Saudi Arabia is a wealthy country (has biggest oil deposit). There are many guest workers for the oil companies, laborers, housemaids, nurses. Christians have to meet in secret, because Islam is the only religion officially allowed....they have so-called religious police, who make sure everyone keeps the Islamic laws and that women dress in the right way.
I heard that a lot of women are very cruel and distant to their foreign maid.
