Is it the effect of winning in Qatar 2022 bid? Everything is increasing! Food, gas, services, etc. What is happening in Qatar? Cost of living is getting higher but the salary in not increasing...

Its a way of life all over the world.. Better accept it and do something about it or just whine about it.

To Baldrick2dogs!

I am just asking why prices of commodities are increasing. I am not telling that i am unhappy! Wether you admit it or not, we have the same purpose why we are here. That is to earn money which we cannot earn in our country.

Worldwide prices of commodities are increasing.

Have you heard about the floods in Pakistan, Brazil, Australia, China and the Philippines? Harvest went down on these countries so many basic food items are increasing. Qatar imports almost all of its food.

As for the gas prices demand is increasing specially China.

In India, people are suffering from price increases on basic spices.

So this is worldwide not only Qatar.

Dear you are lucky if your salary is not increased. With the new contracts out our salaries are decreased and our end of service benefits are even removed.

Once we raised this, the only reply was "Allah Kareem"
