According to a recent study on Asian workers in Romania as a solution to the labor shortage, one in three would like to stay longer in Romania. Three quarters of the workers from South and Southeast Asia working in Romania are men. A significant proportion of respondents come from India (18%), Vietnam (17%), Bangladesh (16%), Pakistan (15%) and Nepal (14%).
