Brain drain is a problem described as the process in which a country loses its most educated and talented workers to other countries through migration. What your opinion in terms of good and bad impact.
Brain drain is defined as the migration of health personnel in search of the better standard of living and quality of life, higher salaries, access to advanced technology and more stable political conditions in different places worldwide. This migration of health professionals for better opportunities, both within countries and across international borders, is of growing concern worldwide because of its impact on health systems in developing countries.
In addition to the obvious consequences - the loss of talented youth (who stays at home - no need to explain ...), this means that developing countries sponsor the economies of developed countries.
It negatively affect a country, resulting in insufficient experts and professionals that can handle sensitive developmental projects such in the areas of health, engineering,, science and technology, etc.
Actually, I don't have any idea what is brain drain all about, but with the explanations provided hereof, it seems, I understood now. I support the answer of Madam Manal Hadi Kanaan and agreed too.
The problem is not that there isn't both good and bad impact from the brain drain, but that the bad outweighs the good by far. On the positive side are remittances which can significantly contribute to the sending country's foreign exchange earnings, exposure to advanced techniques and facilities, further education and specialization, and networking with other professionals. On the negative side, not all expatriate professionals send remittances back home - particularly after they become citizens or permanent residents of receiving countries, sending countries are in many instances developing nations who spend a significant portion of their limited budgets to educate and train professionals such as engineers, doctors, pharmacists and nurses only to lose them to receiving countries - leaving a void which is hard to fill. The net result is that receiving countries experience greater economic and social development at the expense of sending countries. Sending countries often have little to show for their heavy investment in human resource development. In short, the brain drain represents a parasitic relationship between receiving and sending countries.
The negative part of it is that it prolongs the suffering of the citizens. This is obvious in my country where 70% of medical doctors migrate to Europe and America thereby creating a big void in the health sector and this is due to the harsh economic situation in the country. For the positive, the migrants at least have the opportunity to provide a better life for their family.
It effects the country very much. Having said that, each country must reschedule its strategies to create better facilities for human resource management to prevent such incidents.
The departure of skilled workers can weaken developing countries, especially smaller ones, by depriving them of important skills and workforce. This can prevent or limit innovation, business growth and national development.
A brain drain stimulates education, induces remittance flows, reduces international transaction costs, and generates benefits in source countries from both returnees and the diaspora abroad.
Several common causes precipitate brain drain on the geographic level including political instability, poor quality of life, limited access to health care, and a shortage of economic opportunity. These factors prompt skilled and talented workers to leave source countries for places that offer better opportunities.
It very much affects the region. That being said, each country needs to reschedule its policies to build better human resource management facilities to avoid these occurrences.
Badly. We have the situation in Croatia. No high skilled employees to be found. We miss, for example, medical staff, which affects medical service quality.
Good for the immigrant country but bad for the migrant country
People are taking education and facility from the good institute funded by the concern government, avail fellowship, scholarship and then migrated to another country for job and getting more packages...so it is now a days common thing
Negative in many respects. Investments in their education and the effects and results of their work that were expected and are not realized in the home country are lost. A certain system of knowledge is lost according to the activities for which the departing staff are educated. Quality, new ideas, creativity are lost and everything that is necessary for the development and prosperity of the losing countries.

I think so, all talented guys do not like to stay in overseas instead of his motherland. The brain drain problem is concerned, when he did not get the privileges of his deserve position and honor of his own country then he stays there. Definitely it is a great loss of any country.
well, brain drain persists when skilled, talented, innovative, and seekers of greener pasture individual migrated to other countries. It impacted so much to country's labor/human resources in increasing the GDP and even credit ratings of a certain country when not prevented and/or a government will not create more opportunities, start up capitals with low interest rates for small and medium enterprises and encourage businesses across the globe to invest in a certain country. Kill corruptions, intensify security (both in naval, air and land ) forces in catching drug perpetrators, manufacturers, and users, and increase taxes on alcoholic beverages, cigarettes, real states and the like and purposely use all these things in making a country progressive. Surely, once people is satisfied and delighted of services, privileges and opportunities offered by a government brain drain has no space in a country anymore.
......Moreover, the money migrants sent back are spent more in investments such as education, health and housing, rather than on food and other goods. Disadvantages Due to the influence of brain drain, the investment in higher education is lost as the highly educated person leaves India and becomes an asset to other country.

— Provide attractive salaries to highly qualified people on the basis of their qualifications and experience. — Improve the quality of our universities and bring them at par with universities in Europe and America. — Provide adequate research facilities. — Do away with the quota system at once if not done till now.
A nation spends funds to train professionals who later on leave the country. This is a bad impact even worse for a huge number migrating for greener pasture.
The effective brain drain exceeds the income-maximizing level in the vast majority of developing countries, especially in sub-Saharan Africa, Central America, and small countries.
This is exactly what we're dealing with in the country right now. As well-educated and highly skilled people continue to leave the country, the less fortunate people with comparable intellectual capacity, who cannot simply afford to leave the country, are left with an endless torrent of financial and social problems. They struggle to make ends meet, and in doing so, give up on having their own family. In contrast, individuals with a lower IQ, who just happen to have lower standards and are not properly educated, willingly or unknowingly become parents to children of lesser intellectual capacity. And the vicious cycle continues.
Brain drain will affect a country because it loses human resources to whom the development of the country will depend on, especially in circumstances they are not returning to the home country. With the same token perhaps good when they working in better and more developed companies abroad, and then bring back new experiences to be applied in the countries of origin.
The people of every country are not indispensable for three people who fear them in matters of their world and their hereafter, and if they do not do so, they are barbaric: a pious scholar, a prince of good obedience, and a discerning and trusted doctor.
The bottom line is that brain drain is bad for the country.
The migration of highly skilled individuals is one of the most complex migratory phenomena with diverse socio-economic implications, both for the countries of origin and of destination. Europe experiences its specific patterns of such migration, most prominently the migration from the European East and South towards the North and West as well as re-migration from the West towards the East. Further, highly skilled immigration into Europe from Asia, Africa, Russia and the Middle East has gradually increased. Brain Drain is a terminus used to describe the emigration of highly skilled individuals from less developed countries towards countries with higher living standards and / or better professional-social prospects...
Several nations strengthen their efforts to fascinate and keep foreign students, which rises the risk of brain drain in the sending nations. In developing countries particularly poor countries, this transfer might restructure the skill building of the workforce, cause labor deficiencies, and affect fiscal policy, but then again it can also create remittances and other benefits from expats and returnees. Inclusively, it can be a advantage for developing countries, reliant on the country’s physical characteristics and policy aims.
Brain drain is a migration of educated and skilled people from one country to another country. The recipient country win a ready skilled employee, while the original country lose skilled one and after education and training. So the original country needs time to replace the emigrant and already loose money in education and training.
This is a very lucrative type of aid - to develop national education and at the same time to take the top layer of specialists, also there is no problem of weak graduates - they stay at home. If a developing country finances education itself - even better - the best graduates can be lured away without capital investment. It is more profitable than exporting natural resources. As a result, many developing countries sponsor the economies of developed countries - without getting anything in return.
