[Ali Imran]

Same thing happening in Australia. My cousin worked there all his life and he came back two years ago to say that wages can't go up because of the Indians. I say, if the govt wants to open up the IT sectors to foreigners, then they should do it for all other sectors, including the medical profession and lawyers. Why are some professions being protected while others have to face so much competition?

In 2005, I got a gig to cover a helpdesk guy once a week. I was paid $120 for that one day a week. An Indian software engineer was at the desk beside me. He showed me oop. Yes, before that, I was a top-down programmer, like COBOL. What he showed me was a real eye-opener, a massive knowledge came to me.

So, I gained from the influx of Indians, probably because I never once cursed the Indians for making it difficult for me to get a job. I believe in Allah and all His decrees. Unable to find a job was Allah's decree. I am a Muslim and I submit to Allah's will.

Islam is the best way of life.
