Conclusion

The Filipino Migrants Movement in the Asia Pacific has now a long and rich history that can be emulated by other regions and nationalities worldwide. The experiences enumerated in the case studies of three divergent countries, one with a liberal political climate, another with majority of the migrants being undocumented and the last one a place so restrictive politically, only show that it is possible to create a migrant movement in any country.

This can be done as long as there is a clear orientation guiding migrant organizers which not only defines the conditions of the sector being organized but the strategy and approaches needed to effectively create such a movement. Organizers must also be properly equipped the right orientation and be keen in adopting to different conditions and situations for them to effectively create such a movement led by the people themselves.
