 | | Since the number of educated rural youth is small in comparison to those with little or no education, the variations in city opportunities would have much more effect on their migration. | | | In rural development this would for example mean that the decision as to whether a road is built has an impact on migration only if the zone which the road would open up needs to be integrated, but not otherwise. | | | To be effective in dealing with migration, they will have to identify in each case the other plus and minus factors and study the impact of their activities on them. |

| | China Migration 1 |
| | In addition, the emerging urban-rural (vs rural-urban) migration exerts pressure on the government and appropriate management to reform the state-owned segment of the economy if they wish to have some control over the outflows of the highly educated and skilled workers from the formal sector. | | | Conversely, beyond the usual benefits of labour mobility as predicted by economic theory, migration does promote economic reform in the sense that the presence of migrants may provide the prerequisite for deregulating the urban labour market and instituting needed reform in industrial relations in the state enterprises. | | | The general absence of social facilities for rural migrants also put them at a disadvantage as the service sector, dictated by the nature of the industry, demands long-term residence. |

| | Sources of City Growth |
| | Studies of migration from the 1960s to the 1980s generally ignored gender issues, but migration decisions are more complex than the individual decision of a male employment seeker. | | | The transformation of rural economies has created a demand for cash, but not the jobs to supply it. | | | Nevertheless these women are at a disadvantage when they reach the city, and may find themselves trapped in low-wage employment without the qualifications to advance, but still with too much education for work at home. |

| | In Malaysia, most of the remittances are used to maintain rural families or repay social debt and only a small portion of the remittances are used directly as investment for rural development. | | | While there are distinctive differences between intrinsically urban and intrinsically rural populations, urban/rural differentiation is more appropriately perceived as a continuum rather than a strict dichotomy. | | | Male rural-to-urban migration tends to conserve the traditional kinship relations and patriarchal and seniority values, thus reinforcing gender asymmetries in intra-household distribution and management of productive resources. |
