More workers troop in as Qatar builds

Some 52,000 people arrived in Qatar in November last year taking the country’s total population to slightly over 1.63 million on the last day of 2009 which was a Thursday.

Those keeping tabs on the country’s demographic figures say the influx of foreign workers could be due to a large number of small residential projects being launched across the country.

According to the Qatar Statistics Authority (QSA), the number of people present in the country on December 31, both citizens and expatriates, stood at 1,631,728.
