If the Bureau wants to protect us by implementing procedures to prevent tourist workers from leaving the country and ending up in worse state, then they should have at least the decency NOT TO ASK FOR ANYTHING IN RETURN OF BEING GIVEN THE PERMISSION TO LEAVE THE COUNTRY under such visas.
Enough time should have been given to those holders of tourist visas. Some of them have ready work here in Qatar and were only provided tourist visas because of the urgency of their employers' need. At least, on my part, I know that the two people I was trying to help are coming to be immediately provided with a working visa. These two are examples of victims of FATE. One left her job to come here because of the offer and the other one has borrowed money from people for his visa and airticket. What will happen to them? They will not be allowed to leave the country? They are already wallowing in debts!!! They are only two of the victims of circumstances and I am sure there are more than hundreds who are suffering the same fate!
Can a temporary restraining order not be made in the implementation of this new rule by the Immigration? At least give these people enough time to use the visas that have been stamped by the Qatar Embassy in the Philippines and let them fly here. Is this not possible?
