Dear Jamiaets,
Assalam alekum,
Recent economic melt down forced many unprecedented events on individuals specially loss of job or pay cut.
Situation is not at all good world wide; however, it is worse in Dubai, UAE where construction/Banking is the most affected industry.
News is censored, but people loosing jobs in thousands.
Developers either collapsed or closed down their projects & this transferred subsequently on construction consultants, contractor, specialized sub contractors, suppliers & financial institutions.
At present it seems this is not going to stop here & will hit all trades in near future if continue.
I have been hearing a lot of jamiaets also affected in various ways.
It is a difficult time.
It is also difficult to give job assurance to any single person however; we need to curb this disturbance by an extent by doing the following.
Get in touch with each other by various means (networking).
Update each other with day to day market developments.
Explore any possible job & post on common platform for jamiaets.
Recommend if any thing is within your reach.
Console those affected & offer support within your reach.
Beside each Jamiaets i would also like to appeal Jamia Millia Islmia Alumni, Riyadh, Jeddah & Kuwait chapter to come forward for the rescue of many jamiaets who lost their job or looking helplessly for relocation as mentioned above.
Let's sail the boat together.
Regards,
