More than 151,000 overseas nationals from outside European Union were granted permission to work which is almost four times the level when Labor took power in 1997. This was announced 151,635 work visa applications were granted between December 2007 and November last year.

The greatest numbers of visas were issued to Indians - 49,950, followed by Americans - 28,835 and then Chinese - 8,090 to work in the UK.

Many  migrants were granted visas in categories that allow them to remain in the UK for up to five years. At the end of five years as long as they meet the requirements migrants can then apply for Permanent Residency.

The Home Office while commenting on Immigration trends of 2008 said, "Over 90 per cent of people working in this country are UK citizens and their rate of employment has remained stable. But when it comes to immigration, in difficult economic times we need a tough system that offers British workers the first crack of the whip for British jobs."

"That's why we're using the flexibility that the new Points Based System allows to force employers to offer British jobs through Job Centre plus before recruiting foreign workers. And across Government we're working together to get people the skills needed for these jobs to boost their chances even further."

As an affluent, high-tech industrial society in the trillion-dollar class, Canada resembles the US in its market-oriented economic system, pattern of production, and affluent living standards. Since World War II, the impressive growth of the manufacturing, mining, and service sectors has transformed the nation from a largely rural economy into one primarily industrial and urban. The 1989 US-Canada Free Trade Agreement (FTA) and the 1994 North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) (which includes Mexico) touched off a dramatic increase in trade and economic integration with the US, its principle trading partner. Canada enjoys a substantial trade surplus with the US, which absorbs nearly 80% of Canadian exports each year. Canada is the US's largest foreign supplier of energy, including oil, gas, uranium, and electric power. Given its great natural resources, skilled labor force, and modern capital plant, Canada has enjoyed solid economic growth, and prudent fiscal management has produced consecutive balanced budgets from 1997 to 2007. In 2008, growth slowed sharply as a result of the global economic downturn, US housing slump, plunging US car sales, and drop in world commodity prices. Public finances, too, are set to deteriorate for the first time in a decade. Tight global credit conditions have further restrained business and housing investment, despite the conservative lending practices and strong capitalization that made Canada's major banks among the strongest in the world.

After the Federation of Russia, the Ukrainian Republic was the most important component of the former Soviet Union, producing four times the agricultural output of the next ranking Republic in the USSR. It’s fertile black soil generated more than ¼th of the Soviet agricultural output and its farms provided substantial quantity of meat, milk, grain to other Republics. Shortly after independence was ratified in December 1991, the Ukrainian Government liberalized the procedure and erected a legal frame work for privatization. Due to resistance to change, output by 1999 had fallen to less than 40% of 1991 level. Significant changes have occurred in the agricultural sector since 2000. Almost 15100 collective and state farms have been transformed into new farms of agricultural enterprises and the new private corporate farms have emerged. Due to restructuring of agriculture sector and the changes in agricultural land use nearly 2 million hectares of arable land, have become fallow or abandoned land.

Ukraine’s agriculture sector has a potential to make the country food basket of the world but investment is needed for replacing outdated machinery or reclaiming the agricultural land which has become fallow. As private individual farms having average size of 77 hectares have come into existence, the Indian farmers who have been responsible for developing canal colonies in Layalpur District (now Faizlabad in Pakistan) before independence and Tarai area in Utrrakhand (erstwhile Uttarpradesh) have an opportunity to make investment in Ukrainian agricultural sector and generate GDP for that country and substantial income for themselves. To assist the Indian farmers and business persons to get optimum returns on investment, Worldwide Immigration Consultancy Group has signed MOU with PRS Associates Ltd., Kyiv Ukraine. Accordingly the newly formed consortium, they would be helping the farmers and business persons to get a Limited Liability Company registered in Ukraine, transfer funds to Ukraine so that the company could take fertile agricultural land on lease and produce crops like winter wheat, sunflower seeds, mustard beat root or develop orchards in that country. As the soil is very fertile and our farmers can hope to get as much as land on lease as they want, it is rare opportunity for the farmers and business persons to invest in Ukraine and thereby “become multinational”.

“Indian Farmers are doing wonders in USA, Canada & Australia and why not in Ukraine. With the investment of Rs.50 lacs one can get a 125 acres (50 hectares) of fertile and irrigable land on cheap prices for 3-5 years lease” said Col Sandhu. Ukraine’s population growth being low thus hard working Indian farmers can take full advantage of this favourable scenario.

The maple leaf nation is all geared to welcome business investors with open arms as the latest provisions of an all time aggressive current immigration policy envisage a huge inflow of investment triggered immigration to contribute to a blossoming Canadian economy. While Indian venture capitalists and investors form a potentially major target group in this immigration category, people from various sectors like industrialists, farmers, entrepreneurs, real estate agents and commission agents with considerable investment potential are all welcomed.

While shedding light upon the latest avenues available for immigration aspirants with investing capacity, Lt Col B S Sandhu (Retd), CMD, World Wide Immigration Consultancy Services Limited said that fast track permanent residency opportunities for all these sections have enhanced manifold in the present scenario. Settled immigrants have a golden chance to call their friends and relatives with legally obtained net worth to permanently settle in Canada, pointed out Col Sandhu. By investing Rs 50 lakhs under the Investor Programme, anyone with a legally accounted for financial history can acquire a permanent residency status in Canada in a matter of just 6-12 months.

Under the Investor Program, informed Col Sandhu, an investor or a prospective immigrant, up to 60 years of age, has to demonstrate business experience and a legally obtained net worth of $8,00,000 (Canadian). He or she should be resourceful enough to invest $4,00,000 (Canadian) which is refundable after 5 years or simply pay a non refundable investment capital of up to $1,20,000 to $1,35,000(Canadian) which is to be supplemented by arranging remaining finances through a finance company. The most important part, however, is no requirement of language clearance tests like IELTS as required in other categories and an exceptionally speedy processing with an interview call within 5-6 months of applying, added Col Sandhu.

Col Sandhu remarked that the business immigration is the latest rage which is taking the immigration scenario by storm. Hundreds of enthusiastic investors from across the world have already applied under business investment category and the coming few months will even see maturity in majority of cases being processed by WWICS, concluded Col Sandhu. .

Immigrants from Asia and India set to gain from Canadian labour scarcity
Chandigarh, June : A booming economy and jobs aplenty in Canada is what is beckoning more and more skilled professionals worldwide to the world’s most preferred destination. And with new immigration friendly provisions, as envisaged in budgetary proposals introduced recently by Canadian government, in offing, things are going to get even better for aspiring international workers and professionals. This was asserted by immigration expert Lt Col (Retd.) B S Sandhu, Chairman and Managing Director, World Wide Immigration and Consultancy Services limited, WWICS, in a press statement released here today.

Lt Col Sandhu informed that Canada is facing an acute crunch of workers and professionals which is all set grow to an even formidable scale in the coming decade or so, a scenario which has Canadian government literally on verge of launching a massive movement, if not a campaign to boost immigration and intake of workers. Spelling the gravity of situation, Lt Col Sandhu quoted Canada’s Conservative strategists as saying that the nation is virtually on verge of an economic time bomb which amplifies the actual severity of labour shortage in Canada. Canadian workforce which has grown by a phenomenal 200% in the last 50 years, informed Lt Col Sandhu, is set to stagnate and dwindle as economic forecasters foresee an abysmally lower 11% growth in next 50 years. The specter is further accentuated when the authentic estimates, as provided by Canadian Human Resources Minister Monte Solberg are tabulated for future, felt Col Sandhu. Canadian provinces like British Columbia will fall short of 3.50 lakh workers in coming 12 years while Alberta will need 1,00,000 more work force over next decade. Ontario will need a whopping 5.60 lakh work force in next couple of decades while labour need of Quebec alone in next 8 years is 1.3 million.

Lt Col Sandhu asserted that Canadian labour market has been defying market forecasters in the last three years. Even a relatively expensive work force in Canada is in a high demand. A hindsight analysis, said Col Sandhu, shows that despite 1,13,000 job cuts in manufacturing sector in last 12 months, a whopping 3,25,000 new jobs have been created. This is just a tip of the iceberg so far as employment requirements of Canada are concerned.

Interestingly, points out Lt Col Sandhu, that immigration and labour sectors have become a contentious rallying point amongst Canadian political parties who are all out for taking aggressive measures to enhance immigration and meet the labor needs of a growing Canadian economy. This only signifies that Asians, especially Indians, with their superior English speaking skills and better track record, stand a much better chance to gain their rightful position in Canadian scheme of things which are favourable for immigrants with opportunities abound, concluded Lt Col Sandhu..

Real Estate investment opportunity in Dubai, WWICS shows the way
Chandigarh, May 3: Having relocating and resettling millions of Asians worldwide, the global leader in immigration and resettlement industry, World Wide Immigration Consultancy Services Ltd. is now proving out to be a major force in investment and business activity overseas, especially in Dubai.

While disclosing this at a special presentation for elite investors keen to invest in viable and profitable investment opportunities in Dubai, Lt Col (Retd) B S Sandhu, CMD, WWICS, said that the global firm is providing expert consultancy on investment in Middle East, especially Dubai which is the hub of the most dynamic growth in the real estate sector.

While sharing the major aspects of phenomenal growth in real estate sector in Dubai, Col Sandhu asserted that last few years have seen an unmatched potential in real estate investment in Dubai which is gateway to Asia and Europe due to its strategic location. Rapidly emerging as the hub of all time major investment of late, Dubai has seen a whopping investment and even better profits in the recent past, a trend which is yet to continue for quite some time. The encouraging picture, added Col Sandhu, can be best judged from the fact that the profits margins are going considerably up and some prized real estate zones are churning profits as higher as 50% to 60% of the investment per annum.

Attributing this phenomenal growth to superior infrastructure, advanced networks of roads and connectivity via airlines, Col Sandhu informed that the much advanced Dubai is a potential investment destination for many Indians who are eyeing the region. With 120 shipping lines and over 100 airlines connecting 140 global destinations, the infrastructural and geographical advantage of Dubai coupled with a fast growing economy at 8% per annum, dynamic business environment supported by investor friendly laws and regulations along with a cosmopolitan culture makes Dubai a truly dream destination for any venture capitalist or investor. The average returns on investments in Dubai, said Col Sandhu, vary from 10% to 20% depending on investment stages i.e. pre launch, launch and post launch stage.

Pinpointing the major zones with high return potential on investments in Dubai, Col Sandhu, informed that Sheikh Zayed Road, Dubai Land, Dubai waterfront, Jumeirah Village South, Dubai Sports City, Emirates Road, International city and other surrounding areas are highly sought after and offer a real prospective investment vista for global investors. A population of 2 million in Dubai needs additional 50,000 residential units per annum which are simply amazing for the expatriates who are now eligible to take ownership of freehold property and earn additional benefits as well. Towers for commercial and retail space, residential apartments and luxury villas are core segments for real estate investment in Dubai, asserted Lt Col Sandhu.

With over 12 years of operations in Middle East, WWICS, added Col Sandhu, has been functioning from its dedicated offices in Abu Dhabi, Sharjah and Dubai. Our Dubai office is providing expert and comprehensive service for investment related consultancy right from stage one, asserted Col Sandhu. Guidance on key investment zones, procedure to enter the market, support mechanisms and vital information and services related to registration, sale and purchase, resale, mortgaging and other allied functions are performed to utmost perfection, reiterated Col Sandhu.

Already a number of clients have made huge profits from earlier deals even as we help in arranging mortgage and re-sale of properties by arranging customers through network of realtors, brokers and new investors. Sharing vital information regarding the permissible limits for investment, Col Sandhu, informed that an Indian resident can transfer $200, 000 for overseas investment through banking channels as per RBI guidelines which make the prospect of investing and earning in Dubai even easier. Moreover, all the profits would be tax-free. Col Sandhu announced prospective investors to avail the First Guided Tours to Dubai being organized on 14th May for potential investors.

WWICS Group was delighted to welcome Mr. Geoff Provest, MP, New South Wales, Australia to WWICS Asian Headquarter in conjunction with PHD Chamber of Commerce & Industry who visited WIWCS Asian Headquarters on 1st Oct., 2008.

He emplhasiszed the need of introducing Australian courses through tie-ups to promote Australian Education in India. He also had lunch with the CIIS staff and faculty. .

As the Pakistani Golfers finished their rounds on the course they took a break and congregated to join WWICS at lunch. A high powered team of Pakistani Golfers who are in the city to participate in the 107th LG Indian Open Amateur spend their day with WWICS management & staff as they were invited over lunch at PCA stadium here today.

A warm welcome was given to a 38-member delegate from Pakistan by WWICS senior management especially Lt. Col. B.S. Sandhu (Retd.), CMD WWICS Group, Devinder Sandhu and Parvinder Sandhu, Sr. Directors, WWICS Group along with the Head of the Departments.

Amateur golfers shared their wonderful golfing experiences in India. For quite a number of them, it was their first visit to Chandigarh. Col. Sandhu expressed his happiness to see the way relations are improving between Pakistani & Indian players. After Cricket, Golf has also taken another step forward to improve the ties between the two neighbors.

Pakistani Golfers were ecstatic to learn from Col. Sandhu about the bountiful immigration & investment opportunities in the West & down under Australia. They were taken by surprise when they came to know that Pakistan is among the top source countries for immigration to Canada after China, India and Philippines. Every year nearly 12,500 people immigrate to Canada as Permanent Residents and nearly 30,753 Indian make Canada their home.

The Golfers were keen to discover the opportunities in Canada, Australia & Europe. Col. Sandhu highlighted the various gamuts of opportunities in developed economies of Canada, Australia and Pakistan and talked about the Golfing standards in these countries.

Since they were keen to learn more about the opportunities prevalent in these countries, Col. Sandhu gave a presentation profiling global scenario on the investment opportunities in these countries. Col. Sandhu said, “Pakistanis have integrated well into Canadian society, partly due to the Canadian Government's policies and assistance given to all immigrants settling in the country. Generally speaking, Pakistanis are known to assimilate into Canadian culture more easily than many other immigrant groups due to fewer language barriers; English is widely spoken in Pakistan among professional classes. As well they usually have more educational credentials, and come from a similar diverse and tolerant society.”

“They have brought exquisite Pakistani cuisine to Canada and it has been established as one of the most popular cuisines in the country with hundreds of Pakistani restaurants in all major city of Canada”, he chipped in. “Canada as well as Australia offers high standard of living with excellent golfing standards. Talking about the prospects of Pakistani immigrants in these countries, he said that Most Pakistani work as professionals or in skilled trades. Those who went to Canada / Australia from Pakistan via East Africa or the Gulf are more likely involved in business. A number of Pakistanis are also traders and are primarily involved in exporting & importing goods to and from Pakistan. A small number of them own factories in Pakistan and are engaged in importing Pakistani manufactures. Others have established textile mills in British Columbia-Canada and Ontario-Canada and Canberra-Australia and are involved in multinational trade” said Col. Sandhu.

The Pakistani Golfers enjoyed lunch hosted by WWICS at PCA, Mohali as they got nostalgic with the India-Pakistans game of Cricket at PCA.

WWICS is highly pro-active with Charitable Associations. Taking another step towards Humanity, WWICS plans to support Sahayta Charitable Society which is actively engaged in looking after the cancer patients. WWICS has been associated with Helpage India for the last over six years. Besides that WWICS under Dasmesh Educational Society (Regd.) is running a vocational school for the rural girls in making them self reliant and confident by teaching them stitching & knitting and other vocational courses free of cost. So far more than 800 girls have been fully trained and are competent to run their own boutiques. Many trained girls of our school have opened their tailoring shops and have started earning handsomely. The school was set up in the year 1997 and since then all Kandi village girls have taken full advantage of this.
Sahayta Cancer Sahyog, a non-profit organization based in India, provides holistic (financial, emotional and social) support to people afflicted with cancer.

Sahayta Members gave a talk to create awareness about the benefits of early detection of cancer to all WWICS staff at 5.00 PM on 22nd Sept., 2008 at WWICS Headquarter. Such talks programs are organized regularly by Sahayta to educate the public that if detected early cancer can be cured or at least controlled for quite some time. More affected by this disease are females because of this reproductive organs which are susceptible to such diseases. They thus need to be vigilant of this disease for early detection.

On the occasion Col. Sandhu, CMD, WWICS Group said “Sahayta has made a deep and lasting impression on me as I have seen my wife fighting a courageous battle with this relentless disease. The emotional turmoil, the stress and strain, the patient goes through, before and during the treatment, takes heavy toll on the patient as well as his/her family. For years, Mr. Ranjeet Sandhu underwent painful cancer treatments and surgeries. Despite all medical efforts, she lost her battle. So I thought of doing something to help ease the suffering of other Cancer survivors.”

Col. Sandhu donated Rs. 25,000/- in the memory of Late Mrs. Ranjit Kaur Sandhu who passed away due to Cancer in the year 2006. “We wish to give Financial Support to provide cancer drugs to needy patients. Helping Cancer patients is a highly noble cause, which requires a lot of support from outside in terms of monetary donations and voluntary services”, he added.
