A graying population will generally adopt policies in attracting foreign talents. Despite protests from various communities or groups of people, countries will still have to accept a fact. Either attract foreign talents to join you, or compete with these foreign talents being drawn to other states.
While it is easy to use incentives and tax reliefs for foreign migration into the country, it is not as easy to retain them and keep them within the country for long term. Immigrants might take advantage of the citizenship of the host country as a stepping stone to migrate to other countries.
To retain the talents that step into the country, there needs to be a long term engagement of these new citizens. This can take place in the form of community involvement, providing a forum for these minorities, assimilating their culture into that of the country.
New citizens might face rejection by the community initially. Grassroots leaders and volunteers should arrange more interaction programmes and activities to reduce this to a minimum.

Well, have you ever wondered about this before: What happens when the foreign talents grow old? Anyway, I have always wanted to ask. The government says the greying population burden can be lightened by letting foreign talents come in. But how? Why should they let us tax them? Also, if they were business men, wouldn't they have ways to evade tax?
