Increasing numbers of southeast Asian men, particularly in Japan, South Korea and China Taiwan are marrying foreigners because fewer women in their homelands are willing to wed, a new study said Monday.、The phenomenon, which dates back more than a decade, has even created a detectable trend in women's migration, said the study by Daniele Belanger of the University of Western Ontario University.Since the beginning of the 1990s, more and more men in southeast Asia are looking abroad to find a wife, wrote Belanger in the journal of France's National Institute for Demographic Studies (INED).In Taiwan, 15 percent of wives were of foreign origin in 2009; eight percent in South Korea.In Japan, the phenomenon started earlier, in the 1980s http://www.mbtuks.co.uk/ - MBT Shoes , but has remained at a modest level: only five or six percent of marriages in the mid-2000s involved foreign wives.But in all three places, foreign brides represented the largest group of new immigrants apart from the temporary workers http://www.mbtuks.co.uk/ - mbt shoes sale , wrote Belanger.
