tallg, the cartoon's message is, the Medical Director of HMC is earning so much, that it equals the pay of so many Qataris.

This is a clear indication of a confused culture. They would rather go to Canada to get their health needs taken care of, but they would not want to pay the same Canadian executive here the same amount of what he was paid in Canada.

I bet that the Medical Director will regret coming here. A physician in the west is not just a fixed salary physician. They have a refferal base to maintain and a reputation to build. They even have terretorial of coverage agreements. If you leave, your area will be covered by someone else.

If our dear Qatari hosts are getting too concerned about what the HMC Medical director is getting paid, then they should take a sleeping pill before they see what will the world class physicians of Sidra be offered to come here.
