professionals preferred to leave their country as soon as they get

benefit by listening and learning form the experience of

right now. In these times of worldwide and local financial crisis,
increased taxation, credit crunch, hyper-inflation, and energy

treated better than an industrial age manual laborer as we need him/
her now more then ever to weather the storm.
