S. Korea Denies Report of Plan to Import 100,000 Malawi Workers

http://www.businessweek.com/news/2013-05-31/s-dot-korea-denies-report-of-plan-to-import-100-000-malawi-workers

It's not happening now, or it never was in the first place. Weird.


What I'm thinking happened is that the program calls for a much smaller number of workers over a set period of time, probably (key phrase 'up to') 6,800 a year or so over 15 years.

Politician or news agency on either side (or independent) trying to make a story turns it into 100,000.


Yeah, or it could be "up to 100,000" followed by "We'll see."


The logistics involved dictate that 100,000 is HIGHLY unlikely. To move 100,000 people across the world requires MASSIVE logistics investment.


Plus, it involves many employers, locations, and seasonal work.
