Gulf migrant workers will be biggest victims of oil shock: Kemp | Reuters

Gulf migrant workers will be biggest victims of oil shock: Kemp | Reuters:

"Saudi Arabia's army of migrant workers will be among the biggest losers from the slump in oil prices and the impact will reverberate to poor countries across the Middle East and South Asia where many of them originate.

Saudi Arabia relies more heavily on migrant labor than any other large country except neighboring United Arab Emirates, according to the United Nations Department of Economic and Social Affairs.

The oil boom brought an unprecedented influx of migrants mostly from poorer countries in the Middle East and South and Southeast Asia."
