German opens door to Kenyan workers in labour deal
www.bbc.com
Germany agrees to ease some of its immigration laws to enable Kenyans find employment in the European's biggest economy.

Germany has agreed to open the doors to 250,000 skilled and semi-skilled Kenyan workers in a controlled and targeted labour migration deal.

Kenya is struggling with increasing difficulties in providing work and sufficient income for its young professionals, while Germany is facing a shortage of skilled labour.

Five Kenyan bus drivers have already been welcomed to Flensburg, in the north of Germany, in a pilot project.

Migration agreements are a central pillar in the German government’s efforts to curb immigration.

    Naaah, not really. I don’t know where this suddenly came from but in the last couple of weeks our migration politics seem to develop into a really bad direction as well.

      Yeah people are giving us way too much credit on this one, the whole country is going nuts closing our borders just to do something while my daily life is the same now as it was 1,2,5,10 years ago.
