Some explanations or reasons I hear people migrate to other countries and the U.S in particular is because they want a better life away from turmoil back in their countries. For example strict governments/ corrupt government, persecution, economic hardships, political turmoil, and natural disasters. As I mentioned before Asians migrate to other countries or come to the U.S because the government over there don’t give them as much freedom that they are originally born with, according Yeonmi Park she escaped North Korea in search of freedom saying “There’s no internet, they are not allowed to sing, wear, or think what they want.” Also that “North Korea is the only country in the world that execute people for making unauthorized international phone calls.” Beyond Asian migrants, there are Haitian migrants that were forced into exile, speaking of someone in my family that was forced to leave as a punishment, then had to leave the next country because of economic distress and political disorder. I would say that these explanations are like confirmations to the theories that Yung put forth.
Other ‘clusters of factors” that would add to Yung’s theories about why Asians are migrating could because of their religions some are being kept in detention camps for example Muslims in China’s detention centers. Also people migrate because of their sexualities, some countries forbids same-sex marriage, these could be reasons why people leave for a better life.

Yvvenson, I definitely understand the reasoning in coming to America because of government corruption. If the government decides to pass extreme laws or not deal with a nationwide crisis or issues, people will not have faith in those in power. Those in power with control over you can get away with anything and for that, I would fear myself to be in that presence of corruption. That reason for leaving where I am from to migrate to America is like escaping the control and grabbing freedom.
Hi,
I definitely agree with you that some countries just have a corrupt government, leading the rich to be richer, the poor to be poorer. Jobs are not found and if found the pay Is very low. Having a corrupt government is also the leading cause of immigration from countries because it can also be dangerous to the individual.
I agree with all of you on how a corrupt government also plays a major role in people wanting to leave their countries. Often governments pass very strict and unfair laws such as banning certain religious practices or banning homosexual relationships. These unfair laws often force people to flee their nations in order to avoid persecution. For example, some Uyghur Muslims from China have fled the country due to Islam being banned, and Muslims being places into concentration camps and being treated like literal animals. They flee the country to avoid this discrimination and terrible treatment.
