Good morning CiteHR colleagues.
I recently posted this message in the Malaysian section of CiteHR, but have had no replies. Wondering if anyone out there has some ideas or suggestions. I have also posted in another thread, so apologies for repeating this posting, but the need is now urgent.
I have a friend who lives in Egypt. He is 34 years old and working as a Quality Control / Production Engineer in a factory that makes and installs equipment in CNG Gas stations in Egypt.
As you know Egypt is a difficult place since the revolution to oust the former President and life is hard. My friend also faces the added pressure of his family forcing him into an arranged marriage which he does not want.
He is keen to leave Egypt as soon as possible, and make a new independent life elsewhere. Unfortunately it is too difficult right now for him to try to emigrate to Australia as visas are very hard to get, very expensive, and the process very time consuming.
I had thought of Malaysia as a place he could go. I took him there for a 2 week holiday last December and he liked the country. I am thinking that as it is a Muslim country, he would not have so much difficulty adapting.
Other than Malaysia, does anyone have any suggestions? I am not sure he would be comfortable with India, but I have suggested to him that he must look at all possibilities with an open mind.
I would need information on the work visa rules are for your suggested country. Also if you know of a factory that might have a job for my friend? It could be any sort of factory that needs a Quality Control Engineer type person.
Any assistance to help him find living quarters and get settled would also be good.
I have limited resources to assist my friend manage the process and getting settled, but willing to try and assist where I can.
Any help anyone can give me on this subject will be much appreciated.
Thank you.
