You can immigrate to Australia. Many people from South Africa and Zimbabwe are doing that as they can't return to the disaster that those countries have become. A few years ago I looked into it just to see. Immigration goes on a point system. At the time I looked into it being a professional pilot got you 5 points. You had to convert to at least an Australian CPL though. You could also buy points or invest money to get points.

Check out the Australian immigration info on their government website. It was pretty clear when I looked at it.
