UAE expats face squeeze

  • United Arab Emirates: Sunday, September 23 - 2007 at 07:21

Expatriate workers in the UAE are being hit by inflation rates of around 9.3% and currency depreciation, reported Gulf News. The Indian rupee has risen more than 14% against the dirham since the start of the year, while the UAE's dollar pegged currency has fallen 17% against the euro over the past 18 months. Expats have seen both their savings potential decline and their day-to-day cost of living spiral.
