ajay dear, guess u have some misconceptions abt middle east. this avenue is much better than what u think. I'm NOT talking abt saudi arabia or like but rather recommending places like UAE (Dubai in particular) and Bahrain.

Ivan - try www.bayt.com, www.skill-link.com.

I tend to agree somewhat with ajay...while life in general here is definitely NOT hell (I live in kuwait)...working life can be A TORTURE especially if you are a professional. You need to have tons of luck to get into a progressive company in most of the ME (you can count these companies with the fingers of your right hand).

Bahrain and dubai are supposed to be OK.

subbu,

i 110% agree with you. u can count the good groups on ur fingers.... i was lucky that my first stint was with Jumbo Group in DXB. as for workload, definitely the workload was terrible in DXB, but life in Muscat seems to be much more relaxed and easy. never been to kuwait, so cant tell much abt that.
bahrainis a cool place though....

Saudi Arabia is the best when it comes to working in the ME. Most of what you hear is false. There are 35000 British expats and even more Americans working in Saudi Arabia. All of these expats are extremely happy to be in Saudi Arabia as they get high salaries.
I have lived in Saudi Arabia. I am saying this from my personal experience. Saudi Arabia is better than UAE but UAE might have more jobs in your field.

Any way, its your choice. If you want to save money then ME is good. If you are looking for a Western lifestyle, then UK or US are better.

Its hard to find a job without a face-to-face interview.

Studyuk,

Welcome back to the forum....... I think there are general misconceptions about Saudia. Although I have never been there, first hand experience always helps...thanks for your comments.

You have come a long way since the below post (click on link)..I am not sure if somebody else was using your id to post comments there.

Dip,
I think you and my other fellow South Asians are naive. You guys deny the fact that Western countries are better than South Asian ones. Our people stand outside the embassies of these countries just for a visa and yet refuse to accept these countries better than ours.

I removed the sentence because I did not want anyone to stray from the topic. I still support my statement.

Prove me wrong. Prove that South Asia is better than Western countries. If you cannot do that, then please refrain from replying to my posts. I was not even talking to you.

The guys here are not too fast Dip. I was just being courteous. Do you know what courtesy is?

Moreover, some of you have said offence stuff about Saudi Arabia (like calling it hell).

These guys should be banned.

StudyUK2004,

I aint got nothing to prove to you. You are an avoidable agony on this forum. I want to bring to your attention my previous reply to you from the following post.
http://www.workpermit.com/ubb/cgi-bin/ultimatebb.cgi?ubb=get_topic&f=1&t=004539

Please take some time to read through it although it may be taxing on your b....

studyuk2004,
I am appalled at your comments, attitude and unprofessional language. This is a forum for helping people on immigration issues and not expressing your hatred towards any particular nationality. So if you dont care about the immigration issues, you shouldnt be here in the first place.

Reading the above comments, it appears you are from Pakistan - an obvious reason you have been hitting at your neighbours. Now that we know you are a British Citizen, I cant stop asking a question.........Originally, did you not have to first stand in the queue for a entry Visa... or did you get in by other means???

Your first post on this forum way back in September 2003 had "0" (Read ZERO) responses. You surely are still waiting on here looking for responses. Throwing your toys wont result in any.

Guys like Joseph above (I could list many more names) have been providing sincere, useful and more importantly FREE advice to hundreds of people on here. Its people like him, who are responsible for keeping the enthusiasm alive here.

I suggest you stay out if you cant be of any help.

Some Facts abt Saudi Arabia.....

Saudi is heaven, with all the flowers booming around?? Judge urself....

1. U are sentenced to 150 Lashes on Jumma (Friday) for drinking.
2. U cannot roam around in the street with ur female friend, the female
with whom u can roam around should be ur mother, sister or wife.
Theres nothing called a "Friend"!!
3. There are no cinema halls/like.
4.There are no TV serials.
5. Women are not allowed to work/drive even!
6. Out of personal enemity or anything,if a local lady complains against you,
u WOULD BE BEHEADED IN PUBLIC without having a chance to get heard even.
7. Some malls have only family entrances.
8. U r at the mercy of ur local sponsor for getting in or going out of the country.

Saudi is good place ONLY for whites, or anybody holding a western passport
as the above does NOT apply to 'em!

Saudi Arabia is better than any South Asian or East European hole. Its better than most countries if you want to save some money.
Most people here talking abt SA are the ones who have never been there.
Its a heaven for professionals if you are careful before signing the contract. Always insist on tax-free pay + accomodation + medical.
I must say that South Asians (esp. Bangladeshis) are the lowest paid people in ME.
Rapists and killers receive severe punishments and panky (above) seems to dislike that. Are you a rapist or killer panky?
Regarding sponsor being mean, I dont have to go far. Everyone knows Indian bodyshops in America are the meanest sponsors who subject their fellow Indians to extortion and humiliation just for money.

HAHAHA
I strongly agree with DIP as to u r a REAL EXCEPTIONAL IMMATURE CREATURE!!
I never knew I had to be one of a rapist or killer to drink, go to malls, go to movies, watch TV soaps or date my girlfriend.
HAHAHAHA

FYI, I'm very much aware of the pay structure prevalant in the ME and their nationality wise distributions.

Panky you are really naive and stupid. You can watch all soaps in SA. The quality of cable TV in Saudi Arabia is far better than in any South Asian hole. (I feel sorry for a grown up man watching soaps.)

You dont becoming a rapist or a killer untill you commit the crime. If you dont commit any such crime, yu can live happily in SA.

FYI I have lived in SA and loved my time there. Its one of the most peaceful countries in the world for people who are not into drinking.

Its definitely a no-go for perverts like you.

Now prepare yourself for standing in the long queue outside the British embassy. What time you guys go there....5 AM? HAHAHAHAHAHAH

Ivan,

In hindsight, you were better off on the other forums, where nobody even bothered to answer.

Some of the posts on here dont speak very well of the board - do they?

If you got answers to your queries (which I very much doubt), I would suggest you delete this post - Thanks in advance.

Hope the moderators are watching this space.

Regards
Dip
