KlappentextThis edited volume provides a comprehensive overview of rural-urban migration in Vietnam. It addresses a wide range of important topics, including Vietnam´s household registration system (ho khau), migration trends, remittance behaviour and social networking. In addition, it examines migrants´ earnings, their children´s schooling, housing issues and their families´ consumption behaviour in their destination cities.The book is mainly based on new data from the Australian National University's Study of Rural-Urban Migration in Vietnam with Insights from China and Indonesia´ (VRUM) project, which identifies migrants from the large-scale, representative Vietnam Household Living Standards Survey´ 2012 (VHLSS2012). In addition to the data from the VRUM project, the book draws on other widely used data sources to provide a comprehensive picture of rural-urban migrants in Vietnam.By highlighting the issues and challenges brought about by the large-scale rural-urban migration in Vietnam, the book helps researchers and policymakers more effectively formulate policies to respond to those challenges. Moreover, Vietnam´s experience can serve as lessons learnt to other transitional/developing countries.
