ABSTRACT

This essay explores the perspectives of Macau, China youth on Employment in the Guangdong-Macau, China In-depth Cooperation Zone. For that aim, three research questions were devised. The first explored the extent to which Macau, China youth are willing/unwilling to work in the Guangdong-Macau, China In-depth Cooperation Zone. The second explored the determinants for the willingness/unwillingness to work in the Guangdong-Macau, China In-depth Cooperation Zone. Finally, the third research question inquires about the policy considerations for the Macau, China Government in light of the results of the two first research questions. We also studied the cases of Hungary and Poland in order to know more about the factors or determinants of the willingness to work in other places in these countries. Then, we analyzed the relevant data in the literature review. After that, the Macau, China government can make suitable policies targeted at Macau, China youth according to the results of these data.
