So the Amhara region's representative is proud of sending 100s of thousands of their women to KSA as 'maids'?!!?!? This gaajo a*s country will never cease to amaze me

“Due to our country’s strong diplomatic ties with Saudi Arabia, job opportunities for 500,000 Ethiopians, including 150,000 from [the Amhara] region have been made available,” Tsehaye Bogale, a communications official in Ethiopia’s Amhara regional administration said in an official communique.

They are short in cash, so they are trying to make it up in anyway.

What in the legalized human trafficking is that??!?!

Instead of sending more people, they need to assist the already mistreated women suffering from the Kafala 'modern day slavery'. There are at least several 100s of thousands of Ethiopians in Lebanon alone, not to mention other Middle eastern countries as well

We should do this too

 

[Aurelian]

We should do this too

makes sense, Oromos have the human population capacity to ship half a mil.

 

[waffl3r]

We should do this too

Why would you want to send your people to be humiliated and mistreated

 

[GaradShabeel]

Who's we?

Somalis will absolutely *not* be sent to serve Ajnabis in slavery-like conditions, where people are oftentimes mistreated. Some may say that we have maids in our countries, but the abusive nature of the kafala system is on another level. Their employers are horrible as well. Most of them can't even leave the country without approval, let alone change employer. Which gives them free reign to do with the workers as they wish.

We already have bad as it is, and we certainly don't need more problems and hassles that comes with dealing with, whenever one of our citizens get mistreated

I’m fine with sending nurses like philipinos do. I don’t know how long it’ll take for us to be able to do that tho

We already have this. Many jobless women are married off to 70 year old men or are forced into prostitution nowadays. Others tahriib and throw themselves into the sea to get to these countries.

Get them some jobs and have them work a few years and come back. Would provide much needed money into the economy and also lift them out of absolute poverty.

I remember a similar ‘outrage’ when HSM was accused of getting work visa permits from Saudi and women took advantage of that.

I doubt any country wants a ‘nurse’ from Somalia tho. Too many fake degrees and a lack of standards in education.

But Yh hopefully we get to even be able to consider things like this as it would be a sign our education system is producing ppl in demand from higher income countries

 

[Yaraye]

Imagine shipping your own women. no pride. Pathetic!

Yh sure, in a utopia Somalia wouldn’t have been in a civil war and a failed state for 3 decades with no resources to create jobs and suffer from corrupt politicians. I also wouldn’t be a second gen immigrant highly unlikely to ever live permanently in my origin country.

Well now back to the real world…
