Book synopsis

This project offers an understanding of the transient migration experience through communication and entertainment media. It examines the role played by digital technologies in the migration experience, and uncovers how the combined wider field of entertainment media (e.g. films, television shows and music) are vital and helpful platforms that positively aid the migration experience through self and communal empowerment. This book specifically looks at the upwardly mobile middle class transient migrants working in two of the Asia-Pacific's most desirable transient migration destinations - Australia and Singapore. It considers identities transient migrants maintain and create while overseas and the strategies they use to cope with life in transience.§§
