planning to work in saudi arabia? think twice

[pigrah]

---

See, imu lan jud gipakita ang imu pagka Crab. hehe
Nganu imu i deny nga naay mga pag abuso diha sa mga pinoy? nya imu pa jud ipalabas nga sala nah nila? oiss..

Are you sure kabalo ka sa tanan nga nahitabo dha? pag sure oi, it doesnt mean wa mi dha di mi kabalo sa natitabo nga mga pag abuso.

Pero mao lagi, imu man gi base sa imu pagka haruhay ang pag generalize sa sitwasyun dha.. ceg nlan..

Peace..

ikaw dong...sakto ka--ky wala ka dri sa mid east wa jud ka kahibaw sa situation dri nyahaha

obviously, u dont have any idea wat u are talking about. wa ka kahibaw unsay mga binuhatan sa fellow piinays dri--w/c is a disgrace(mostly). ma ulaw na lang ko na mahimuot ky everytime(and i mean EVERYTIME) starring jud ang pinay when its cases about illicit relations in the newspaper. now how would u feel about that? how do u think that reflects on the other filipinas who are working here?

Back to the topic...like sir Fingolfin said, KSA base thier laws in Sharia. No exceptions, ma pinay ka, saudi or watever nationality. Have u read the news about the Saudi girl from Qatif who was gang raped? and did u know that that place is Shia dominated which is a minority in KSA? do u even understand or imagine wat that means? If kahibaw jud ka pls..feel free to reply. Thank u.

simpleng istorya...mga arabo way au.....way kalooi...ang pinoy wa kasavot,mangadto sa saudi para paulipon,kita va mog arabo sa cebu?wahaha..hadlok maolipon...

.. i have to agree with you on this, that SOME or MOST of the arabs are no-good. But an arab friend of mine told me these words, it really is helpful when you start being judgemental ... he told me:

look at your hands, your fingers aren't of the same size, right ?? but they're still your fingers. It can be said the same with people, whereever you go, there will be different types of people, the good and the bad, but they're still people

.. i hope you guys will ponder on that too.


.. and saying that MANGADTO SAUDI PARA PAULIPON, well, that's kinda harsh and that's a generalization from a person who truly doesnt know the situation. Take my case, did i come here to be "enslaved" or for greener pastures You might believe me or not, let's just say i'm financially stable there in the philippines, but the reason i came here is coz i'm bored and i want to do something radical when I reach the age of 30. This opportunity came to me, a very good friend of mind called and invited me to come, so, here i am. I have a very good relationship with my employer and i have no problems so far, aside from the obvious MINGAW. But this is what i wanted, to experience what it's like to work abroad coz my father was working all over the world for 20 years now and is still doing it, i want to emulate him. When I grow old I could always look back that on the age of 31, i was here in saudi. but that's my case.....


.. but, sadly, the truth is, MOST of the filipinos here came to make money, but isnt that just being practical Look, let's just say you're an engineer and your salary in the phillipines is 30k pesos but you are offered a 100k salary and free of everything here in saudi .... would you still say no


.. and back to the DH, most DH here are just HS graduates, let's face it, how can you get a job with only a HS diploma in the philippines They come here coz it offers a substantial salary ( for their standards ). But again, that's just being practical.


.. but sadly, even here in Taif, the filipina women are MALANDI, but only to their own countrymen not to arabs. We have a KABAYAN MARKET here, it's where pinoys come to buy grocery. But then again, when you're in a foreign country and you see a fellow pinoy, it's such a relief and eventhough i hate tagalog, i find it beautiful to listen.



.. i understand why some of our members here are angry towards the arabs and take pity on their countrymen, but let me just suggest that you SEE IT ON A WIDER PERSPECTIVE. Dont focus only on the RAPE, MALTREATMENT issues, that is happening all over the world, not just here in Saudi. But ask yourself first this WHY HAVE THEY GONE TO ABROAD ?? ... and then look at our country right now. And for sure, you'll see the answer to that question.

simpleng istorya...mga arabo way au.....way kalooi...ang pinoy wa kasavot,mangadto sa saudi para paulipon,kita va mog arabo sa cebu?wahaha..hadlok maolipon...

ang taga cebu mo adto manila para mo trabaho
ang taga cebu mo adto sa middle east para mo trabaho
ang taga cebu mo adto mindanao para mo trabaho

mo adto lain lugar aron para mo trabaho
naka lahi lang tingali mo adto middle east kai lain ug culture ug layo

[myroxanne]

share lang pud ko, naa koy cousin na nagtrabaho sa Jobel (hope sakto akong spelling) then naka kita gyud siya g filipina na gidala sa OR kay raped victim daw to siya, though wala ko ni ask sa iyaha kung unsay nationality sa nag raped sa filipina.

then karon nag follow up ko kung unsay nahitabo sa babae, ingon siya na wala ra daw nipasaka ug case or ni reklamo sa authority ang babae kay mao ra daw istoryaha, dili kuno gihapon mahataga-an ug hustiya ang nahitabo niya.

comment lang ko aning mga kabayan nato, tinuod na na few sa atong mga kabayan na DH mao gyud mag una-una sa ato pong kabayan labina katong mga uhaw sa lawasnon na kalipay or dili man lang atong mga kabayan kung dili uban pud na lahi. i am a witnessed of that, filipina's perting kupot sa bukton sa lalaki na dili gyud parihas nato or filipina's naning kaau mo selbe sa mga lalaki na minyo.

siguro safe ang saudi kung lalaki ang mo trabaho pero kung babae gani, dili siguro safe labina if naay gubot gubot wala kaau kusog ang mga babae.

[poy]

Based sa mga stories sa mga kaila nako nga tua na didto, advantageous man tingali para sa mga wife nga ang ilang husband tua didto...kay mapugos ug focus sa trabaho. Kay stricto daw didto in terms of extramarital affairs...LOL

[SioDenz]

hahahha
unsaon
mas naka hibaw na ang naa sa pilipinas compara sa 8 years nga naa na didto wakekeke
good luck

murag wala man tingali niya gi deny nga walai pang abuso
kasagaran nasud mo laban jud sa ilahang kaugalingon nga citizen
kung gi daug2x pa tanan OFW... wala tingali mag dugay ug 10years
diri sa singapore.. almost thesame... kung naka patay ka.. good luck... dili siya mag duha2x ug bitay nimo
ang batas ai batas.. their own citizen comes 1st ... either mag binootan ka or uli sa pilipinas

Kinsa may ni ingun tanan OFW gidaug daug or gi abuso? ang akong point is naay daghan natu mga kababayan sa saudi nga naabuso, nga dili dapat i general nga ang Saudi nindto kaayu kay di tanan nindot kaayu ug pagkabutang didto, mao na ako POINT.

Tan awa, ikaw ray ga ingun ha nga mulaban jud an usa ka nasud sa ilaha citizen. So dili tanan pinoy sa saudi nindot kaayu pagkabutang kay naay uban nga wa nahatagn ug justice kay lagi ang givt nilaban sa local. hope mkasabot ka sa ako point.

Nya sa singapore bro tanan pinay nga maids dha nindot pagka butang? basin wala ka kabalo nga naay NGO dha nga nag sagop sa mga pinay nga biktima sa pagabuso sa ila mga amu nya di kauli kay way passpot.

[SioDenz]

Hinay2 bro, kinsa man kaha nato ang mas nakahibaw sa nahitabo diri? IKAW? nyahahaah!
Kasabot bah kah unsay pasabot anga Crab mentality bro? or basin Crab nga kasag ra imo nailhan? Read between the lines of my previous posts bro.
Sa Middle East walay bias ang balaod , last year one of the members of the Royal family and some other MP's were put on trial for corruption case kay ang mga members of the PArliament had presented a hard evidence , videos,night club bills against the culprits while having a business trip in Japan. Kabalo kah anhe bro? Wala noooh?

Again, hinay2 sa imong istorya kay ikaw gadepende lang kah sa balita while kami hard facts amo gebasehan bro dili hearsay.

I dunno, if naa pa diri nakasave sa ila fon sa katong video nga gecirculate sa cp nga kuha sa katong Saudian national geputlan tawn sa iyaha did2 mismo sa usa ka plaza sa Saudi kay nang-rape ug 12 years old nga expat nga bata, miasmo ang bikitma pa ang naa sa front row sa crowd, ang biktima mismo wa kaagwanta sa iyang nawitness.
I'm sure again, wa sad tawn kay knowledge adto dong?

Ang media sa middle east are controlled by the gov't .labi nah ug mga gorrific na kaayo ang mga scenes of the crime dili parehas sa atua nga celebrated & sensatioanlized kaayo like Maguindanao massacre hemoan pagani ug DVD.

5 months ago, 5 Kuwaiti's we're arrested & faced a death penalty for simply putting up a conspiracy towards American camps here.Di bah American's are just expats in Kuwait?

Now let me ask you my dear, sa atua bah , mapersecute ug masilotan in due process ang mga corrupt nga gov't officials? Naay inyong Erap diha ug uban pang mga nasenstensyahan Honasan, Trillanes, etc. mangandidato pa man gani? Sa middle east probably , we must admit yes there is a discrimination between expats & citizens just like any other foreign country, but hey, don't you tell me na walay discrimination sa U.S.?
C'mon!
Like what i said, and I'll have to repeat this over & over again.
If you want speedy judicial system, we must adapt the gulf laws, particularly on henious crimes.
Bro, again, sakit man dawaton ang mga tinood nahitabo sa atong nasud, but, please, it's about time that you shud open your eyes to the reality, we all know that, at times, Reality bites jud.

@ fingolfin,
Hang on there doc! Working in the middle east will really transform your life emotionally & spiritually and will enable you to grow more as an individual. You will discover a lot of things in your surroundings, your fellow kababayans. Mas sakit tan-awon bro imo kapwa kabayan maoy mobiktima sa iya kaugalingon kalahi.
Wait & see more & discover more.
If you are one teh type of nationalistic, there are circumstances taht you're gonna witness that will let you ask yourself, "Naunsa man tawn neh atong kababayan woi" Why do such, engage into such activities, etc.?

FYI
I've been working here in the gulf for nearly 8 years now. And i'm not a nurse or a doctor yet I gained respect, because I earned it, from my fellow expats as well as from gulf citizens much as I gained respect from my Bisaya neighbors back in Cebu na pwerte ka mga suyaon,tsismosa, hilabtanon ug libakera.
My dad used to work in K.S.A. too as a Chief Engineer in a port when I was little.

I know unsay nahitabo sa atu nasud bro, kabalo ko nga bati kaayu compare sa lain nasud, OFW baya ko. ako point lan nga di nimu dapat i generalize nga nindot kaayu ang isa ka nasud tungod sa imu personal experience kay bisag unsa pa ka kadugay dha, di jud ka kalimud nga daghan pinoys dha nga naabuso nga hangtod kay way hustisya. nya ug sila ako pangutan on if nindot ba an nasud ila gitrabahuan? unsa kahay tubag nila?


PEACE..

Naa nsad ning I generalize, ayaw lagi dodong kay dili TANAN pinoy dha nag binuang. What if mu ingun ko kay pinoy ka utro sad kang way ayo dha ug batasan, ganahan ka? di man na mailod daghan badlungon pinoy dha pero ayaw lagi tawn i generalize kay daghan tawn nag tinarung dha nya gi abuso oi.

PEACE...

[gubaon]

So dili tanan pinoy sa saudi nindot kaayu pagkabutang kay naay uban nga wa nahatagn ug justice kay lagi ang givt nilaban sa local. hope mkasabot ka sa ako point.
