Chinese migrants: Their views on the work, education, and living conditions in Russia

This paper discusses the data of a survey of Chinese migrant workers conducted in Moscow and a number of the Far East cities in 2007. The analysis has shown that Russia is a highly appealing country to the economically active population of China. However, this does not mean that Russia need not be seriously concerned about the use of this workforce. A part of Chinese youth is interested in studying in Russia, but these can hardly become a source of qualified staff for Russia.
