Expatriate matters

Expatriates 'most keen' to leave country
Nearly a third of expatriates working in Saudi Arabia, Qatar and Oman are seeking to leave their adopted countries, local website arabianbusiness.com reported on Wednesday citing a HSBC survey.
34% of expatriates in Saudi Arabia want to move out of the country, followed by Qatar (30%) and Oman (29%), the website reported citing HSBC's Expat Explorer Survey.
"This suggests that many expatriates always intended to move to the region for a set period of time, potentially to take advantage of the higher income available, before moving elsewhere or back to their home country," the survey added.

Isn't that what expatriates ...Isn't that what expatriates usually do? Work for a while and then move on.
I can't see anything unusual or country specific there.

This is the nature of the ME ...When you get residency in the middle east it is linked to a single job and not many people opt to stay in one job for life. There is also no job security out here so you could be out with no warning. When you get residency in other countries you are generally not tied to one place and there is not such a feeling of insecurity. Makes a whole lot of difference I reckon.
