அரபிய இளைஞர்கள் ஏன் புனித பூமியை விட்டு ஓட விரும்புகிறார்கள்?

Manama: Around three quarters of Arab youth want to migrate to countries out of their region due to rising unemployment in Arab states, an Arab League official said.
"Due to their poor participation in society and politics and to rising joblessness, 70 per cent of the Arab youth want to migrate out of the region," Khalid Al Wahishi, director of Population Policy and Immigration at Arab League, said.
Empower the youth
"We at Arab League have been warning member states at all our meetings to empower the youth. Unemployment, alarmingly high at 26 per cent, poor participation of youth and illiteracy are major hindrances to population policy development and implementation," Al Wahishi told delegates at a gathering of population experts from member-countries in Qatar.
The ratio of youth in the population of Arab countries is very high and requires efforts to empower them and raise their participation in politics, he said.
"The changes taking place in some Arab countries clearly show that it is the youth of these states who have played a leading role in the reforms movement," he said, quoted by Qatari daily The Peninsula on Tuesday.
Unemployment
According to the official, the Arab League has been arguing for several years that there was an urgent need to tackle the problems of unemployment in member-states and to empower the youth and raise their participation in society and politics.
The 13th meeting of the heads of national councils and committees of the population in Arab countries in Doha, opened on Monday, is bringing together delegates from Arab League and global agencies concerned with population to review the outcome of political and social developments, population and youth issues in Arab states.
The delegates will also discuss the demographic situation in the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) countries and review the activities of national population councils and committees in 2010.

one doubt: does the news concern UAE / Saudi Arabia? Or does it cover all Arabian countries, rather the middle-east in general?

இவனுங்கள் வேலைக்காக வேறு நாடுகளுக்கு போய் அங்கேயும் தீவிரவாத வேலைகளை ஆரம்பிப்பார்கள். புனித புமியிலேயே குண்டு போட்டு முஸ்லிம் ஜனத்தொகையை பாகிஸ்தானில் செய்வது போல் செய்யலாமே. அதை விட்டு விட்டு ஏன் வெளிநாடுகளுக்கு போகிறார்கள். இவர்கள் செல்லும் நாடுகள் ஜாக்கிரதையாக இருக்க வேண்டும்.
