Abstract |
This article focuses on the factors affecting the entrepreneurship of international return migrants. The quantitative methodology was used, with the analytical unit at the individual level. The sample included 500 international return migrants in the Northeast of Thailand, for those who had worked abroad for more than 6 months and, at the time of the study, had returned to stay at the place of origin for over 6 months but not over 7 years. Data were collected in Chaiyaphum Province, Northeast Thailand, using the interview schedule validated by experts with a reliability of 0.913. Descriptive statistics and multiple regression analyses were conducted. The results showed that most of the international return migrants were male (60.4%), 38.8% were aged 35–44 years, more than half of them completed secondary education, and many had migrated to work abroad more than once. The last migration abroad of the majority was for a period of 4-6 years. Most migrated legally and remit around USD470-780 per month. More than 50.0% of return migrants adhere to high levels of entrepreneurship, both as agricultural entrepreneurs and business entrepreneurs. The factors affecting the entrepreneurship of international return migrants were: number of years of education, number of times they immigrated abroad, legal migration, self-esteem, household support, and transformations in production patterns and community life. All of the independent variables could explain the variation in entrepreneurship at 60.2% (R2=0.602). |
