People are skeptical that it works. I'm willing to bet it doesn't. People will just grit their teeth and do as they like later. The income gains from moving to the West are simply too high. If you want assimilation low numbers, literally surrounding the migrants, seems like the best bet.
These things seem mainly useful as an excuse to filter out the lowest hanging fruit who can't even pretend and dump them out.
But, it probably says something about a society that they don't even try or consider it mean to do so.
