I am writing with regard to the post “Saudi Arabia will always need expats” (Oct. 29). On one hand, the Saudi government is adamant on setting ridiculous rules and laws to limit an expat's stay in the Kingdom and on the other hand, they complain about the large amount of annual foreign remittances made by expats! Don't get me wrong, I love Saudi Arabia and consider it home. But the government has to cut us some slack. Second and third generation expats are willing to stay and invest in the Kingdom if allowed. Otherwise, we have no option other than sending all out savings back home. Fouad, Online response
