Agree in part with Edifis' comment esp -
"But after 50 years many people who once belonged to these underprivileged section have already come to the mainstream society, and some have grown to be affluent. But their children still use the quota system instead of merit to get a job. The result is degeneration of the standard of government workforce."
Malaysia - protectionist policies - originally devised to progress a certain backward race at that material time. However, now, that race is no longer backward. {NB: To the relevant people, read my statement carefully and don't get your underwear in a twist.]
Bottom line - Qatarization is a good idea AT THIS STAGE of the country's development. Implementing it takes a lot more thought.
"A deserving Qatari does not need any Qatarization program to get a job. He can get a job on the basis of merit. The Qatarization program means giving incompetent people important offices only for the sake of increasing the number of Qatari workforce."
- The majority are not there yet. How can Qataris be competent if they don't start somewhere? The important thing is to ensure that their attitude is right - proactive and always willing to learn new things and improve. Kindness and compassion to others. I believe it can be done - because they will generally listen to their elders - the culture and religion is such that ensure this kind of respect for their elders.
/With respect to kindness and compassion to certain quarters - they are actually but those certain quarters take advantage. Many a times, really cannot give too much "face". Really, in my countless daily experiences as well, where certain quarters perceive that they have power than me as an Asian woman, they WILL try to bully me. I just never post the details in public here although I could. Got all the number plates and such.
/For the record, Qataris - men and women have never been rude to me anywhere here. It's the others - even the women. They look through me, queue jump etc. Or maybe I should say that they try to...
Edifis - "You may see that they may outsource their job to call centers in India and China. So a HR rep in Qatar will have a remote desktop somewhere in India or Phillipines making a spread sheet or drafting a letter and sending it via mail."
The Westerners are doing this already. No difference. The only issue if monitoring.
