The Saudi Council of Engineers (SCE) has announced expatriate engineers are now able to contest seats and vote in elections to various technical committees of the high-profile body, Arab News has reported. Until recently, elections to the technical committees were open only to Saudi engineers. "During the upcoming elections, which are scheduled to take place in January, expatriates from different engineering backgrounds, such as civil, mechanical, petroleum and information and technology etc., will be able to nominate themselves for these committees and they can actively canvass for votes from their fellow engineers to win their seats," said Abdul Rahman Zaid Yousef Al-Arfaj, a member of the council's board of directors.
