Migration of the young
Bhutan is touted as prioritising Gross National Happiness over Gross Domestic Product but the reality is that economic prospects counts a lot for youths who need to seek a future career growth opportunity that realises their dreams and a better quality of life.
So Hong Kong and Myanmar faced similar issue in brain drain of young professionals for greener pastures as do Malaysia.With a globalized economy the global villages welcomes talent and innovators that can help propel a nation to higher GDP growth.Dont use patriotism or nationalism as a deterrrent to prevent brain drain as the young need a clear career path for themselves to live a better tomorrow.Migration has seen our ancestors leave war torn nations or disaster striken nations to venture to new lands.so if the government doesnt have long term plans to revitalize the economy,it will push more youths to migrate abroad and the brain drain will worsen with the digital economy as the digital nomads can live anywhere in the global village.
