Immigrant Indian Workers vs Indian diaspora

[rkumar]

Dear Friends,

We have large number of Indians working overseas. In one category we have Immigrant Indian Workers and in another India Diaspora. Immigrant workers form a silent mass and Indian Diaspora gets all the media and government attention. Indian Diaspora makes all the noise and interestingly contributes hardly much to India in terms of FDI when compared to its poor cousins called Immigrant Indian Workers. Please have a look at the World Bank figures and have your say on the contributions of two;

Very good information Rajendra Ji. I think the immigrant worker neither has the time nor the desire to propogate how he/she helps the nation. It is left to wealthy few who are probably more interested in advertising their wealth or achievement: Nothing wrong I guess so long it helps the country.

Indian diaspora are the in the west to settle down, they are remitting money, for relatives, charity and fun!.

where the only reason the lower class worker are in middle east IS to send money back to their families.

So the numbers make sense!

I think the recognison, in some sense, is also resonable. The Indian diaspora ( i don't know the meaning of this word, diaspora, what is it ?) are sending out of their attatchement to India, whereas the workers are INDIAN,
