Moving to Qatar

shreeya i'm afraid i don't know what to reply to that, i'm not an economist and its not like these things really tickle my fancy. what i can say however is that inflation rates in malta are not very high compared to other countries which means that while other countries' money loses value, ours loses less... also inspite of being a small economy, we used to offer offshore benefits to financial companies. although now much of that has finished, many foreign investment companies have set up head offices in malta, so basically although it a small economy, in spite of size its very stable and strong.. hence the currency remains strong. but mind you as off 2008 we're adopting euro so we're all in the same boat..

Novita...no worries re: climbing wall.. take your time. at most i'll go climb some palm trees :)

p.s. jekk ghedt xi hmerija rigward il flus ghiduli! :)

Why Maltese has he 2nd strongest currency of the world? Whats so special about Malta? Is it an oil rich or something like that country? Please tell me something about it.

Congradulations on UK pound appriciation.

not doing very well. When we arrived we calculated based on 5 QR to the pound, and now over 7 QR to the pound. We practically had at least 20 percents pay cut.

@kf07 :

I still need to go back to you about the climbing stuffs.

Amnesia – Qatar third strongest currency?? You sure about that?

As far as I know QR is bound to USD which is performing very, very and I repeat very bad lately … *crying out very, very and I repeat very loud*

Novita, you see its our plan to conquer the world! hehehe..i bet you'll find at least 1 maltese in most countries ;) ..and if not walking around, climbing around! :)

you are from Europe...so life here will be easy and smooth for you, huge payements, easy work, partying and chilling out in hotels and clubs everyday...come dear these are the golden times for you here in Qatar (sigh)

hi louise! been trying to get your contact from pat marshall but she had some probs etting through to me. i'm moving to doha in late october. if u'd like i've got some contacts of some maltese ppl already settled in so i can email them over if u like. 1 faily has been there for 3 yrs and another couple just moved in.

as for the guy who added this post i emailed him and gave him a rundown of things... hasn't gotten back to me yet though.

The only fact that I know is that Malta has the strongest currency in the world (followed by Kuwait, then Qatar).

You'll find alot of information here and I hope Qatar will be able to welcome you soon!

Hi I am Maltese and working in Doha. Would love to get in touch with other Maltese.

Thanks, Louise

Consider Malta is a small country ... i think their ppl start invading Qatar. Never met any Maltese till we arrived in Doha, have met both of the maltese pilot and their families and seems judging from this forum more and more Maltese arriving in Qatar :D

There are 2 maltese pilots working for Qatar Airways...

kf07 is a maltese, he also in this forum. Go and find him ... i dont think he is here in Qatar yet , but he is moving here shortly in the nxt few months.
