Surge in Chinese Migration to the US: Understanding the 'Snakeheads' and the Routes

China United States

#immigration

The US faces a surge in Chinese migration, with 37,000 Chinese migrants crossing from Mexico, a 50-fold increase. Migrants use various routes, including Ecuador and perilous paths like the Darien Gap.

'Snakeheads' facilitate the journey, earning substantial fees. COVID-19 impacts and dissatisfaction with China's leadership drive this trend. Historical bans on Chinese immigration also play a role.

Most migrants are middle-class seeking economic opportunities or asylum. The southern border is now a preferred route. The US grants asylum to a significant number of Chinese migrants.

Georgia Immigrant Communities Fear Mass Deportations Under New Trump Term

Georgia

#deport

Georgia's immigrant communities are bracing for mass deportations as President-elect Trump plans the largest deportation program in U.S. history. Atlanta’s Hispanic community held a town hall to address fears, especially among mixed-status families.

Trump has proposed using the military to enforce deportations, invoking the Insurrection Act, though legal experts question its applicability. Recent events, including the murder of a nursing student by an undocumented Venezuelan, have intensified immigration debates.

U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement deported 4,500 people from Atlanta this year. Experts warn such measures could harm civil liberties and traumatize immigrant communities, reminding them of the hardships they fled.

A Spanish journalist, FBC, overstayed his visa by over three years, accumulating 1,316 days illegally. Bali continues to enforce strict measures to uphold tourism and immigration laws, ensuring public order on the island.

Concordia University Launches Institute to Enhance Migration Research and Support Newcomers

Canada

#immigration

#study

Concordia University has introduced the Institute for Research on Migration and Society (IRMS) in Montreal. The institute aims to study immigration impacts, provide evidence-based research, and foster dialogue to assist newcomers in Canada.

IRMS is a bilingual hub addressing Quebec’s unique migration dynamics, including inter-provincial emigration and policy collaboration. Key projects include improving social sustainability in immigration and creating Quebec’s first dedicated immigration research network.

Quebec’s control over immigration pathways, such as suspensions on key PR programs and a new cap limiting admissions by country, highlights the need for such research. Federal pathways remain viable for skilled and French-speaking workers.
