You are right . I was mainly referring to the potential outflow of expats that may arise from the declining price of oil. My job is tied to a strong expat community that has discretionary income. If the expats are leaving, then my incentive to go is that much reduced.
Thanks Abbas.
I am really tempted but not being a spring chicken anymore and looking at the downturn in the economy, I try to get advice from people with an insight of Dubai
My wife is finding it very difficult to get a job in the medical sector. As a medical secratary for 20 years in the NHS in the UK, salaries here in a similar or managerial role are ridiculously low... even compared to the NHS salaries.
As far as i know the % growth of UAE is the higest in the world. think they stated 5-6% for the next couple of years.
where USA and Europe is like 2-3%
And good old Africa 1-3%
That's what i read on electronic news media.
