The migration of qualified people from Arab countries to America, Canada, Australia as well as many Western countries has increased. This migration threatens the development and progress of Arab societies. Those immigrants prefer to head to the advanced couturiers because the essentials of social, economic, and scientific development are available. Additionally, these countries enjoy high status in the fields of medicine, science, and technology.
