Giving incentives to talented, highly-qualified Mauritians to go back and contribute would be a start. Paying them salaries on a par with those lavished on the (so-called) foreign consultants that Mauritius is continuously calling upon to help set-up new schemes (IT, business, and other fields) is a must. At least some of that money would make its way back to Mauritius and, morever, these Mauritians are quite likely to go beyond the call of duty to get things right (and not be mere mercenaries after a quick buck and a good tan!). My two cents worth.

Lack of skilled workers has led to a lack of skilled jobs. There are tons of Mauritian students studying abroad. Even if they all came back, it would be unlikely for them to find jobs in their fields. More ofthen than not, they would be forced to accept jobs that they are over-qualified for.

Even if you are lucky to find a job, it would not match the foreign level of pay or quality of life.

Same is true in N.america. Almost everone has a BA/B.Com/B.Sc so it is hard to find jobs. You either have to continue your education or get polytechnic training.

In a perfect world, the cybercite is a good idea and helps to solve some of these problems. As foreign companies build offices, Univ. of Mauritius and other institutions can offer the programs that MATCH education with work skills.

A lot of the consulting fees that they pay are not equivalent to what can be earned in America/Europe and all they do is attract underqualified Indians.

Another issue: all of the foreigners (chinese, sri lanka, indians) working in the zone franche while Mauritians are fired, leading to higher unemployment/chomage?

my views on this is that the foreigners take less money than mauritians do.

This is orthogonal to the argument I feel. There's always somewhere where one might be paid more (in all likelihood). As long as it's a match with what the (possibly underqualified) "consultants" are getting, then some people will feel like going back as the money will be more than adequate for living comfortably in Mauritius while feeling valued by one's motherland.

You are right, but there is no financial benefit of doing so. There are, however, other benefits (paying a Mauritian will ensure that the fees earned are spent in Mtian economy, while an expatriate will take the money home).

As the brain drain gets to be a bigger problem, I am sure that we will see this happen. But we have not reached this point yet.
