Immigration to Thailand: The Case of Migrant Workers from Myanmar, Laos, and Cambodia
With about five million Egyptians abroad, Egypt is always regarded in the migration literature as a labor-sending country. Hundreds of articles and books were written on Egypt as a sending country, while few articles regarded Egypt as a receiving country. This chapter is an attempt to shed light on the role of Egypt as a country of immigration, rather than emigration. Since most of the immigrant populations in Egypt are refugees, the main focus of this paper is the exploration of refugee communities in Egypt and their socioeconomic, juridical, and political situation.
Keywords: Egyptian migration, African refugees, migration policy, forced migration, voluntary migration, developing countries, international migration
