Abstract
Asian professionals have been going to the US, Canada, Australia, the UK and other western European countries over much of the contemporary history of migration. This is partly a legacy of a long history of colonial relationship especially in the case of the Philippines and the US, Malaysia, Hong Kong, Singapore and the UK, and Indonesia and The Netherlands, and also due to strong trade and investment links between them which occasion movements of traders, managers and technicians including intra-company transfers. The desire of many young Asians to acquire advanced degrees from western educational institutions has reinforced these trends, while shortages of skills and talents in the western industrial countries have prompted the adoption of welcoming immigration policies. Compared to other destinations these countries also offer easier access to certain niches of their labour market because of language and early steps taken to recognize professional degrees and qualifications acquired in foreign countries.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
