The influence of migrant work on elderly care has been immense. Material change was mentioned most often by the elderly and their adult children alike, in that the former finally ‘get enough to eat and wear’. In addition, they have benefited from the availability of mobile phones and new vehicles, which allow them to keep in contact with their distant adult children, and to get around for visiting and shopping. However, as migrant work has physically separated many migrant workers and their elderly parents, it poses a threat to traditional care arrangements based on parents co-residing with one adult son and living close to other adult children.
