In one word - opportunity. That's why the middle class is growing and growing. The government here has been instrumental in improving the economy and creating opportunities for people. Something that might interest you - the government teams up with aid agencies to offer Indonesians the opportunity to study abroad for advanced degrees. Do those people stay in the countries they go to? That's always a risk. But Canada did a study and found that the return rate of Indonesians who studied in Canada for an advanced degree was 100%. They also found that for every dollar Canada invested in the aid program, they got a return of $4 from the Indonesians who were studying there. Maybe I should write a post about this!!

Oh my word! A government that actually does what it is meant to do. Do you have any idea of how foreign of a concept an actively positive government is in most parts of the world? This is truly amazing. I'm genuinely pleasantly shocked right now.
Those people really love their country and wish to see it thrive. I'm not surprised that 100% of them go back.
This is such an interesting topic. You should definitely write about it.
