Joe Grundy, I agree. There was something not to long ago that was more directed at these third world countries and the advice was to stay at home. It may have been a story about a guy who had the opportunity to earn more money away from home but I can't recall.
They really have no idea. Many of these people are desperate in their own country and will fall prey to all sorts of temptations. Whether that is working in the sex industry, providing massages with 'happy endings' or telemarketing and lying to potential customers or being involved in one of the many scams that occur.
People who find work overseas are usually doing it so that they can provide better for their families and this in turn helps protect their family from a lot of criminal or unethical or demeaning activities.
The organization is working hard at trying to get people in third world countries converted. The Phillipines now has a beutiful Assembly Hall on a massive amount of land, worth a pretty penny. The locals are very proud of it and would rather keep it than help the survivors of the recent disasters. Having the image of Americanisation works to their advantage, that's what these people strive for. Providing studies and meetings in english is another attraction because learning to speak english can lead to jobs that pay much more.
It is as bad as telling females to stay barefoot and pregrnant at home in the kitchen.
