Of Garinda's (Indian village) 4,500 people, about 700 are employed in the Gulf, most in Dubai in the United Arab Emirates, more than 1,000 miles away. Finding the work is relatively easy - Indian newspapers carry ads for Gulf jobs and brokers come searching for able-bodied men. The brokers usually arrange the travel to the Gulf - securing visas and tickets and shepherding villagers onto what for many is their first plane ride.
Garinda is only one of the hundreds similar examples.

Indian economy is now developing, maybe not as fast as the Chinese one, but still in five years emmigration will decrease.
