Hi, im wonder how many of you guys emigrate to this parts of earth. From U.S.A or E.U ("the rich part od the world"). And why you do this?? Here is my story: When i was ending school at 19 i thinking what should i do next? Another school > academic title > work???. I take me six months to find someone who is brain is also in the "fog", the state of mind when you are separated from from "reality". Then i start thinking about emigration becouse that was almost only think i can do....so i buy i ticket and end up in Brasil working in pizzeria :)

There are huge opportunities right now in Brazil, especially if you know the language. Same for Angola for example. Many Portuguese companies expanding into those markets right now. I would go, if not for the family issue.

Brasil and Angola have HUGE inequality issues. The majority of the population is very poor. But those are countries with LOTS of money due to natural resources. Like I said there are huge opportunities there, although those are not easy markets. And yes, crime level in Brasil is through the roof.

But poor people still have something to eat, like coconuts and bananas it`s grow everywhere in brasil. Crime level is much more lower than 10 years before. I agree marked is really hard, first you have to speak portuguese really well (dont have a chance with english) than you have to work really hard.

Just because a country is a emerging market does not mean its worth moving to long term or that there's any more opportunity for a individual there than in a already wealthy nation...

Well I am Portuguese :) I tell you, if I loose my job in Portugal I'll definitely look into those markets, specifically Brasil and Angola.

Many of these emerging markets do too... Not to mention being highly reliant on investment from wealthy countries.

There's an inflow of Spanish and Portuguese people here in my country, as well as return from it's own population that were abroad. They are being paid high wages due to an constraint on the supply of working force, specially qualified, since we are close to a level of full-employment (though I disagree with the terms in wich the word is being thrown around). The situation is the opposite in their own end, so it's an easy decision for most of them.

Personally, I feel that as a poor country we shouldn't be obliged to subsidize the life style of decadent rich countries. Mostly because it's not a stable migratory situation, nor can we really exploit qualified labour, unlike we have done with the unqualified italians in the late 19th and 20th century. When inevitably the problems in the E.U. are over, they are going to trade in their chips and return. Political orders are however, to throw the red carpets for foreign labour force; order is to absorver brains and knowledge. That would work if we were stealing their employed people, not the jobless people.

Techincally that's a good question. Some would say GDP per capita.

Take Angola, GDP per capita is around a tenth of what it is where I live now. And all the growth and money there revolves exclusively around oil and minerals. Unless you're working as a professional in those fields, (and as a result probably working for a company from a far wealthier nation) you're going to be stuck on the low end of the earning spectrum.

Portugal and Brasil have experienced an interesting cycle of migration over the years. During the dicatorship in Portugal, many Portuguese emigrated to Brasil. Over the last 20 years the situation reversed dramatically, with a huge inflow of Brazilians into Portuguese territory. The Brazillian community is now the biggest in Portugal. But that may change as many Brazillians are now returning to Brasil and many Portuguese are looking for work in Brasil.

Yeah that's a shame.Venezuela used to be a popular emigration destination for Portuguese. Not anymore though.
