  1. since the 90's, Argentina received many chineses, koreans and ukranians.

    Recently, many people from central america and the caribbean.

    Historically, Argentina's main immigrants are Europeans ( 50% of population is of italian descendent) and 95% of the population is white.


  2. Mexico get a TON, mostly illegals (no joke) from Guatamala, El Salvador, and other central American countries.

    Peru might have quiet a bit from Asia, they've already had a Japaneses leader (of their country).

    If you are looking for other Filipino then Mexico is probably best, Colima is one of the better places for Filipinos, although most Filipinos in Mexico date back way too far to even know a inch of Tagalog, let alone Visayan and other dialects.

    Argentina get quite a few from Europe, as does Mexico. Brazil probably get alot too but I don't know of Brazil. Suriname, Guiana, and those small countries have large Indian populations....i mean HUGE.

  3. Mexico has seen many immigrants from the Middle East (Lebanon, Syria) especially during the 1980s when the civil war ravaged Lebanon. Many Eastern Europeans (Poles, Russians) arrive during the 1980s, during the fall of the "Iron Curtain". Presently, Mexico has been dealing with waves of illegal immigration from Asia (China), Guatemala and El Salvador. also, many Cubans have resettled here as refugees.

    Other countries with heavy immigration include:

    *Puerto Rico (from Colombia, Argentina, the Dominican Republic and Uruguay)

    *Panama (from the UK, US, Canada)

    *Costa Rica (from the US, Canada, Cuba)

    Countries with heavy emigration are:

    *Bolivia (to Spain)

    *Colombia (to Spain, Canada, U.S.)

    *Venezuela (to Spain and U.S.)

    *Peru (to Spain and U.S.)

    *Ecuador (to Spain and U.S.)

    *Dominican Republic (to Spain, Puerto RIco, the Netherlands Antilles and U.S.)

    *Cuba (to Spain,U.S., Canada)

    * Haiti (to U.S. and Canada)

    *Jamaica (to U.S., Canada and the U.K.)

    *Brazil (to U.S., Portugal, Spain, Canada)
