  1. Your Qatar figures are incorrect, the middle eastern country drives itself based on near slave labor from immigrants who have no rights. Also if you are in the process of opening or running a business you need a local partner who pockets profits for just being the local partner unless you are based in a FTZ which if my understanding is correct, you do not need a local partner

  2. Hello VOS

    The bottom line is, there is no minimum wage laws in Qatar. I am not defending Qatar or saying there is anything right about these Arab states.

  3. There is no minimum wage that is required by legislation in Sweden. Instead, minimum wage is set by annual collective bargaining contracts.

  4. Good on the Swede's. Considering how socialist they are, they must have got this one right by accident.
