The outflow of money by foreign workers usually brings benefits to the exporting countries compared to the importing countries (Ajis, et al., 2014). Taylor et al., (1996) added that direct effects from the consequences of money outflow will increase fund and source of income as well as generate economic development especially for sending countries.

Thus this study is attempted to discuss on the impact of remittances by foreign workers on economic growth and economic development focusing onthe issue, model and the method used |
