your question has been unfairly answered by dweller I feel.
I am a recent immigrant back to qatar from canada. I have a job that pays a fair amount of living allowance and transportation and fills my needs more than adequately. You can make a case for it (infact they will realise it themselves), it just depends on the employer.
Generally, your allowances of housing and transport are not kicked up specifically because of where u come from, in contrast, your whole salary package is kicked up. So, even though they will not tell u that they are giving u more to live because ure western, in fact they are.
There is a clear dichotomy that exists in Qatar that depends on where you come from. If you're from the west, salaries are generally higher than if u are from somewhere else. Its not fair (just ask the nepalis here), but thats the way the cookie crumbles here.
