Distress Migration

Caught Up in Policy Gaps: Distressed Communities of South-Asian Migrant Workers in Little India, Singapore

Author : Geerhardt Kornatowksi | 2016
Published By: Oxford University Press and Community Development Journal

This study examines in a relational manner the daily living conditions of South-Asian ‘regular workers’ (‘work permit holders’) in their workplace and ‘irregular workers’ (‘special pass holders’) who are seeking refuge due to trouble with their employer. Particular attention will be given to the distressed living conditions and how these are addressed by a non-governmental organization in Little India.
