Create another measure as follows for this kind of visuals that have multiple values for Expat/National like "Manager", "Director" and so on .... (But don't delete the current measure. You will need it for other scenarios)

 

FY21 Scenario Closing Projection HC Expat_National V2 = 
VAR __raw = [Latest HC] + [Preboarding Pipeline] + [Additional approved Exp Hire] + [Additional Approved Graduate] - [Confirmed Exists] - [Exit Pipeline]
VAR SumExpatValues = [Expat_ED Value]+[Expat_M Value]+[Expat_P Value]+[Expat_S Value]+[Expat_S/A Value]+[Expat_SM Value]
VAR SumNationalValues = [National_ED Value]+[National_M Value]+[National_P Value]+[National_S Value]+[National_S/A Value]+[National_SM Value]
VAR X =
    SELECTEDVALUE ( Nationality[National/Expat_P] )
RETURN
    SWITCH (
        SELECTEDVALUE ( Nationality[National/Expat_P] ),
        "Expat", SumExpatValues,
        "National", SumNationalValues
) + __raw
