Nonetheless,...I read this article too late I guess. Nonetheless, I have a few comments on it:<br />1- Housemaids are underpaid and abused in the Gulf states in general as there is no law protecting their rights as labor or human. No wonder they'll seek other ways of making money<br />2- Poverty combined with lack of morals and suppressed society with lots of wealth on the other hand creates an ideal environment for prostitution. <br />3- The article somehow accused expats to be the client, while in fact from what I noticed is that locals i.e. Omanis are by far the clients<br />4- The article didn't touch on the fact that many reich Omanis have imported or found ladies mainly from Morocco to have them as mistresses. In change they offer them loads of money for their relationship. This is also prostitution. Ironically many of these girls still prostitute themselves despite they don't need to, which makes one think whether their sponsors are not in fact their pimps. <br />5- The shocking fact is that Omani society like its sister societies in the Gulf states live in a hypocrisy between religion and moral corruption.<br /><br />Thanks to Saleh for addressing this issue and I hope that one day this matter will be addressed more and more publicly so this phenomena can be corrected in the right way respecting the basic human rights.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6283845125208268798.post-51691055882172168522010-12-17T08:50:41.335+04:002010-12-17T08:50:41.335+04:00Laws & Rules are made by us humans and are bro...Laws & Rules are made by us humans and are broken by the same .. these have become selfish instruments for one's own interest .. morality is a relative subject .. your defination of morality may not be quite different from the rest ..for some .. living in with girlfriend is a taboo ..Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6283845125208268798.post-90144740651271421662010-07-16T01:56:14.045+04:002010-07-16T01:56:14.045+04:00@Anonymous

The Holiday Inn was heir favoured haunt any years ago (now Muscat Holiday), then the Golden Toilet, then....the simple fact is I know of Omani's who go to Thailand bring them back for this reason. They are 'sponsors'. What is worse; a young woman making money from the oldest profession or a Muslim making (not earning - 'making') money from immoral earnings?

They were not so subtle...even quoting prices.<br /><br />Mogalpolly - "who beat her? Certainly not the guy who laid with her." Highly possible it was, don't ever rule that out. I have found that in Muscat, domestic or sexual violence to women is very hush hush...but it doesn't mean it isn't there. A lot of times the person who is beating her is often the person who paid to lay with her.Hearts and Hands for Nepalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08933372121103152000noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6283845125208268798.post-60242503067572687242009-05-02T12:17:00.000+04:002009-05-02T12:17:00.000+04:00This comment has been removed by the author.Jet Driverhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08244136139124941733noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6283845125208268798.post-14257541875934527312009-05-02T11:38:00.000+04:002009-05-02T11:38:00.000+04:00Although, there is no denying the facts, I dont bu...Although, there is no denying the facts, I dont buy the whole story written by Saleh. While the story is well written there are many gaping holes which a reader who is looking for the truth will find out. <br /><br />Like for instance, why did Nanda have bruises on her face. Who beat her? Certainly not the guy who laid with her. Or in what capacity is this car tyre salesman who is giving those nuggets of wisdom.<br /><br />If someone is having an illegal affair with someone's else husband or wife, does that also construe prostitution. <br /><br />What about sponsors who give money to their housemaids in return for sex. isn't that also prostitution? <br /><br />Tomorrow, if someone follows me going to my girl friends's place and then calls the police, will i be hauled up for prostitution?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6283845125208268798.post-42119370463158705292009-05-02T10:35:00.000+04:002009-05-02T10:35:00.000+04:00I Sanjeev Prabhu is a pseudonym for Conrad.

They have no choice but to engage in prostitution. They can’t leave because their passports, by law, are held by sponsors. They can’t go to the law because they would not be believed and may end up in prison,” Sanjeev Prabhu, a Muscat-based car tyre salesman said.</I>Hmm.. maybe they are the one and the same person!<br /><br />There's a lot more input from Omani journalists then we see!!!
