"Qatar is looking to recruit maids from Bosnia, Kosovo, and Macedonia because it won’t have to “guarantee them certain rights” — or a minimum wage. According to El-Awlawya Manpower Recruiting Agency in Doha, Bosnians and Macedonians will get paid a minimum of $190 a month." "Naturally, news about the imminent arrival of Bosnians and Macedonians — the first European maids to work in the Gulf — has been extremely controversial. Some local media report that Qatari women worry that their marriages and “social stability” will be threatened by “beautiful European women”. Others have suggested that no Balkan housemaid over 45 should be allowed to work in a Qatari home." Slavery still exists....and its NOT how u remember it, interesting article... balkanist.net/qatar-seeks-balkan-housemaids/
