Saad Al-Baddah, chairman of the National Commission for Recruitment (NCR) at the Council of Saudi Cham-bers of Commerce, said the NCR has finally signed a deal to recruit manpower from the east African nation.

Following a series of meetings over a span of six months, an agreement to this effect was signed with the Ethiopian Federation of Manpower Recruitment at NCR headquarters in Riyadh on Wednesday.

The NCR chairman added that the agreement included the establishment of training centers in Ethiopia to train housemaids before they come to the Kingdom.
