I have relatives there. One came back and has never spoken a word of what went on there but you could see the pain in her eyes. Since she refused to go back, her sister took over her mantle and went. We can only pray for them while there. It is pity where poverty can lead us

The Arabs get satisfaction from using browns (blacks) as slaves believing they are an inferior and low IQ primates. I suspect they are right, otherwise, why do our women still insist on going there?

Sisemi kitu.

@Rahatupu note that kuna tofauti:

We have @Impunity and @Imp unity.

@ impunity pole sana. Admin should censure the clone/counterfeit anakuharibia jina.

On the same note:
1. Have you noticed how people led by activists are quick to blame the government for what befalls private citizens in foreign lands?
2. Have you also noticed that the same activists played a critical role in shaping the Bill of Rights in the constitution? Among them: "A Kenyan has a right to leave Kenya...."

LINKAGE?

Control of travel to such destination by people of the profile that is tortured/mistreated/frozen....

HOW?
1. Restriction in issuance of Passports
2. Denial of departure to such destinations.

So far touching the bill of rights is out of the question. Plan B?

Not very easy to effect but includes control of employment agencies sending our girls to the Gulf states. Enforcing this will only make them go underground but still operate effectively. Since all one needs is the contact of the operative on the Gulf end (read telephone number/email etc) to continue with the trade. Most of these girls learn about the "opportunities" by word of mouth. A bigger number of agents do not operate from offices. Unfortunately if Kenya cannot create enough opportunities this evil human trade will persist.

@Kingfisher,
you have raised an important question I never thought of it that way.Where did all those black people disappear to?
I recently watched an African Journal feature showing black people in the Indian subcontinent who had ancestral roots in Africa.

Really sad. I can understand from the househelps view, that they can finally earn a decent living, but I question if they now know what goes on in Saudi, would they still go?? I have read quite a few of these stories, its really sad. Rather than admonish the women who go there, lets inform/educate them of the living conditions they will be facing. Its not worth it at all.
Saudi sikanyagi, if you can put a dead body in your fridge/freezer, hiyo chakula yenu siwezi kula, did they still store their food in that fridge? Inhumane!!

Spoken like ten great elders.

A Saudi employer has chopped off her maid's hand in punishment for poor work, after months of mistreatment in the kingdom.

The lady is Indian, and -

India has said it had lodged a protest with authorities in Riyadh after a maid from Tamil Nadu allegedly had her hand chopped off by her Saudi employer for complaining about her work conditions.
India's foreign minister deplored a "brutal" attack on 55-year-old Kasthuri Munirathinam, who is now being treated at a hospital in Riyadh, and which comes weeks after a Saudi diplomat based in New Delhi fled the country accused of rape.
