This paper examines the experience of Thailand and her neighboring countries, particularly Cambodia and Lao PDR, on bilateral employment agreements. It first gives a brief history and description of the economic and institutional environment under which these bilateral agreements – in the form of Memorandum of Understanding (MOUs) – were forged, proceeds to summarize the lessons learned from the implementation of the MOUs, and finally makes recommendations for future bilateral negotiations.

ILO - 2008. The ILO
Multilateral Framework on Labour Migration advocates ‘integrating and mainstreaming labour migration in national employment, labour market and development policy’ in its Guideline 15.1. While there has been considerable work on migration and development linkages, particularly on remittances, there has been less research on how migration issues can be integrated into development planning. The paper by Professor Robert Lucas addresses this important aspect of the migration-development nexus.
