The Dhaka Times Desk The MP of that country has proposed to send back 1.4 million foreigners from Kuwait Dr. Khalil Abdullah, this process will continue for 5 years. As a result, about 280,000 foreign workers will return to their respective countries every year.
Recently, Kuwait has undertaken a comprehensive plan to deal with its country's population problems. Only one-third of the current population in Kuwait are Kuwaiti nationals. A large number of expatriate workers are staying in Kuwait in search of work. These workers will be sent back to their respective countries in phases.
According to the latest January survey, the total population of Kuwait is 39 lakh 65 thousand 22 people. Among the total population of Kuwait there are about 2.5 million foreigners. Again, 37.80 percent of them are Asians, among whom a significant number are Bangladeshis.
MP of Kuwait Dr. Khalil Abdullah said, 'Recently, there has been a huge imbalance in the population of Kuwait, we want to reduce this imbalance. And to fix it, 280,000 foreigners will have to be expelled for five years.'
If Kuwait takes this step, Bangladeshis will suffer the most. Because there are a significant number of Bangladeshis in Kuwait. If Kuwait sends back 1.4 million foreigners from 2.5 million foreigners, the remaining 1.1 million foreigners can stay there.
Only experienced foreigners can stay in Kuwait. In this case, according to the MP's proposal, a large number of foreigners are currently in Kuwait, and the citizens are becoming unemployed. By repatriating foreigners, other foreigners and locals will have equal job opportunities.
Earlier, another Kuwaiti MP brought such a bill Abdullah El Tamimi His proposal also included sending 13 lakh foreigners back to their respective countries.
