Purpose
Despite the large number of Indonesian health-care workers working as migrant care workers in Japan, there is a lack of studies that have investigated this phenomenon or assessed the working conditions of Indonesian care workers working in Japanese aged-care facilities. This study aims to explore the work experiences of Indonesian care workers in Japan.
Design/methodology/approach
A qualitative descriptive research design was used, and a purposive sample of 18 Indonesian health-care workers (12 nurses and six midwives) who work as care workers in Japan participated in this study. Semistructured interviews were conducted with these participants between December 2022 and January 2023. The data were analyzed using content analysis. The Consolidated Criteria for Reporting Qualitative Research checklist was used to report this study.
Findings
Four key themes emerged from the data: easy but mentally challenging, being a care worker is a blessing, working in a partially Muslim-friendly environment and enjoy living: prefer to stay longer.
Originality/value
The work experiences of Indonesian care workers in Japan are complex and multifaceted. By understanding their experiences and needs, the authors can work toward creating more inclusive and supportive workplaces for all.

This article empirically investigates the migration patterns of Indian nurses who have returned from Gulf countries, where obtaining long-term visas and citizenship is difficult, to determine whether their return should be considered a temporary or permanent settlement. The study addresses the likelihood of future migration and explores migration trajectories among these individuals. Our analysis reveals that returned nurses are more inclined to migrate again if currently employed in India’s private sector, which offers lower financial rewards compared to the public sector. On the other hand, those in contract-based public sector jobs express a willingness to relocate to Western countries but not back to Gulf countries. The limited occurrence of circular migrations to Gulf countries among nurses highlights their lower position in the hierarchy of destination countries. This study illustrates the complexities of nurse migration decisions, demonstrating that migration trajectories do not always follow a linear path towards perceived ‘better’ destinations.

Background: The transition process of migration to work abroad can be challenging and, depending on how it is handled, can impact the job satisfaction level of these foreign-educated nurses. A clear understanding of migrant nurses’ job satisfaction is critical for effective translation of nursing practice across the health systems and cultures.
Objective: This study examined the job satisfaction of the foreign-educated nurses in Malaysia, which includes the job satisfaction dimensions and the significant difference between sociodemographic status and job satisfaction.
Methods: A cross-sectional survey of 102 foreign-educated nurses working in private hospitals, clinics, hemodialysis centers, nursing homes, and private homes in Malaysia was conducted from September 2017 to March 2018. Data were collected using a structured questionnaire. Descriptive statistics, Mann-Whitney U, and Kruskal Wallis tests were used to analyze the data.
Results: The study revealed that the participants had a median satisfaction score of 22 (IQR = 19 to 24). Serving the sick and needy and participants’ self-respect were the highest satisfaction dimensions among the participants (Median = 3, IQR = 3 to 3). Moreover, the job satisfaction was significantly higher for registered foreign-educated nurses (mean rank = 62.5) than for unregistered foreign-educated nurses(mean rank = 48.65) when working in other countries (p = 0.02). Indian nurses (mean rank = 60.36) also expressed higher satisfaction in terms of working in other countries than Filipino nurses (mean rank = 46.88; p = 0.02). In addition, positive relationships with colleagues and superiors led to higher satisfaction among Indian nurses (mean rank = 61.02) than among Filipino nurses (mean rank = 47.24; p = 0.04). The job satisfaction of male foreign-educated nurses was significantly higher than their female counterparts in terms of self-respect, relationship with fellow nurses and superiors, working in other countries, career development, and ease of finding employment (p < 0.05).
Conclusion: The overall job satisfaction among the foreign-educated nurses in Malaysia is high, mainly when serving the sick and needy, and their degree of self-respect. Understanding job satisfaction among foreign-educated nurses in Malaysia enables the management team to develop effective strategies for addressing nursing shortages and improving the quality of patient care.
Funding: This study was funded by the Institute of Developing Economies (IDE-JETRO).

Based on detailed household-level surveys and fieldwork, the research project clarified that the recent rural India and Bangladesh have experienced remarkable development of land lease market due to the labor migration to urban areas and abroad, resulting in drastic changes in agrarian structure. The land lease market development was particularly observed in Punjab and Maharashtra in India and Bangladesh. In the other states of India, the land lease market development remained a potential movement because of the various location-specific factors. In Gujarat, for instance, there observed a drastic change in agrarian structure, which is expected to induce the land lease market development in the future.

This research project aims to examine the impact of increasing labour migration on the labour market in the rural areas in the short and mid-term. By doing so, the mechanisms behind growing economic disparity in recent years has been investigated as well. The research area is rural Bihar, one of the poorest states and the main source of seasonal labour in India. Household survey and focus group discussions were carried out. This research found that wealthier villagers tend to be engaged in better-paid jobs outside the state, while poorer villagers have no choice but to engaged in low-paid jobs. We do not find large impacts of increasing male labour out-migration on agriculture and non-agriculture wages as well as on female labour participation. Different employment opportunities across economic strata outside the states further exacerbate economic disparity in recent years.

Recently, Indian economy has experienced higher economic growth and slow poverty reduction. In this background, this research has analyzed the changes of slum households in 2007/08 and 2012, based on original surveys. The analysis focuses on multi-dimensional poverty and child schooling. The research argued that overall, slum households tend to improve their standard of living and at the same time school attendance ratio increased over five years. At the same time, economic disparity of slum households has increased. This resulted in the further correlation between a household's economic wealth and the school it sends children to.
