Just curious: why do any Indonesians go work in SA?
Be cause it sucks in their country!!!
Money....
Same with Filipinos, Pakistanis, Indians, Sri Lankans, Americans, and Europeans....
For Third Worlders like Indonesians and Filipinos. one person working in Saudi can support an entire family back home. But they are treated very badly. One surrenders one’s passport when working long-term in Saudi and is issued an ‘iqama’, i.e. a residence permit. Your employer holds your passport, and even if you get it back you have to get an exit visa in order to leave. If you’re working, let’s say, as a domestic, you are at the mercy of the male head of household. Obviously this leads to a lot of abuses.
There is a definite pecking order, Americans, Canadians, and Euros at the top, closely followed by Japanese and Koreans, then probably Indians and Pakistanis and Filipinos, then the Indonesians and Sri Lankans and Somalis etc at the bottom. The higher up the better you are treated but if you’re an infidel you’re still an infidel.
I could go on and on... how much time do you have ?! LOL.
