Youth in Philippines prefer working overseas

The Philippines' long history of migration is deeply ingrained in the country's social, economic and cultural climate. This migration trend now resonates with the country's youth, especially the newer generation (Gen Z), as they begin to enter the workforce.Based on a 2019 survey conducted by the World Economic Forum (WEF) last August, 52.9 percent of Philippine youth aged 15 to 35-years-old would like to work overseas.
