Unemployed Portuguese told to 'just emigrate'
A wave of indignation was triggered when Passos Coelho, in the face of the growing unemployment that is hitting young people and educators extremely hard, suggested to teachers on December 18 that as an alternative they could move to Portuguese-speaking countries like Brazil or Angola.

But the governments of Angola and Brazil quickly responded, saying they had no immediate need for teachers.
