Even though thiswork is temporary, I can't understand why no citizens wanted these jobs, unless of course they aren't posted anywhere.
Also, these are not Chinese nationals. They all have Arabic names.

Four <SPAN id="lw_1249578258_0" class="yshortcuts">Guantanamo prisoners</SPAN> who were released to Bermuda in June have been given jobs tending a <SPAN id="lw_1249578258_1" class="yshortcuts">public golf course</SPAN> on the tiny Atlantic island.</P></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://news.yahoo.com/s/nm/20090806/od_nm/us_bermuda_guantanamo"><P>
The hiring raised eyebrows in the British territory, where employers can only take on foreigners if no qualified local wants the job. Wendall Brown, chairman of the board of trustees for Bermuda's <SPAN id="lw_1249578258_4" class="yshortcuts">public golf courses</SPAN>, said the men replaced a group of Filipino workers who left at short notice.</P></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://news.yahoo.com/s/nm/20090806/od_nm/us_bermuda_guantanamo"><P>
Their imprisonment continued long after the <SPAN id="lw_1249578258_12" class="yshortcuts">U.S. military</SPAN> and courts determined that they posed no threat. The United States said it could not send them to China because they faced persecution there, but U.S. politicians blocked plans to settle them in the United States.</P></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://news.yahoo.com/s/nm/20090806/od_nm/us_bermuda_guantanamo"><P>
Expatriates make up a third of the work force in Bermuda, which has a population of 65,000 and requires permits to work. Brown said the golf course worked with immigration officials to get the men permission to work.</P></blockquote></div><div style="margin: 0px 6px 6px 4px;"><table style="font-size: 11px;border-spacing: 0px;padding: 0px;" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"><tr><td style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;">&nbsp;</td><td align="right" style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;width:107px" width="107"><a href="http://clipmarks.com/share/210A809F-20D7-4363-B916-B9B26FF8DAAA/blog/" title="blog or email this clip"><img src="http://content6.clipmarks.com/images/c2b-foot.png" border="0" alt="blog it" width="107" height="17" style="border-width:0px;padding:0px;margin:0px;" /></a></td></tr></table></div></div>
