Border

        In the article (" International Migration ", Page 33-38), the author Kose said" There is still a significant global' digital divide', which is the term given to the gap in access to information resources that exists between poor and rich countries".

        Reading this made me think about the discrepancy between poor and rich countries, and there is a complex boundary between them. It is difficult for people in poor countries to across the national border to entry rich countries. Many people died when they tried to cross the border to entry rich countries illegally. For example, on Friday, June 23, 2000, 58 Chinese illegal immigrants who died in the back of a lorry bound for the UK desperatery tried to raise the alarm as their oxygen suply ran out. In order to improve the quality of the life, many people in poor countries choose irregular migration to rich countries, though they may face the risk of loosing their life. International migration has never stopped in human beings' history although the style and number of international migration have been changing.

        As a result, international migration's political influence is very complex, which even is over people's imagination. Sometimes, the problems that come from migration even are more than benefits from it. For instance, illegal migration has made some countries hardly protect their border and independence. Sequently, illegal migration's issue has become a prominent problem in tradional security domain, so sovereign states have to treat it seriously. Nowdays, international migration's issue is so closed to our life, so we should know about it and face it.
