Migrants settling into a new country

Settling in a new country is often an alienating process for many immigrants; they

are forced to disconnect with their social ties and norms in the home country,

leaving much of their social capital behind. In addition to the language problems

and cultural shock, the lack of social support often makes the situation more

difficult, further hindering the integration process. Immigrants arriving to a

foreign land often employ many strategies to overcome these obstacles and re-

accumulate their social capital.

Social capital is important in establishing roots for immigrants, whether it is

channeling local information or developing reciprocal relationships, those with

social ties and existing networks may be easier in locating the resource. Such ties

are means in which immigrants can rely on to improve their socioeconomic conditions

thorough introduction to employment opportunities and social services.


It is also possible that immigrants will be introduced to new religions and join

with these institutions. Through participating in these religious institutions.


If people do hard work that,what they are doing in Australia it easy to achive the

goal what they want.Its important that do hard work and achive your goal.
