摘要

在大流行前，亚洲基于强制迁移原则的劳动力迁移制度在很大程度上取决于跨越国界的跨国流动的便利性和低成本。在2019冠状病毒病期间，流动停滞不仅加深了临时移徙工人面临的不稳定性，也暴露了民族国家临时移徙的不可持续性。与此同时，大流行提供了一个机会，可以重新配置临时移徙，并使其朝着更可持续和更公平的方向发展。这可能涉及提供更长期的签证和合同以及获得居留身份的选择性途径，以减少“流失”，将移民工人纳入国家医疗安全网，以改善移民福利和社会复原力，以及仔细地重新校准使用自动化和技术替代品来取代移民劳动力。

Is the temporary migration regime in Asia future-ready?

ABSTRACT In pre-pandemic times, the labour migration regime in Asia based on principles of enforced transience is largely dependent on the ease and low cost of transnational mobility across national borders. Stalled mobility in COVID-19 times has both deepened the precarity that transient migrant workers face and also laid bare the unsustainability of the temporary migration for nation-states. At the same time, the pandemic presents an opportunity to reconfigure and move temporary migration toward a more sustainable and equitable basis. This could involve offering visas and contracts of longer duration and selective pathways towards residency status to reduce ‘churning’, incorporating migrant workers into national healthcare safety nets to improve migrant welfare and societal resilience, and careful recalibration of using automation and technological substitutes to replace migrant labour.
