A swelling crisis of epic proportions | GulfNews.com:
"Youth unemployment has assumed alarming proportions in Arab countries and with untold consequences. The worrying development has repercussions for the Gulf economies too.
Arab nations look up to the Gulf to provide job opportunities and economic assistance for them. This is a challenge by itself and reflects the rising unemployment among locals in half of the six Gulf states.
Frustrations about the socioeconomic challenges — notably youth unemployment — contributed to the Arab Spring wakening, starting with Tunisia in late 2010 and then sweeping Egypt from January 2011. The uprising had its genesis in sociopolitical reforms but spread over socioeconomic challenges."
