I am offended by many of the posts here, but here are a few problems with the current Qatarization strategy:
There aren't enough Qataris to fill all to positions.
Most of those available are not trained well enough, we should train them (on the job?), which is something we seem to ignore.
We fire first, then look for somebody to hire.
There are many new jobs needed, not only replacing current jobs.
We've been talking about Qatarization for 25 years and have only been serious about it this year.
Sure, if a Qatari can do the job, let him take it, If a foreigner is to be replaced by a Qatari, I suggest letting him work with the foreigner for a few months or years first.
I'll finish by saying what will happen is this: foreigners will be laid off government jobs, nobody will replace them, then the government agencies will contract companies to provide people who are not counted in their head count, providing 100% Qatarization.
