Ethiopia is shipping 500.000 maids to Saudi Arabia

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…

Wrong, India, Philippines and Ethiopia receive large remittances from the Arab countries which provides crucial foreign exchange.

Also having such a large migrant population in these countries tends to increase your importance to them and you receive benefits from investment. India has pretty much swallowed UAE for example.

Who's we? :childplease:

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 :manny:
Not even that, it’s only women. Nigga wants Somali women to be shipped out to slavery while the men raaxo and chew khat.
 
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.

Just because people in desperate circumstances are go there and are taken advantage of, doesn't mean that we should provide a legal avenue with the same end result?!?! We should instead discourage them and make sure that they don't end up there in the first place.

In fact, I'm not against people working abroad and in the Middle East for that matter. But unless the kafala system is reformed, we shouldn't proactively facilitate this.

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

He deserved whatever outrage his actions caused. HSM is the same person who denied any abuses was inflicted on foreign maids in KSA. With this mind and him being in a position of authority; are you expecting people to be silent? :draketf:

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 :drakewtf:
“We’re being told that this is an opportunity of a lifetime,” says one recruit attending a session in the northern Amhara region. “I was told that this was a quicker path to success in life than school.”

Absolute CHAD Abiy telling the potential Amhara Jane Austen and Maya Angelou to instead be Jalal's cumbucket

We should do this too
Funny enough, Somalis were one of the ethnic groups not allowed to be maids/domestic workers in Saudi because of us being seen as fellow Arabs. If you go to the households of Riyadh or Jeddah you’d never see a Mauritanian, Sudanese (north), or Egyptian maid.

It was the same for Somalis too before HSM secured a deal for the girls to be accepted as domestic workers in the Gulf.
 
How do Ethiopians not know what the Arabs will do to their sisters when they get there?

That’s what I’m trying to figure out as well.

Many Ethiopians are mistreated, and those stories are widely talked about on social media, with even footages documenting their abuse.

The only reasonable conclusion I can make, is that they are recruiting women from rural areas with little-to-no knowledge about that harsh life. Basically, being sold a false dream.

They know, but they don’t care. The salary they’ll make as a maid in Saudi is more than enough to feed their entire family and put kids through school.

The abuse they face is some of the worst I’ve ever heard of. The savage way they assault these miskiin maids is insane, their sons prey upon the maids, they take their travel paperwork, etc.

What’s messed up is that the Filipino and Indonesian maids don’t face this abuse but the African ones do.

The Filipino Government complained about the way their maids were treated in the Arab world; they complained that their girls came back in caskets.
