title: International manpower flows in Asia:  an overview.
abstract: The authors review international labor migration flows in Asia. "We will begin with an overview and comparison of the economic and demographic features of the countries of the Asian region.  Following this review, we will assemble what information is available on manpower flows from/to the countries of the region.  In the context of this review, we will draw attention to country-specific variables we believe explain much of this type of migration."
