摘要:During this period of globalization, international labor migration is a common reality. Attaining economic solvency and better future are the major causes among many that motivate people for migration at this moment. Current paper is an initiative to explore the rights, realities and survival strategies of Bangladeshi migrants working in Peninsular Malaysia from the perspectives of social networking. In this context Bangladeshi Diaspora formation and settlement practices in the multi-cultural social setting of the host country will be explored, where migrants’ integration and assimilation is strictly prohibited by the anti-integration migration policies. For this, sojourns’ complex coping mechanisms andsurvival strategies will be presented here that were scrutinized through an intensive fieldwork among the Bangladeshi migrants of Peninsular Malaysia. How inter and intraethnic networking enabled migrant Bangladeshis to find a way of settlement and survive aswell and the likelihood of the existence of a hybrid trans-national identity within the migrants and their newly developed inter-ethnic strong ties, will be presented in this paper.
