Prove how most of the expatriates who work at PDO are useless, bearing in mind that the vast majority work for Shell and have been posted to Oman.<br /><br />Unless you can do that, then you just show how much of a bigot that you are. Without these useless expatriates, your country wouldn't have progressed to what it is. So stop moaning, get a real education, do some proper work and prosper.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6141281059998464389.post-90275975439758851052011-03-26T19:38:39.238+04:002011-03-26T19:38:39.238+04:001) US has brilliant and intelligent young expats a...1) US has brilliant and intelligent young expats asian/european thats how silicon valley was born.<br />2) Real professionals are not born from the colour of their skins - see item 1 - i am afraid thats exactly happening here in Oman<br />3) Oman have lot of western expats no doubt, but majority fall below average. Some will not survive in their own countries in one single day.<br />4) Some of the companies in oman should carry red cross logo, typical PDO, should become charitable organisation cos they really do not worth what they are paid for.<br />5) Real expats in this country are known who contribute economy engine of this country. Unfortunately Oman employs based on colour of the skin - i really do not want to become racist, Glory to those expats of whatever nationality who plays key role to economy of this country.<br />6) So TJ i go back to statement above - you surely sounds one of those lucky ones.

But I can suggest a couple of steps to realize your vision.<br /><br />1. Get a real education (with a grade score above 75% to really earn it)<br />2. Develop a work ethic. (All these protests only show to the world that all you are looking for is a handout)<br />3. Don't consider any job beneath you. ( I have yet to come across any Omani laborer - I wonder what that tells you about the society)<br />4. You need expats to grow the economy, hell even the United States is looking for qualified expats to come settle and grow the economy, what makes you think that Oman is self sufficient?<br /><br />His Majesty has done a wonderful job setting up a platform for success, but with what I have seen in the past month, I have no doubt the current generation will squander it.<br /><br />Anon - Chances are you are unintelligent or too inarticulate respond to this.
