This Jan. 25, 2017 photo taken with a super wide-angle lens, shows the new 304 million dinar ($997 million) Jaber Hospital, about a 20-minute drive from downtown Kuwait City, Kuwait.

Even elsewhere in the Persian Gulf -- a coveted destination for migrant workers -- there are growing voices who want the foreigners out. (AP Photo/Jaber Abdulkhaleg)
