When a ship sinks, people tend to leave the deck; the same could be seen in third world countries. As government fails to address and resolve issues collaboratively, professionals flee to other more developed countries where they could sustain better life, unaware of the repercussions of such acts on the leaving behalf. In this essay, we will discuss about the shortage of workforce resulted from migration, as well as solutions viable to this scenario.
Country is built upon people, but with the lack of workforce, developing countries struggle economically. Since the economy of a country is defined by the gross domestic product, ever increasing scarcity in industrial activity influences negatively towards the government, which would have been alleviated, had the labor been sufficient. Another side of the issue, regarding the movement of non-industrial professionals, teacher and doctors for example, should also be addressed, as this results in poorer living quality for citizens.
However, although not that simple to implement, there is a solution. The main reason for professionals leaving is insufficiency in the amount being paid, so we should direct our focus in that direction. Should the workers,and professionals get satisfied with their salary, developing countries may get the second moon. Another strategy to reduce the rate of professionals leaving is to encourage them to grow within the country, help the nation. A psychological study claimed people are satisfied when they feel they are making a difference.
To sum up all said before, people are chasing ambition beyond the border of their own country, and resulting in the economical difficulties within the country. To solve that, government should take measures to satisfy the needs of those professionals, whether financially, or emotionally, to ensure healthy nation and an upward trend into the future.
