HGL - to be honest, I was just glad to see that there is at least an acknowledgement that Expatriates at least contribute towards the economic success of this county. I was using this basic example to highlight this.

On one level there are a lot of roles that Qatari nationals simply do not want to do (hence my orignial comments) and some they simply do not have the education or experience to do - as to the rest we are entering into the realms of controversial discussion.

Another reason I am glad that this has been said, is I am sick of being told that I am a greedy expat who is here to rip off the country, whilst being incompetant at my job (if you don't believe me, do check back through previous postings on QL).
