| Zee, you should look into this issue more carefully, do some research and you will find there are numerous Mexican government plans, projects and programs aimed at reducing migration and promoting the return of Mexicans who've gone to work in the US.
Migration from Mexico is economically premised, people go north looking for work they can't find at home. However governments don't control economies and they are limited in what they can accomplish, particularly in poorer countries with weak tax structures.
Whether the Mexican government can reduce migration through development is not at all that clear. During Fox's term they implemented a slew of efforts to promote local development and offer employment opportunities, to no avail. With more government spending and less corruption, we still saw increased migration, despite positive economic growth and no end-of-term financial debacles.
What I got from the note (which I posted to show how Mexico is aware of and dealing with the issue of migration) was the idea there was a substantial and relatively well-qualified workforce Mexico could draw from in the US. This is important since, as the Mexican economy continues to grow and jobs become more complicated, experienced workers will be needed.
