Dear all, i can not help noticing that there is a lot of question lately raised from people currently living in Qatar and asking for sponsorship and/or seeking urgently new job before the expiry of their RP.
Now, my question is; what is going on? is there a lot of layoffs taking place in Qatar? Is the recent global economic turmoil has it is direct effect on the Qatari private business, that they are forced to cut cost?
Your thoughts are appreciated, but what is mostly appreciated if someone has a statistical data and care to share.

I think that there are some lay-offs from different companies here. I have friends who are working from Banks and Construction companies and just recently laid off. Quite sad.

Statistical data, I do not have an idea yet but numbers are increasing each day.
