backward thinking and wrong interpretation
Posted by infedel at 17:49 UAE time
Jebel, how can one agree or disagree with a community that doesn't take very well to criticism? It is always negative and short sighted I'm afraid to say. It won't be long though, they can't keep women away from TV or internet or mobiles. It is either back to camels and off with petroleum to the western world, or embrace the western way. Not all western trends are bad. One must take what is useful and throw out what is not. This community lacks the vision to see further down the mirage. Their conception is limited and misguided. Women should learn to stick it to the man. Enough I say with this barberic cruelty. But why should the rest of the world care? They don't, and it is their way of life, we should respect it. All we can do is advise and comment, and that is all we should do. In my opinion, and By God, any man treating my mum less than a saint will be hanged. Cheers and good luck to you all.

Do your homework Srivatsa

There are plenty of Muslim countries where women have powerful positions, although Saudi Arabia is not one of them.
Take a look at the Central Bank Governors of Pakistan, Malaysia and Indonesia-all are women.
Sri Lanka (while not a majority Muslim country) had a woman PM back in the 1960s and Bangladesh has Sheikh Hasina Wajed as their current PM (Khaleda Zia had the job around 20 years ago) and that is a majority Muslim country.
Megawati Sukarnoputri was the President of Indonesia a few years ago, while Mame Madior Boye ran Senegal (a majority Muslim country) around eight years ago.

What?
Posted by Jebel Ali Baba at 10:04 UAE time
Dear Srivatsa. Women are allowed to vote since the early days of democracy in Europe. Only Switzerland was a bit late. In the communist countries women were totally equal to men by constitution.
Andd the last 100 years changed a lot. Indusyrialization, wars, technical revolution and the age of information and mobility changed mankind quicker than ever.
Only a small region in the world denies these changes to their female population. The men are allowed to use cars, travel freely, rule the economy and politics. Women are second class in these countries. And why? Because a backward thinking and wrong interpretation of Islam...
There is no justification for the gruelties and depression of women in Saudi Arabia.

Saudi women - Time to retaliate - throw the abaya
Posted by Pradeep Naik at 09:32 UAE time
Domination or depriving human rights, Under the abaya is a Mother,sister,wife & so on. Not just a imported slave housemaid to work for you Saudi Men 24/365.
Ladies should act against the Government, boycott all Men's activities & demand all women shops & other necessary things in life. Including a MP who will listen women to women.
Enough of Men to women talks. These so called Men are scared of women power they should be wearing abaya to hide their face & decision.
I wish all women in Saudi should deny giving birth for next few years, then all these oldies & young generation will start to realise what women is worth for.
Other than doing house work. No gym for their fitness what a shame, then take out the hospital where male doctors are operating on your women.
Do not travel out of country with a women for her treatment or honeymoon.
Wake up man,before you will start hunting for another men.

Were not women treated badly in the western world? They were not allowed to vote till recently. Saudi is still a developing country, don't criticise so bad, they will improve. Women will come up in this part of the world. Talbisation will come to an end as god will not accept it.

This is just a tip of the iceberg, Saudi got by far the nastiest system for any kind of business! Not allowed, you can't, no this, no that, no,no,no all you hear ... Why on earth would anyone invest in a business in that place!

Give me the job!
Posted by Don Ho at 18:14 UAE time
So just to make a point, this lady shuts her business (which is what the men wanted anyway) and puts all her ladies out of work - and they won't get a job anywhere else in Jeddah, will they?
How about just do it - find some quiet little man with a bit of managerial experience, pay him a decent salary so he just sits in his office and attends meetings playing with his Blackberry, and let the wormen get on with running the company.
Hey - does it have to be a Saudi? I'll do it, and I promise not to interfere with the big decisions!

saudi male boss issue
Posted by bewildered of dubai at 16:13 UAE time
The best way to ensure women cant win and have to close their companies. Either appoint a male D.G. or close the business themselves. Either way the company folds. Pre-pre stoneage, except stone age man was probably never so judgemental. Ho hum; they'll be allowing divorce for 8 year olds next..

One step forward, two steps back

Do people not remember the history of Khadija Bint Khuwaylid and the Prophet Mohammed (PBUH)? Only once he proved himself did he get promoted. Men shouldn't be given jobs just because - how are women meant to cope with this new situation.
How ironic that the centre providing the facts and figures is named for her.
