Qatar (Doha) ATC for new Airport

Hi guyz. With Qatar's new airport almost ready for action, what is the plan there. Would appreciate if insiders can share their ideas.

- Is Serco taking the contract???
- How many ATC's do they need?
- How many ATC's is starting within the nex few months?
- Why is there no big fuss about Doha being the nex busiest airport in Middle East?
- If there's a shortage,Why isn't the world applying there all at the same time?
- Who gonna work old airport and who's gonna work at new airport.
- What is current staff situation?
- What is roster cycle like at the moment and will it change?
- How much truth is in the EXIT VISA story?
- Cos why should you get permission to take a break away from Home/Work.
- If EXIT VISA is true, are they going to change it anytime soon for ATC staff?
- What package is being offerred to newcomers?
- Do you see Doha work complexity on Approach getting easier once new airport open or will situation remain the same.
- What is city life like, for singles and families?
- Last, hows the traffic to airport from the Villa neighbourhoods.

Just curious about what lays ahead at Doha, so everyone who is interested in Middle East can maybe choose Doha as an alternative to Dubai.
