Ummmm.....Doha is a secure and lucrative. A large indian community (majority being malayalees) is also an advantage. Don't heed my exprssion about social life because i just got back from India and its depressing to be off the hook from your country...all the parties, weddings and blah...blah...blah.....thats all. I just had a short stay and my folks are still there so am a little frustrated cause I'm so used to having them around here. Qatar's got loads and loads of malayalees....so don't worry.
In the long run life gets very monotonous here....its always better to have family around....
