No I was just politely reminding the poster that s/he may have forgotten to reply to my post. I don't have any issue if s/he does not wish to respond to my post. I'm just curious to hear what their answer to my post is. No hard feelings either way.

All passive aggressive there aren't we.
Because I didn't grow up in a war torn economically ravaged country I'm privileged enough to have a choice. Most migrants don't.

pappa mentioned him originally but cookie was referring to the same person. we have no idea of the qualifications of the sudanese guy that recedite introduced so cannot discuss him properly.

I grew up in Ireland. There was more war in the north of the country than there is now in the north of Nigeria. And a lot less oil.

We can discuss what ever we want. Pappa's friend with all the qualifications can't pass the same exam as a guy who doesn't know the difference between an elbow an ankle.

I smell bullcrap and think pappa was telling porkies.

Discuss...

I wouldn't be of the view that Bangladesh is a war torn country as with most third world countries. I would be of the view that most migrants from third world countries are not fleeing war torn countries but rather coming in the false hope of a better life in a first world country the truth is their here in the west isn't any better to what they are used to back home. Case in point Somali migrants sending their children back to Somalia due to London's high rate of knife crime.

But if given the choice would you feel better able to intergrate into Australian society or Bangladeshi society? Once under no obligation to answer just curious to hear your views.

I have a family friend from Nicaragua. Was a qualifed gp over there, and a medic during the war.

He became a refugee in Ireland as his family were in severe danger over there.

Took him years to get his papers.

And then the medical Council wouldn't recognize his credentials.

Once he could work, he was only able to get kitchen Porter work.

He did that while looking for other work

He's currently a receptionist at a medical practice. A complete waste of a person's qualifications.

So yes, I do believe things should be different.

Where did I say Bangladesh was war torn? Is it an integrate or migrate question you're asking me? You've changed it.

Apologies I may have misinterpreted your post when you said "because I didn't grow up in a war torn economically ravaged country I'm privileged enough to have a choice" I thought you may have been suggesting that you thought Bangladesh is a war torn country. No worries though

I asked which would you feel more comfortable moving to which is in terms of both emigrating and intergrating into those countries. Just to clear up any confusion which once again I apologise if I did.

If I could get the same job as I have here I'd say Bangladesh.

Ok so but could you elaborate a bit if you so wish. I'm curious to know why you would choose a poorer country which speaks a different language. Are you the more adventurous type?

That's great if it is what floats your boat but do you accept the majority of other Irish people aswell as Westerners would choose choose Australia as they might find it an easier country to assimulate into. I know which option I would pick.

I haven't been to Australia myself but I have heard some bad things from people who have been there likewise the US but even though I would not want to leave Ireland I would probably prefer to emigrate to those countries than poorer countries that don't speak English like Bangladesh.

But what has all that got to do with migration? Migrants either flee poverty or persecution. Why would the majority of Irish or Westerners flee to poverty? Your premise makes no sense. Of course they'd for the most part pick Australia. Here's a lollipop for being correct.

The emigrant Irish have returned home and done this country proud. Migrants often often return home long after fleeing there home to restart anew. Returning migrants can help develop their countries. Reducing emigration from said countries (see Ireland as an example)

Centuries ago Irish people went off to Europe and educated themselves and then returned home to educate their people. Migration benefits can not only be for the host country but also for the home country.

In the past how many Irish in America kept their families here afloat sending home money?

As people on here are fond of espousing if you're fleeing a desperate situation why don't you land in the nearest place to you?

Why did Irish end up in America during the famine????
