Push Factors;
From 1909-1935 poverty in the Ilocano provinces pushed many men to migrate
In 1972 Ferdinand Marcos became the dicator of the Philippines. Many of his political opponents fled the country.
Pull Factors;
After a ban on immigrants from China, Japan and Korea in 1909, the Hawaiian Sugar Planters Association recruited Filipino workers to work on sugar plantations. They were guaranteed passage to Hawaii and free subsistence and clothing.
The War Brides Act of 1946 led to the immigration of 5,000 Filipina brides.
Hawaiian sugar plantation owners brought 7,000 Sakadas or "1946 boys" to break up a strike by the International Longshoremen and Warehousmen's Union.
