Which of the following scenarios would most likely lead to deceased migration into the country?

a. australia’s job market continues to improve.
b. south africa creates a better healthcare system.
c. oil is struck in several areas of saudi arabia.
d. japan is hit with the most powerful earthquake in recent history.

Your answer would be D). Japan is hit with the most powerful earthquake in recent history.

The scenario that would most likely lead to deceased migration into the country would be Japan is hit with the most powerful earthquake in recent history.

Explanation:

The reason why answer choice "D). Japan is hit with the most powerful earthquake in recent history" would be the correct answer is because no one would want to migrate to a place where it had the biggest earthquake. People would want to migrate to a place where it is safe, economically strong, and has a good environment. Earthquakes are very dangerous, and they especially hit Japan a lot, in which decreases the amount of migrants there. People wouldn't want to migrate to Japan if it was hit with the most powerful earthquake in recent history, that pretty much scares off the migrants. This is the reason why this answer choice would be correct.

Why the other answer choices is incorrect:

Answer choice "A. Australia’s job market continues to improve." is incorrect because:

This does not decrease the amount of migrants going into the country, this lures migrants to the country. If the job market is continuing to improve, the people would migrate there because they have  an opportunity to get a job. This is the reason why this answer choice would be incorrect.

Answer choice "B. South Africa creates a better healthcare system." is incorrect because:

This is also another reason why people would migrate, this would lure migrants. People really want better health care nowadays, and if South Africa is providing that, people would migrate their because it is a good thing to have in a country. This is the reason why this answer choice would be incorrect.

Answer choice "C. Oil is struck in several areas of Saudi Arabia." is incorrect because:

What this means is that Oil is in parts of Saudi Arabia. Oil is a very rich substance in which a country could sell for profit. This would benefit Saudi Arabia's economy because they could sell oil to other countries for money to help the economy. This would lure migrants in the country because they can see that the country is rich in a very valuable substance, and could use that to maintain a strong economy. This is the reason why this answer choice would be incorrect.
