Respect Saudi female flight attendants
OkazA few years ago, I read that Saudi Arabian Airlines had starting employing Saudi women in some of their internal departments, such as information technology and other divisions; jobs that have no direct contact with customers. At the time, I wondered why Saudi women were not being employed as attendants on domestic flights, since that is just like any other public job.A female flight attendant will leave home to go to her place of work. When she is inside the airplane, she is not isolated with men, but is in a place that is full of passengers and in a situation that is governed by rules and regulations. She will return to the airport, get into her car and drive home at the end of the day. If she happens to be forced to stay in another city for emergency reasons, she will stay in a...

Denying marriage choices!
OUR Arabic literature is full of romantic stories which did not end happily because of family intervention and rejection of couples’ choices. Qais ibn Almulwaah couldn’t marry Lila Alamria because her father says no — for no apparent reason. Over a thousand and hundreds of years later, his poems of love and pain tell us tales of generations of lovers who were denied their basic right: to decide who to marry.The pretty girl was accepting her fate. She simply told the love of her life, with broken heart and voice: “My family said no!”He, too, seemed to understand. Such is life! But both didn’t really absorb why couldn’t two young hearts be able to unite, if that was what they very much wanted?The young man is what Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) describes as the best...

Nosy people are sick!
Al-YaumEvery time I think that we no longer have any nosy people in our society who try to dictate what other people should and should not do, I discover that we actually still have a lot of them. We all know that the freedom of one person ends where the freedom of others begins. This means that as long as people are dealing with themselves or their family, dealing with their own money and do not abuse the rights of others, then no one has the right to criticize them or to dictate what they should do, even if it comes in the form of advice.Not long ago, I read very negative comments that were directed as a famous social figure in our society, just because he posted a picture of himself standing with his granddaughter at her graduation ceremony. I have read many similar comments with regard...

Pakistanis celebrate Jinnah’s birth anniversary
THE Pakistan Repatriation Council (PRC) recently organized a seminar in Jeddah to mark the birth anniversary of Quaid-e-Azam Muhammad Ali Jinnah, who is considered to be the founder of the Islamic Republic of Pakistan. Some leaders of the Pakistani community in Jeddah attended the event, which began with the recitation of a few verses from the Holy Qur’an.This was followed by a speech session in which several dignitaries paid rich tributes to Jinnah, the great Muslim leader of the Indian subcontinent. The speakers noted that Jinnah enabled the leaders of All India Muslim League to realize their dream of a separate nation for the Muslims of the subcontinent so that they can safeguard their interests and rights from the hegemony of Hindus.As a customary practice of Pakistanis on such...

The evil ‘Hamadain’ peddle the Brotherhood commodity!
No matter what is said about Qatar, the “Hamadain regime” and Al Jazeera channel, the small will never be big. It will never be an influential power even if it hires all the mercenaries in the world!Qatar has not stopped interfering in the affairs of other countries. It is unrivaled in playing a malicious role in serving the interests of terrorist doctrines, which are sponsored by Doha itself. It invites ideologues of political Islamization movements as well as extremist and violent groups to reside in the most luxurious residences in the capital of the “Hamadain” in order to hatch conspiracies against other countries.This is the role that the Qatari leadership continues to play, despite the huge losses suffered by the state, because of the boycott of the four countries that...

Why energy-boosting drinks are harmful
Although energy drinks have been around since the mid-eighties, their target audience has gradually shifted to the young. Through clever marketing and branding with youth activities, most of these body-boosting drink companies are making themselves part of the daily diet of many young Saudis and expatriates.They are found in the drink’s section of supermarkets everywhere; most come with exotic names and in eye-catching containers. But are these drinks, which are primarily targeting our youth, harmful in the long run? Should parents and schools not sit up and take notice?Take the case of one such popular energy drink sold in our supermarkets and consumed on a daily basis by many of our young. It could be fatal. It was initially created to stimulate the brains in people who are subjected...

What are real American principles?
Al-MadinahAn American woman sent a message to those who are attacking President Trump and who are asking people to uphold higher American principles. In the message she asked them to stop for a minute and think about these American principles. She said that she cannot understand what these people are talking about. She added that those who believe in the American dream need to seek help from mental institutions, because they are in desperate need of psychiatric evaluation.She reminded people that part of these so-called principles was the annihilation of tens of millions of Native Americans so that their land could be stolen. That was an American principle. She also said that most Americans do not know the truth about the attack on Pearl Harbor attack that was allowed to happen so that...

35,000 jobs for Saudis in grocery stores!
Al-MadinahThe Minister of Commerce was not mistaken when he recently said that the ministry had 35,000 jobs for Saudis in grocery stores around the Kingdom. His statement was widely criticized on social media. However, in my opinion, these jobs are not meant for university graduates, but rather for citizens who were not able to continue their education.There is nothing wrong with such work as it involves business that can generate a lot of profit. Saudis have the right to benefit from this and earn experience so that in the future they will dominate this field. Everyone will see how their condition will improve when they make a lot of money from engaging in business.When the government helps citizens to work in this field, it gives them the chance to become businessmen. This field was...

Saving the nation’s print media

These initiatives involved the selection and financial support of qualified teams of experts that have worked to overcome the challenges facing some economic sectors.However, little has been done to address the difficult challenges facing the nation’s print media, which is facing an uncertain future and is threatened with closing down. A number of newspapers have announced directly or indirectly that if something is not done soon to address their problems, they may have to cease publication.The projects and vision of the Crown Prince are the only way to save the print media. Financial support and domestic and foreign...

2019: What lies ahead!
Now that we have entered 2019, it is natural to attempt to analyze the information that we have to determine what the new year holds in store for us.America will remain a major driver of events, as it is the center of influence on the world’s politics and economy, but it will continue to face internal political polarization. President Donald Trump will enter into a violent confrontation with Congress, especially as investigations of thorny and inflammatory issues intensify.The independent Mueller investigation extending to members of Trump’s family will have a negative impact on the ability of the president to devote himself fulltime to politics and to accomplish what he promised during his election campaignChina will experience an economic slowdown and will focus its attention on...
