Dr. Federico Macaranas discussses how poor nations cope with the challenges of globalization by using their comparative advantage in human resources to serve the needs of the developed industrial world.

He uses the exodus of Philippine health professionals as a case study to show the ill effects of the brain drain on poor countries.
