This root cause alongside other globalisation- related factors such as the rapidly rising standard of living due to the immigration of rich foreign talents, culture dilution and loss of common space, has resulted in much unhappiness among the locals and many of them leaving Singapore in search of better…

The apartheid monitored and hindered all movement of its black population and therefore was not very welcoming to Africans from elsewhere. Between 1913 and 1986, black people could only enter South Africa illegally or as contract workers as they were not allowed to apply for temporary or permanent resident permits (Maharaj, 4).

potato famine. There is some debate over whether the British were to blame for the mass emigration of the Irish, or that this emigration was bound to happen anyway. Many historians have established their positions on this issue, including Christine Kinealy and Hasia R. Diner. Kinealy, the author of This Great Calamity: The Irish Famine 1845-52, argues that the British are to blame for this mass emigration from Ireland.
