Michael Jackson is for sure going to relocate into the Persian Gulf, as the pop star has been looking for a house here and actually has been shopping for real estate in this area. He has also been spotted in glitzy malls, and the latest clue: he is now going to interviews for a job.

Jackson, who was acquitted on child molestation charges in California last year, is negotiating a position as a consultant with a Bahrain-based company that plans to set up theme parks and music academies in the Middle East, according to a press release.
AAJ Holdings Ltd., owned by Ahmed Abu Bakr Janahi, said it wants to hire 47-year-old Jackson to give advice on setting up entertainment businesses. Jackson's publicist, Raymone K. Bain, couldn't be reached to comment about this situation yet.

AAJ, which focuses mainly on urban development projects, played a key role in designing Bahrain's ongoing Financial Harbor development and Oman's Blue City, a multibillion-dollar tourist resort with golf courses, hotels and several dozen miles of sandy beaches.

"Stagnant architectural structures need content in the form of entertainment to revive them and that's where Michael Jackson will play an integral role," the statement said.

Jackson is reportedly building a home in Bahrain, an island nation in the Persian Gulf linked to Saudi Arabia by a bridge. In his last known visit to Dubai in November, he was seen checking out some of the world's priciest real estate developments. His host at the time, Emirates champion rally driver Mohammed bin Sulayem, said Jackson was considering buying property here.

News reports out of Manama, the Bahraini capital, have quoted Jackson's publicist as saying the pop star is in the process of finalizing his Hurricane Katrina relief song, which will be released on 2 Seas Records and will also include the voices of Keisha Cole, Ciara, Snoop Dogg, Babyface and R. Kelly.

As for Jackson's new job as a consultant, we can only wait and see what happens...
