It applies organizational commitment and human capital theories to the study of emigration.FindingsThe article provides evidence for the fact that psychic return to human capital investment in the country has significant relationship with emigration level from this country. At the same time, of all variables that comprise this type of return to HC investment, only two variables were found to be statistically significant: national GDP and access to education in the country.Research limitations/implicationsThe findings provide some evidence for the fact that emigration from a country cannot be reduced unless people in the country have the ability to lead an economically comfortable life and have access to education. Those countries that experience significant emigration need to turn their attention to developing and implementing sound economic and educational reforms. Emigration will be reduced as a result. A significant limitation of this research is the fact that not all the world countries were included in the analysis.

The combination of these two theories of social research allows a unique look at emigration.

Training Requirements

Human capital investment is important for service firms that provide personalised services, for example, luxury hotels. Hotels in Langkawi claim that they conduct continuous training. The extent of the training is just sufficient to fulfil the Ministry of Human Resources training requirements. Rarely do businesses spend above the minimum requirement. This is especially true in the hotel industry, an industry that many perceive as a stepping stone in building their careers. This makes it significant to conduct and in-depth interview with the master minds of The Datai Investing in People (DIP) training programme. The purpose of the interviews is to investigate how human capital investment is carried out in the hotel industry. Furthermore, the fact that covid-19 spreads around the world only a year after the “new” Datai reopens makes it seems riskier as it is very doubtful that the hotel will get the expected returns from its investment. The findings of this study may enhance understanding of human capital investment in the hotel industry as it provides in-depth explanation of how The Datai invests in its human capital. The finding will also bridge the gap between theory and practice as it enhances understanding of why many hotels choose to limit their human capital investment. The Datai’s sacrifice makes it clear why it has remained as the employer of choice
