There is no such restriction in Germany like you mentioned (quote): "Some advanced countries like Germany do not allow any graduate to leave the country after graduation at least for two years, graduates have to serve their mother land first."

Everyone can stay or leave the country as is normal in a free democratic country.

Fact is that in Germany, the unemployment rate is so low, and the job opportunities are various and attractive, that no-one feels driven to leave, at least not for job reasons. We also have to note that education is free of cost from primary school to university, and government schools/universities are the rule as they are good and quality-driven. Private academic institutions where there are fees don't play a significant role. Also, the parental pressure to go 'abroad' for work, like in India, is non-existent whereas many Indian parents also have the enhancement of social status in mind. That is one of the problems!

 

Please don't spread such misinformation here!

The talented and skillful youths from developing (in fact, underdeveloped) countries migrate to advanced countries due to such various reasons as:

1. Lack of facilities, opportunities and good and fair governance.
2, Employment paucity with no lucrative pay packages.
3. Job environment and management narrow attitude.
4. Political, social and economical climate.
5. Lucrative packages, comfortable and quality life in advanced countries.
7. Facilities, positive academic climate and world famous teachers and guides in foreign institutes.
8. The academic assessment mostly is fair and rigorous giving international status.
9. Lack of patriotism, love for motherland and integrity, etc., etc.

The youths are nurtured in their home lands and this semi-finished quality goods are absorbed in foreign universities. The selection to universities is critical and only value adding students are screened for entering into advanced countries. Advanced countries lack huge population. Allowing other students to enter into the foreign universities has got two major advantages:

1. Huge foreign exchange is earned by advanced countries. Chinese and Indian students form the major flow into advanced countries mostly US, Australia, UK, in the order given. Can you imagine the outflow of money
from the pockets of Indian parents into advanced countries?

2. The semi-finished goods are finished in advanced countries and put to their national development paying them sumptuously, providing them appealing quality life, etc. Is it not a good business?

Though we consider this migration as "Brain-Drain" which is true, some of our leaders term it as "Brain-Bank"! One can make deposits in advanced countries but no permission to withdraw!

Some advanced countries like Germany do not allow any graduate to leave the country after graduation at least for two years, graduates have to serve their mother land first. Even in India, there are many families the youths of which spend 1-2 years as RSS Prachrak first and then join the mundane world. One will find many officers in Indian governance who were "Prachakak".

I remember that at the time of seeking admission in 1962 for an engineering programme in a Govt. College (that time there were no private education providers), I had to execute a bond to the effect that I would serve the Govt for two years after graduation. But never implemented! In India we regard degree as a "private good" and not as "public good". We follow democracy with Indian style, blended with the ideal concepts of globalization, Human Rights, right to freedom of speech, expression, travel, etc.

Is it possible under this environment to enact like Germany? Can we stop brain-drain?
