It should be very obvious to you. . .why do Saudi need imported labor? Because the locals do not work since it is above their dignity and therefore look down on all others who work. Saudis treat those workers like 3rd class people and abuse them for their own pleasure. These workers all come from countries and places where there are no opportunities to earn a living and unemployment is above 35%. They are desperate to earn money to support the families back in the home country.

I can say that most people, and that includes other nationalities not mentioned, will go to Saudi Arabia to earn a decent living if the opportunities are not offered elsewhere. For workers who are doing menial jobs like house help, general labour and some construction workers, the pay is low compared to the hardship they have to deal in their work. However, if their job is technical, managerial or supervisory in nature, they usually earn higher compared with the same work back home. Another factor that should be considered is the Saudi way of life which has a lot of constraints compared to other countries. If people can not adopt, then life in Saudi will be difficult. For men, no booze (there is a local brew called sadiki but you do not know if it will affect your health since it has no quality review), no ladies and parties (if you do not know where to look..). Take note that Saudi society is a lot open than 10 years ago and i bet more social and political changes are forthcoming. So to summarize, it all boils down to how much you need the money and how much you are willing to adopt to the local way of life. People will complain but come back working in Saudi if they can not find any decent job elsewhere.I am a Filipino who have worked in Saudi Arabia for more than 8 years. I am working here in Kuwait, an open country, however I am still applying for a job there.

Many Filipinos and Indonesian come from low-income families plus it's really hard to find a job in their own country since there's A LOT of people competing for jobs there. Kind of like here in US where the most-struggling places are, except a little bit worse. So what they do is apply for abroad and find a job there instead. Many Filipinos/Indonesian go to Saudi Arabia because it is one of the easiest countries to be accepted to. By the way, it's really hard to get out of the country when you're in Philippines(probably in Indonesia too) because the government looks at your background and income to make sure you have the money. So you pretty much have to be rich. I don't know why it's like that, but that's how it works over there. Anyway, these people that work in Saudi Arabia are trying to earn money for their families in Philippines/Indonesia that they left behind. They don't like it because of how strict Saudi Arabian customs are. Plus, some bosses or managers can also be mean. My cousin is a private nurse for a PRINCESS in Saudi which at first, I was jealous about. I mean sounds freakin amazing right? But as she started telling me more about how they treat her there, I'd rather be where I'm at now. I'm not going to share her experience there on here but she said that she feels like a prisoner and she would rather go back home to Philippines than be working in the palace. So that should tell at least a little about how it is in Saudi.

Probably because of a lot of bad press of their treatment in Saudi Arabia. regardless if the foreign worker was innocent or not. bad press is bad press. Not to mention that Saudi Arabia's laws do NOT adequately protect the safety and well being of foreign workers, most importantly the freedom to leave and cancel their contracts. that freedom is at the whim of their employer, and thus gets easily abused by bad employers.
6 :
they come in saudi arabia for money and different culture and language(sometime some abuse) encourage them to hate saudi arabia.
7 :
It's because lots of employers treat their workers badly, they beat them and speak rudely to them, some women even get treated as prostitutes and raped. Not every Saudi household is like that, but if you want your servants to like you, you've got to treat them well.

The people who go to saudi for work are lucky. I say saudi arabia is kingdom of humanity. In this time many countries are in trouble because of economic downturn and because of the rules they have. The people who hate to work or hate to live in Saudi are i should say;out of their minds man!!.
