Migration / Immigration Assessment

My cousin name is Tun. He moved from Vietnam to America when he was 3 years old. His family decided to move there for better opportunities of having better living. They have lived there for almost 20 years. His parents got a good job in there. His mom is an accountant and his father is a pharmacist. The pull factor is better job in America, the salary is much higher, the tax is lower, the house is more comfortable, the school is better and they can get more benefits from their company like: car and free accommodation. This is an external migration. He moved to another country because of his parent’s decision. The urban city that he lives is lively. It’s a very crowded. He doesn’t have any relatives in America. Life is better his family. His parents got a good job, and he went to a good school…His family thought here school was the best and have better education. It good enough for him to studied hard. He learned about designing. Now, he’s a fashion designer.

Some of the positive effects when he went to a new place are: good climate; the people are friendly, good food and modern technology. Negative effects are: he is scared of his new school because he had new classmates, unfamiliar with the area he’s living, foreign language spoken and culture. The positive effects when he left his country are pollution free, better schools and learned a lot of new things. The negative effect when he left his country is boredom because he had to stay at home the first time he came. He felt homesick because he missed his friends and relatives. He really loves to live in America. Only he wants to come back to Vietnam just to visit his relatives and friends.
