Sir, I am a US professor of Middle East studies who is in Saudi Arabia for writing a book on the history/society of the Kingdom. Since my arrival in the Kingdom at the end of last month, I have enjoyed reading Abdullah Sayel’s cartoons and his commentaries, particularly the one on Sinbad.

The challenge of employment — both expatriate and Saudi — has been an interest of mine for some time and I would welcome a chance to talk to Sayel about it. — Sean Foley, Riyadh
