hi,

welcome to the blog. Don't worry. From all Iraq, Sulaymaniyah is the safest. nothing to worry. life goes on here as usual.

thanks for the response, are you originally from there or you are also an expat? is there a lot of filipino community there right now?

Kurdistan is very safe. whether it is Suleymania or Erbil or Duhok.

The internal security of Kurdistan is managed by themself. So, need not worry.

I'm an Indian expat working in Erbil. The expat community here is very diversified, unlike GCC nations. It's a friendly environment here. So do not worry.

Hi Joyceness
Sorry about my late response
I'm from UK in Najaf and regularly drive to Baghdad which takes 3 hours
Security is high but I have had no problem in the last year, Inshalla
Best wishes in your new job!

@ukcubitt hallo! Just read that you drive to bangdad. I got an offer at Warwick Babylon bangdad hotel ready to join.  but just concerned how is the place, the hotel and security at large at the moment. Thank you
