enterprises in Malaysia, and even invested heavily in building industrial parks and expanding port throughput capacity, because it is suspicious of the anti-Chinese sentiment in Indonesian society and does not want to take additional risks. It can even be said that the Republic's multinational enterprises invest in Indonesia mainly in the resource extraction industry, which is also to reduce investment risks. In any case, the upfront investment in resource extraction is not large, the return of capital is faster, and the time for divestment is more convenient.

Thankfully. Before the Year of Lili, the anti-Chinese and ** sentiment in Indonesian society was not serious.

In any case, before the Year of Lili, especially before the Year of Drowning, due to the impact of the global Great Depression, the Indonesian government and the Indonesian people knew that they could not offend the Republic and that they must rely on the Republic's market and the Republic's investment to maintain social stability. Before the year of Daoshao, so to speak. The most that the Indonesian government has done is to introduce various administrative regulations to protect the interests of the Republic's multinational corporations in Indonesia and to control the sentiment of the people in the country.

The so-called good covers up all the ugliness, and the economy has been expanding upward, so many problems have been covered.

In fact, as early as the year of Qu, anti-Chinese and ** sentiment in Indonesian society began to rise. In March of that year, a terrorist attack that killed many people and injured many people was the case of a multinational company born at the Marriott International Hotel in Jakarta. Although the Indonesian authorities acted quickly. Special forces were dispatched to kill several terrorists, rescue hundreds of hostages, and, at the request of the Republic, have the Republic's criminal experts, in fact, intelligence agents interrogate the only terrorists captured alive, but the incident still has a serious negative impact on relations between the two countries. In that year, the number of tourists from the Republic of China to Indonesia decreased by 70%, and the investment of multinational enterprises in Indonesia by 40% fell sharply, and many large multinational enterprises, including Sanjian Group, Ye Hong Group and Huasheng Group, have transferred their investment destinations to Malaysia and Thailand, and even in the middle of the year, there was news that Sanjian Group was preparing to withdraw from Indonesia. Even if it was just a rumor spread by some Western news media with ulterior motives, the company's stock plummeted in a matter of days, while it was in talks for a share swap merger with Argentina's largest state-owned mining group. As a result of the stock crash, Sanjian Group paid about $100 million more to acquire South America's fourth-largest mining group, and the Western financial companies that hold the group's listed shares have benefited tens of billions of dollars.

Of course, there is a problem here.

When looking at Indonesia, many people compare the country to Mexico in North America. To be exact. Compare the relationship between the Republic and Indonesia with the relationship between the United States and Mexico.

Historically, the United States and Mexico have also had contradictions, and even fought each other, and Mexico is also at the bottom of the industrial chain dominated by the United States. What's more. Mexico also has statistics on hundreds of millions of people, the gap between the rich and the poor is very large, and the problem of poverty is also very serious. However, in the early turn of the century, Mexico was not only not an enemy of the United States, but also one of the most important allies of the United States.

It can be said that Indonesia is indeed very similar to Mexico in terms of its physical location, the country's basic environment, and the state of social development. The salary address of this station was changed to: Gang Xun Kou Yang Sun Zhaobi... Please Lu Yue! Delete. Indonesia does not have a Ming state that can become a republic

Exactly, some think. The republic is far inferior to the United States in dealing with peripheral issues.

Obviously, it is not easy to explain this problem.

Some of the reasons have been mentioned earlier, such as the special natural environment of India, as well as the historical and cultural scenery.

The point is that if you really want to find the crux of the problem, you have to start with the republic.

One of the key factors that allowed the U.S. to come together with Mexico was that both the U.S. and Mexico were countries of immigration. In particular, the United States, as the most culturally open-minded country in the world, has a unique advantage in national competition. When cooperating with Mexico, there will certainly be no so-called "anti-Ink sentiment" in American society. At most, there are complaints about some issues related to Mexico, such as illegal labor, drug smuggling, money laundering, etc., and these problems can be resolved through cooperation. From Mexico's point of view, because Hispanics are the third largest ethnic group in the United States after whites and blacks, Mexicans do not have deep-seated anti-American sentiments, at least not anti-American sentiments that have evolved from nationalist ideas. These two factors fundamentally determined that the United States would be able to come together with Mexico and achieve economic unity by building a common market.

There can be no doubt that there are no such basic conditions between the Republic and Indonesia.

Among other things, the issue of migration alone has had a very serious negative impact on the relations between the Republic and Indonesia.

As everyone knows. Soon after the Fourth Indo-Pakistani War, with the establishment of the "China-South Asian Market Community", immigrants from Pakistan, Nepal, Bangladesh and Sri Lanka poured in, and the Republic became a "net recipient of immigrants", which brought about the migration problem that affected the Republic for decades. Because Pakistan and Bangladesh are Islamic countries, it is difficult for immigrants from these two countries to gain a firm foothold in the mainstream society of the republic, not to mention, the vast majority of Pakistanis and Bangladeshis are difficult to adapt to the dietary habits of the republic, although Nepal and Sri Lanka are Buddhist countries, immigrants from these two countries and the mainstream culture of the republic do not have much contradiction, after all, the Chinese nation is deeply influenced by Buddhism, but the population of Nepal and Sri Lanka is not large, Naturally, there will not be many immigrants going out. Therefore, as the problem of population aging became more serious, starting from the introduction of the first law that was conducive to immigration, to the short period of the year, the Republic of China has promulgated a total of laws and laws related to immigration. You must know that during this period, only four laws and bills related to the rights and interests of citizens of the Republic were promulgated. It can be seen that the top level of the republic has long recognized the great significance of immigration to promote social development.

The problem is that the Republic Year has consciously or unintentionally ignored Indonesia, a country with a large population.

According to the official of the Republic in February, the secretary of the thug cited the day. The Immigration Bureau, which is subordinate to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, has released more than 10,000 "red cards", that is, social welfare security cards for residents of the Republic, because they are red. And it corresponds to the green card of the United States and the blue card of the European Union. That's why there is such a name, of which the rest is given to immigrants from Southeast Asian countries, and only about 10,000 of them are given to Indonesian immigrants. Other words. As the most populous country in Southeast Asia; Indonesian immigrants entering the republic account for only about the region's immigrants and the gills of the republic's receiving migrants. Indonesia is ahead of Myanmar, North Korea, Vietnam, Thailand, Bangladesh, Kenya and Nigeria. It is normal to be behind several Asian countries, after all, Myanmar, North Korea, Vietnam, Thailand and Bangladesh are all allies of the republic. And both have very close contacts with the Republic, but it is a bit too much to say that they are behind the two non-state countries, especially Nigeria. Obviously, this is a very abnormal situation. With Indonesia's national conditions, as well as its geographical location, Indonesia is certainly the number one provider of immigrants to the Republic if there are no human reasons.

In fact, before the year of Lili, the Republic had repatriated at least illegal immigrants from Indonesia, and if you count the smugglers on the smugglers on the smuggling boats expelled by the patrol ships of the Republic's Maritime Affairs Agency on the high seas, I am afraid that this number will be more than Jinwan. Including Jinwan immigrants who have obtained citizenship of the Republic through legal means, Indonesia is already the largest provider of immigrants to the Republic.

There are three main reasons for this.

It is a question of religious belief.

Like Pakistan and Bangladesh, Indonesia is an Islamic country, and it is the most populous Islamic country in the world. Although this is not the main reason, because Bangladesh is also an Islamic country, and the number of immigrants has surpassed that of Indonesia. Nigeria is also barely an Islamic country, with about a million of its citizens being Muslims, and the number of immigrants entering the republic has surpassed that of Indonesia.

The second is the issue of recognition in the society of the republic.

You must know that among the immigrants in Shanfeiwan, except for a very small number of elite-level talents with advanced academic qualifications, most of the immigrants are engaged in the most ordinary labor in the republic. The Republic Academy of Social Sciences conducted a survey in the year of the knife. The immigrants who settled in the Republic were mainly engaged in occupations, from the most to the least, in order of elderly care, domestic service, urban sanitation, catering, tourism and engineering

From this report, we can see not only the problems of the republic, but also the problems of immigrants. Because the aging of the population has been very serious, elderly care has already accounted for the largest proportion of the service industry. According to the statistics of social security institutions, in the past year, the republic at least lacked thugs to persuade thousands of elderly care service personnel, and the annual output value of elderly care is more than one trillion yuan. Because the main young and middle-aged labor force in the republic has to engage in social production, and with the reduction of the labor force, there are a lot of opportunities for success in society, although the state has repeatedly increased the policy to encourage young couples to raise more children, but the vast majority of couples of childbearing age first consider career, rather than family, so to take care of minors, especially infants and young children, the family service industry has become the second largest industry in the service industry, and the labor gap in the year of Li Phantom is as high as 40,000. The other three industries are basically labor-intensive, not requiring high skills, and relatively high physical requirements, so it is logical that most of the male immigrants with low cultural quality, as well as young female immigrants, choose the direction of employment.

In the first two industries. Elderly care takes care of the elderly over the age of Wang, and most of the employers of domestic service are middle-aged people over the age of the age, these people have rich social experience and mature ideological values, and have relatively high requirements for the employment object, and are easily influenced by social public opinion. As a result, when it comes to hiring caregivers and nannies, many employers prefer to hire Nigerian immigrants rather than Indonesian immigrants.

Especially after the anti-Chinese ** turmoil in the year of the blade, many people clearly stated that they did not want Indonesians when hiring nannies.

Cutting off two of the most important sources of employment, Indonesian immigrants have a much less chance of finding a stable job in the Republic. In accordance with the relevant laws of the Republic. In order to become a permanent citizen of the Republic, an immigrant with a temporary residence permit must have been employed for at least 8 consecutive years. or a continuous year of employment in a particular industry. In fact, this threshold is very low, in the United States it is the year of the thug and the year of the eight, and in the European Union it is the year of the old and the year of the mouth. The problem is that because most immigrants lack labor skills, it is not easy to find suitable jobs. According to incomplete statistics, at least 40,000 of the illegal immigrants from Indonesia who were repatriated by the Republic expired their temporary residence permits, stayed without permission because they did not want to return to China, and were finally forcibly repatriated by the Immigration Bureau.

The last reason is that the immigration laws and regulations of the Republic are very unfavorable to Indonesians.

In addition to the above-mentioned continuous working hours, after the issue of pension was exposed, the plenary session clearly mentioned in the "Fourth Amendment to the Immigration Management Measures" that all foreigners who apply for temporary residence permits for work, as well as foreigners who apply for permanent residence permits, must pass the Chinese language qualification test recognized by the Immigration Bureau.

To stay in the republic. At the very least, you have to be fluent in Chinese, not for the citizens of the republic to adapt to immigration, to learn English or some other nonsense. The amendment is not draconian, and you have to pass a language test to get a green card in the United States and a blue card in the European Union. The same is true of the situation. There is no problem with several "large immigrants". In North Korea, for example, Chinese has become the second official language, and all North Korean students have to learn Chinese from the first grade of primary school and have to take a Chinese test for the college entrance examination. In Vietnam, Laos, Shuk Tang Sai, Thailand and Myanmar, Chinese is a compulsory first foreign language, while in Pakistan and Bangladesh, Chinese is also a compulsory foreign language. What's more, before the medicine year, the Chinese qualification test was mainly speaking, that is, speaking. In this way, the younger generation of most of the Republic's allies were able to successfully pass the Chinese language qualification test.

It's a pity. Indonesia is not an ally of the republic. Moreover, Chinese is only an optional foreign language in Indonesia, not a compulsory foreign language. A few years ago, when Indonesians applied for work and permanent residence permits in China, they were silenced outside the borders of the Republic.

The issue of immigration illustrates the enormous divide between the Republic and Indonesia.

In the final analysis, the issue of migration is actually a direct manifestation of the contradiction between two countries, or two peoples.

Just as the discrimination against Latin American immigrants in the United States in the last century has caused great problems for American society, Indonesian immigrants have always been inferior in all kinds of discrimination in the Republic, whether it is employment and education, medical care or social security. As a result, the crime rate among immigrants in Indonesia has remained high. The high crime rate, in turn, affects the immigration policy of the authorities of the republic, making it increasingly difficult for Indonesian immigrants to obtain a "red card". The problem is that even the strictest immigration laws cannot stop smuggling, and in fact, the stricter the immigration control in a country, the more serious the problem of smuggling. According to a survey report by the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences, there are about 10,000 illegal immigrants from Indonesia who are engaged in various jobs in the Republic of China, and it is expected that by the end of the year. This number will increase to 10,000, and the number of legal immigrants in the Republic will be about 10,000. In other words, by the end of the year, illegal immigrants from Indonesia alone were equivalent to one-third of the legal immigrants admitted to the republic.

So many illegal immigrants are definitely a catty, problem, and a very big problem.
