The touch of irony is that the National Human Resource Development and Employment Authority, the focal body looking into the Emiratisation process, has been repeatedly stating that they are looking for job openings for nationals registered with them in substantial numbers.

And the Minister of Labour and Social Affairs Dr Ali bin Abdullah Al Kaabi is also the the Chairman of the Board of Directors of Tanmia! It could be a perfect case of two birds with one stone for Al Kaabi. He would have helped Tanmia achieve success in terms of getting employment for the nationals, and the Inspecting Department, which falls under his Ministry, will have no reason to complain, all this in one shot. This way, Tanmia's waiting list would be reduced significantly and the Inspecting Department's vacany list would altogether disappear.
