Domestic workers are being recruited to a limited extent from Sri Lanka. They stressed that Kuwait is no longer an attractive country for domestic workers due to several reasons. The office owners said, “There are other global markets that recruit domestic workers from the Philippines such as Singapore, Japan, Canada, and the United States.

In terms of the limited entry of domestic workers and the reluctance of workers coming from the Philippines to work in Kuwait, the problem is not internal in Kuwait.
