Net migration rate: 0 migrant(s)/1,000 population (2012 est.)
Definition: This entry includes the figure for the difference
between the number of persons entering and leaving a country
during the year per 1,000 persons (based on midyear population).
An excess of persons entering the country is referred to as net
immigration (e.g., 3.56 migrants/1,000 population); an excess of
persons leaving the country as net emigration (e.g., -9.26
migrants/1,000 population). The net migration rate indicates the
contribution of migration to the overall level of population
change. High levels of migration can cause problems such as
increasing unemployment and potential ethnic strife (if people
are coming in) or a reduction in the labor force, perhaps in
certain key sectors (if people are leaving). Source: CIA World
