I have watch with keen interest here in Qatar that most job advertised are mainly for Filipines and Indians, while many qualified Africans are in Qatar ready to work and contribute there quota to the development of the organisation. This is simply discriminatory.

it's very simple...they are very cheap ... salary wise especially , conditions of living....

they are not hard working...they are like machines..if you tell them to do something ( even if it's wrong ) they just don't ask questions or even think at the task itself...they just do it and that's it. they are the perfect puppets :)

because they only can pretend to be hard working,and moreover if the HR personnel are filipinos they want their people only.. I also have the feeling like working in Manila not in Doha, Because in my office 80% are filipinos only.

Perhaps because they offer the best value for money..

Hardworking on meagre salaries..

There is nothing like that. The population of filipinos and indians are more in the GCC....atleast they speak in english and work properly. But in Qatar you can find lots of egyptians.....who are clueless about their job but still earning big salaries and they only know to shout.....Even the other arab nationals go crazy over them.

yes mostly here Indians , but 90% Kerala's , because Kerala is the most educated state in INDIA. not only here, all the middle east same .... and also in the world.... INDIAN'S ARE WORKING VERY HARD. that's why they are ENGINEER"S DOCTOR'S , SCIENTISTS etc... and also check the business people here.. also Kerala's , LULU, SAFARI, FOOD WORLD, QUALITY, etc... and check the mostly hotels... also Kerala's

More american doctors, engineer's are Indians

the best person who can answer you correctly why most jobs are for filipinos and indians are the COMPANY ITSELF. you can ask them during your interviews why they are only hiring filipinos and indians and not africans like you. tel them that is a racism...
