As migration grows steadily, remittance inflows have now surpassed foreign direct investment and official development aid, becoming the significant and indispensable sources of external finance for low- and middle-income countries (LMICs). However, recent trends suggest that countries received amounts of money from migrants and foreign workers are also corruptive. Based on the substitution effect, which explains remittance inflows serve as a form of financial security and thus reduce the recipients’ incentives to hold governments accountable, allowing governments to divert resources from public services into political patronage, this paper argues that remittance inflows deteriorate the quality of government governance and raise problems such as corruption. By using the panel data of 126 countries from 2000 through 2018, the results provide support for the arguments. This paper also structures the case-based discussions from Pakistan and Guatemala, the evidence indicates the importance of sending remittances through formal channels, such as banks or money transfer operators, and monitoring government policies by civil society.參考文獻 王雲東，2007，《社會研究方法：量化與質性取向及其應用》，台北：揚智文化。[Social Research Methods: Quantitative and Qualitative Approaches and Applications]。 中華民國外交部，2023，〈外交部各國中英文名稱對照表〉，外交部全球資訊網：https://reurl.cc/QZdrjp/。 Jarol B.
