Al-Saleh was commenting on the statement made by Al-Jassar who has said it is difficult to do away with the services of expatriates both in the Ministry of Health and the Ministry of Education. Al-Saleh wondered: “What harm will come on the Ministry of Health if it terminates the services of expatriate doctors who are over 65 years of age and can no longer perform surgical or technical work and automatically become administrative staff?” Al-Saleh said the expatriates working in the Ministry of Education are still a large figure, and the ministry should carry out a well-studied plan to remedy the situation. “So far there are still foreign teachers for social subjects, although there are Kuwaitis and children born to Kuwaiti mothers who are graduates and are not accepted under the pretext there is no need for teachers of such specializations while continuing to employ new expatriate teachers,” Al-Saleh added.

Al-Saleh said: “We support the immediate replacement and there should be no delay in this file, while at the same time not bringing a negative impact or defect on the performance of government agencies, because there are sectors that need to have tangible experience.”
