Well....whats wrong with DECs..??
Someday we will all become captains(well...most of us) ...and at some stage in our career, with perhaps command experiences that we have, some will probably choose to jump ship or return back to their home country to take up better offer as probably DEC as well..
Its an open market out there, and middle east is no different. The pie is big & its growing..people come and leave...& one will get their share when the time comes .......just my 2 fils worth
