If your a foreign worker you have surrender your passport to the company you work for.

I would never work or live in a place like that.

People do not fully understand once you leave a place like the USA your rights are over.

No marines are coming to get you out of jail or anything, you are pretty much at the mercy of the country you are in.

A place like Saudi Arabia should be avoided at all costs.

I do not have an issue with the everyday people of any country just the "governments" that run them.

I wish the MAGATS would move their or to North Korea or Russia, then they can bitch abut their so called "rights"

In the last few days, I recall seeing an online article about tourism to SA.

This is like "Visit North Korea!" or "See Somalia!"

They must feel like they're missing out on the Dubai/Abu Dhabi/Doha cha-ching.
