Visited some friends in Fintas Towers last year..didn't seem like such a ghetto!?
However, since the powers that "think they are" are the ones slashing allowances, how can they get away with these cuts AND deny the ex-pats suitable housing?
Pardon me, but IMHO, this smacks of creative RIF (reduction in force) as the yanks put it. Do they really think those guys will sit back and lose that kind of money and not bitch? or vote with their feet????
Don't the guys there have any sort of "Association"/union? Is that sort of thing allowed in Kuwait, UAE, Saudi?
As for the new guy who signed the contract with truncated remuneration, didn't he have any mates to watch out for him?
