  That is because in most countries in the world migrants are admitted to fill gaps in the local labour market. These can be skills gaps which the local training and education system has been unable to fill, low-status jobs that locals are unwiling to do. Migrant workers are rarely encouraged to enter situations to compete directly with local workers.
