Immigration - December 2007

In my line of work, I do see a lot many exception to this rule.

By definition, an expat is a leisure tourist who spends dollars in the third world paradise. An immigrant is a person who legally migrates to another country because of his job skills/marriage arrangements.

So all those British and American English schoolteachers "working" in Thailand, China, Korea, Japan are "expats" and a tourist from a third-world country still an "immigrant".

Isn't this the last bastion of racism we don't want to address in Western society?
