"Qatar has signed a deal that could see 30,000 skilled and semi-skilled Pakistanis migrate to the Gulf state as it looks to solve a growing skills shortage that is affecting the entire region.

The agreement between the Qatari and Pakistan governments aims to boost employment opportunities for Pakistanis looking to migrate to Qatar as well as those already living in the Gulf state, Qatar daily The Peninsula reported on Monday.
