We all have heard this word a lot of times and even
used it in conversation and even in writing; however,
are we using this word properly? What does “brain
drain” mean?
However, the word Brain Drain is a term for the large
scale emigration of educated, talented professionals
from their home country. The emigration of these
individuals may result from a present crisis in a
nation or professionals seeking better career
opportunities and a better standard of living.
The subject of brain drain has been one of the most
asked questions in the IELTS writing section. Here’s a
sample essay discussing brain drain.

3. Working for one’s own country has been considered patriotic as one
serves his or her own countrymen. However, there are some that are
not satisfied with what they have here making them leave the country
and practice abroad. With this, a country will be experiencing brain
drain.
Nowadays, finding a job in the country, the Philippines, has been
fairly difficult. There are growing numbers of professionals but the
demands for these professionals are not enough in the Philippines.
Certain professions that are highly in demand in other countries are
scientists, engineers, accountants, medical professionals like nurses,
doctors, physical therapists, and skilled workers like butchers.
Though our country needs these professionals, the amount of job
offers are very limited that these talents are put into waste. Hence,
they choose to practice their expertise abroad.

4. If these professionals work abroad, how can these affect the country?
With every loss of professionals in the country, the supply of such
profession decreases. When the time comes where their own country
needs these profession, the problem then arises as most competitive
professionals are already out of the country working. However, the
country can gain advantage from these professionals working abroad.
They help the economy in their own little way and at the same time
providing recognition to Filipinos as one of the countries with the
most hard working individuals and highly competitive with the strict
demand overseas.
In a nut shell, in any aspect, the issue of brain drain has both
advantage and disadvantage. It can be of help as it helps the
country’s economy but can be a downside as the county loses its own
professionals.

5. For Filipinos, working abroad has been a part of their plan as soon
as they finish their degrees in the university. People have different
reasons why they would prefer working abroad than here in our
country. However, it is more on practicality. Because of everybody
wants to provide their own families with a better standard of living
where they can live a happier life, Filipinos make huge decisions on
working abroad. Since working abroad offers a very competitive
salary and better career development, Filipinos choose this career
path. Once presented with a good opportunity abroad, Filipinos are
sure to work hard on it to become success and attain satisfaction
both personally and professionally.
