Migration

Migration

Human migration is the physical movement of humans from one area to another, sometimes over long distances or in large groups, match as a variety of sources over the Internet. The movement of populations in modern times has continued under the form of both voluntary migration within one's region, country, or beyond, and involuntary migration. People who migrate are called migrants or more specifically, emigrants, immigrants, or settlers, depending on historical setting, circumstances and perspective. No matter how they are called, all of them helped to increase the statistics related to migration issues in Latin America and around the world.

First, it is important to know that we can find hundreds of stories of people who decided to leave their country. For example, Heritage Foundation said that more than 10 million undocumented foreigners currently reside in the United States, and that population is growing by 700,000 per year. Typical illegal aliens come to America primarily for better jobs and in the process they add value to the U.S. economy. However, they also take away value by weakening the legal and national security environment. When three out of every 100 people in America are undocumented (or, rather, documented with forged and faked papers), there is a deep security problem. Even though they pose no direct security threat, the presence of millions of undocumented migrants distorts the law, distracts resources, and effectively creates a cover for terrorists and criminals.

In Costa Rica, this problem is caused mainly by migration from Nicaragua. They are people who come here for a greater mix of motives: seasonal migrants, who come for up to a year, mainly to harvest export crops, semi-permanent migrants, who leave part of their family behind and go back to Nicaragua for visiting every year or two. They are mostly involved in economic activities that require a more prolonged stay: construction, private security, domestic labor, commerce and services and -permanent migrants, accompanied by their families. Regardless of the cause Costa Rica faces the challenge of dealing with a considerable amount of undocumented people.

In summary, the reasons why people leave their native country are varied, in many cases they get what they want, in others they must return home with empty hands and many bad memories in their pockets. Increase the migration figures every day and litigation for those who are usurping what is not theirs will continue day after day, the most important point here is to find a way to achieve consistent migration to the possibilities of each country and appropriate treatment to enable continuous respect of every human being right. We need remember that the presence of millions of undocumented migrants “distorts the law, distracts resources, and some others problems.
