The statistics of the Department of Foreign Employment show that the number of people going abroad with work permits for foreign employment in the financial year 079/80 is more than 771 thousand. More than twice this number of Nepali labor force has gone to India and other countries to do informal unorganized work. Eight hundred and eight thousand youths left Nepal in search of employment in 2023. In the same year, 1 lakh 8 thousand 542 students left with a study permit.

Human physical or cultural development is the search for opportunity and its result. Since the beginning of time, man has not settled down and will not settle down anywhere. Young and economically active human resources cannot be settled in the country only by calls and requests, but they can be bound by opportunities.

The Nepali new generation is somewhat familiar with the development made by the world. He also wants to taste that opportunity. In recent times, there have been extensive changes in production methods and livelihoods. Agriculture kept people permanently settled in one place until at least one crop was harvested (6 months). Today, the generation that is getting used to celebrating the 'weekend' (weekend) with a weekly salary is not even in a position to wait for the results after taking the exam, they are ready to go abroad. 

Opportunity, migration, migration are especially international issues. In today's global market, people have become 'commodities'. The country imports and exports goods according to its needs. Open market has made such import, export more easy and natural. Britain needed nurses, imported from Nepal. Being unrelated to their magnetic element (pull factor), no person can say they live in Nepal.  The government is the prime agent for creating

opportunities. With the support of the government, the private sector, the young generation, the intelligentsia and the experienced class create opportunities. It is not possible for Nepal to survive in an open and competitive market by investing in manufacturing industry. Therefore, investments in safe sectors like tourism, water resources and herbs can be secured, which will generate employment and income and prevent youth migration. Nepal can invest in the service sector rather than in production and for that, it can provide opportunities such as uninterrupted loans, grants, collective loans and loans to the youth. Services like Din Pathao and Foodmandu were never envisioned.

Today these are popular, providing employment to the youth. Such services are still neglected by the government. Professional security is not provided. Similarly, new services can be started. 'Motel' could be another example. Hotel culture can be taken to the mainstream. If 75 percent of families can be brought to hotel meals by providing hotel services at reasonable prices, how many youths will get employment? Information technology work can be done by Nepali people at home and can attract the world market. 

The amount invested in agriculture or service sector, its time, labor value can be brought to the investment. Under no circumstances will the investment (money, time, labor cost) sink, it must be convinced that it is as safe as the salary. An investment environment should be created by providing non-interest-bearing collective and conditional grants, loans and incentives. Not only policies, but also programs are needed. 

The youth exodus cannot be stopped until the state clarifies under what conditions and at what age it will provide social security to the economically active, demographic dividend-paying class. For the social security of the labor force's family and children, the government should announce that such social security will be given to those who earn so much and pay so much tax. If the son pays taxes to the country but does not receive treatment when the father is sick, no youth will live in Nepal. If you go abroad and work for 25 years, you can spend your last days in a happy way, but if there is no such opportunity in Nepal, the migration will not stop.
