The COVID-19 pandemic has impacted about 1 billion migrants (both
international and domestic) in a variety of ways, and this book
demonstrates how COVID-19 has widened the gaps between citizens,
non-migrant and migrant populations in terms of income, job
retention, freedom of movement, vaccine etc.While there is an
emerging literature studying the impacts of COVID-19 on migration,
the situation in Southeast Asia has not received much scholarly
attention. This book fills the literature gap by studying the
experiences of migrants and citizens in Brunei, Malaysia and
Singapore and highlighting how the pandemic has exacerbated
inequalities between and within the groups. These three countries
are studied due to their high reliance of migrants in key economic
sectors. Findings in this volume are derived from a qualitative
approach, complemented by secondary data sources.This book is
appropriate for undergraduate and postgraduate students of
population studies, epidemiology, political science, public policy
and administration, international relations, anthropology,
psychology, sociology, and migration and refugee studies. Migration
and labour scholars benefit from the nuanced comprehension about
how a pandemic could cause a schism between migrants and the
population at large. Policymakers may consider the proposed
recommendations in the book to improve the migration situation.
