Expats with no jobs have no place in Kuwait
According to Kuwait Times, The senior official said that the large number of marginal expatriate workers who do not legally have a job in Kuwait – estimated between 70,000 and 100,000 – is a serious problem
that needs to be addressed. “Kuwait cannot handle the large number of expatriate workers,” he said. “Whoever has a job is welcomed, but there are expatriates who do not have a job.
This is clear to everybody, and I am welling to lead an inspection tour around the country in order to reveal the number of marginal labor living here.”
“As a country of law, we protect expatriates and their rights. However, those who do not have a job do not have a place among us. This is how it should be, and that is what we believe should be done,” Sheikh Mazen told reports.
