I live in Saudi Arabia. I am a non - Muslim. but I love Saudi Arabia no matter what. Their culture and Traditions are great. Mashallah. But some ppl come to Saudi Arabia as a disgrace.
Fatin KM This is not the right way to talk with people who are open minded and know the truth. Many people who aren't Muslims, when you put them on the wound, they heal it.
There were a big challenge for Saudis. They changed the desert to industrial cities, farms and high ways. They built over 45 sea water desalination stations. So, they have their own rivers. During 50 years they achieved silently the greater projects in the world. Changing coumunity, and changing desert environment to a real developed state. Cities are specifically designated for the education system and health care. It's true that they are different but, they absolutely succeeded.
الكل هنا يعلق بالانجلش لاكن انا بعلق عربي لاني سعودي عربي مسلم بلدنا من اعظم البلدان عندنا الاخطاء لاكن نجاحنا اكبر ومو نقص فعلمنا اذا تكلمنا عربي صح الفديو هدفه يصحح نضرة الاجانب لاكن في عرب يدخلو ويشوفو ويمكن عندهم نظرات مغلوطه
ZEzo Alsharif الله يعز السعوديه ويوفقها يارب كلامك جميل ويعجبني وانت على العين والراس احب السعوديه بكل مافيها كلشي فيها حلو ويعجبني وطنية شعبها الغالي افديها بروحي والله
@Reinhart Ottow wrong i have 4 thank certificates in the school and i have been tested a national test because 😎 you know im smart and 5 of my Friends have been tested with me in national test and my last test was 10/10 it was language test and imagine there is 1 person in the class you can say stupid that is real go see the ministry of education of saudi arabia
i'm from Saudi Arabia and i'm a "Girl" also i'm proud of my nationality :) and please learn and read about saudi arabia if you don't know anything about us :) don't writes something wrong please :) i love my country and i love my life here .. finally thanks to god i'm from Saudi Arabia.. ah forgot!! don't believe anyone talks about saudi arabia with hate ^^ be happy:D
I'm just back today from Jeddah. Booming economy. Very well educated people speaking fluently English. Freedom and peace everywhere. Officers and police very friendly and treat us very well at customs and very helpful. I agree with this movie which shows the reality of KSA.
So according to the video, Saudi guys like to drive, chill with their friends, wear 'western' clothes in public, jet ski, go parasailing, and bungee jump, while Saudi women like to...walk and chat. Literally most of the video during that part were just women walking around or sitting.
And I quote: ''oh no america is a very repressed country against women!! no women on the rodeo its all men!!!'' I left out the rest it got pretty boring
Any nation that relies on oil and oil-related industries for 80% of its income is doomed to failure. The Kingdom will be lucky if it's as rich as Yemen once the oil is gone.
I am in an Indian lived a long years in saudi arabia.. after travelling almost every corner of the world.. I feel more peace and comfort life in saudi arabia. i do agree the night life is dead which encourages for bad things. but in return night life in saudi arabia is good if one stay with family and good friends..
To be real, until I started watching these documentaries, I really believed most Saudi women, specifically, were unhappy, oppressed, etc. But it seems most are happy, normal working wives,mothers etc. The education rate is astounding, many hold various degrees in science, medicine, etc. They do these things despite what the world thinks, and to me, that makes them some of the strongest women in the world. The western mainstream media is a joke. If you want to know Islam, ask a Muslim. If you want to know Saudi, ask a Saudi, Pakistan ask a Pakistani. At least research these things your self, and drawn your own opinion before deciding anything negative. Much love from USA ❤️
+RvngeOG oh you are very welcome! My fiancé (who's Pakistani), his 3 brothers and their wives all love on Saudi and they seek quite happy there! (Kind of worried because of Yemen,etc) BUT I just hate how they will show a Saudi woman (who was treated horribly,etc by husband, father,etc) then they'll interview said woman in western media, and of course she's going to say she was oppressed/forced/etc because for HER, Saudi Culture, the birqa,etc,Islam were ALL BAD EXPERIENCES--However that doesn't represent ALL Saudi women which is a HUGE misconception here in USA. I've been studying the Quran,etc and I now know the burka is the woman's choice (in most cases), is Saudi culture (more than it is Islamic), and I have the up,oat respect for any Muslim women but especially Saudis because these educated, awesome, God loving women CHOOSE to cover themselves out of RESPECT AND LOVE FOR ALLAH (GOD) AND because as per Islam, a wife is her husbands QUEEN, she is only meant for HIM to see her body-
+RvngeOG (sorry ran out of room) (and others can see her like father, brother,etc) but seriously, that is awesome to have that much respect for God, AND for not just their husbands, but other woman's husbands,brothers,etc. I commend you all !!!
Thank you. I am not from KSA. well Sheikh Zaid Grand Mosque is one of the best in the world. watch the documentary. one of the top most in charge of the construction is a women who is an engineer and who wears hijab. those people just talk out of hatred for islam, not facts
+Elizabeth Lancaster Lady Give me a break, if you knew islam,,,,,,,,you wouldn't be smiling like this and talking like this. The devil has looks that kill. Don't get taken away.
fiphykhatx In Britain fashion designers are trying to get the Muslim women to wear designer colourful clothes burqhas and hajebs --which, really, I'm sure the women would like to wear
+David Hynes and still they are stuck with the black habayas.I don't get the logic behind a long huge black cloak all year round,all my life.surely they must have some sense to know colourful well cut clothes would look better????
fiphykhatx They daren't do anything to offend fellow Muslims. They must stay within the guidelines and parameters set by this totalitarian regime.Even medical people wear them and they must be aware of the health problems of not letting enough sunlight onto their hair and bodies, and which will cause health problems in their future, and yet they are too 'frightened' not to wear it. This is a modern phenomena. Lots of Muslim women in the 1980's didn't wear these overall coverings.
Abdulaziz Qutub Which will unfortunately take a long time to find its way to all areas of the country! KSA is slow to change, surely you must know that!
Beautiful concept of culture. Love the pictures. Was in Saudi Arabia for 10 years. It has its good side an bad side like any other country. People were super friendly but the men need to learn constraint for women better. No woman likes men throwing papers at her with their numbers unless she's a tramp. But love the footage.
carlinhos juaresma Are you even read the Quran!! It says that allowed 😄 do you think that you know more than Allah!! (27) (22:27) and make a proclamation to the people to come to you for Hajj from far and near, on foot and on lean *46 camels *47 (28) (22:28) so that they may witness the benefits that have been made available here for them: *48 and during the known appointed days, they should mention the name of Allah over the cattle He has provided them : *49 then they may eat their flesh and also give of it to the indigent and needy. And about what you said about our women 😃 will excuse me, but I’m a Saudi woman, and I wear my hijab willingly (any Muslim woman doesn’t wear it for another reason tell her to remove it coz there’s no rewards for it anyway) and I can go anywhere Mr.drama Queen, as long as it’s not a travel that takes more than 3 days, and I can drive my own car, but be known that I respect my parents so much so if they tell me to not do anything I’ll not do it, 😊 I can but I’ll not if that makes them happy and rest, same things for my brothers, because God tells me to do so, not the government or anything else, I know that something can’t be reasonable in some countries but it’s very much here, for both males and females, kids and adults, specially in Muslims countries, not the government or any others opinions of any creature can change it😒, I only care about my God and my parents first, then myself, my family, my people, my nation, my country, and my society, you really don’t know anything about our society or how its people think, and there is no power on this earth can make me believe that you’re care about us like our fathers and brothers do.. and I don’t know why are you talking about them as if they are our enemies, they are our families!! 😄♥️ they are my father, my brothers, my uncles, and they are will be my sons and my love, 😍 say what! Men and women are equal! ☺️ sorry not till the man can be pregnant, otherwise they should work for us and pay for everything, as fathers and brothers or as husbands, 😚😚😚 so keep calm and don’t put your nose where it’s not belong ..specially when no one ask for it 😊
***** For myself English is not my first language it is only my 3rd language,… yet it is 100 times better than yours, if my English was not good enough to write even a normal sentence so people can understand what I am saying I would not even bother....your English is so bad that it is very difficult to understand anything you say... So the best choice for you is to stick to only videos with your Urdu language and only answer to Urdu comments, or you are jut wasting everybody’s time….
I can in believe how nasty and rude people are being on this page. I have had 2 experiences with Saudi men. The first one I was around the age of 18 and he was a Saudi Prince whom I wish I could find him today so I can apologize for not continue seeing this man. He was so nice and very giving,and ordered a glass of milk in the bar, but like myself I think he had misconceptions about Americans. He was very generous to me, but it scared me because I thought that all Saudi men thought that all American women have sexual relations with anyone especially because I live in Las Vegas and that is so far from the truth! I met a man about 15 year's later and I didn't know his nationality but I did go on a date with him. Long story short I have a 12 yr old son with him and he is one of the most loving men I have ever met. His family(and himself) are from Jeddah, Saudi Arabia and they are so beautiful and loving towards my son and I. They are now and will always be my family. If my father was not getting older and in need of my care I would love for us to move to Jeddah. I would love to have a driver, spend time at the malls, travel abroad and spend quality time with family. They visit us regularly and for the terrorists people say they ALL are they must hide it well, Lol! There are terrorists everywhere! Does Timothy McVeigh ring a bell with any Americans?On 9-11 my 6 yr old step daughter was asked if she would warn them if she was going to bomb somewhere. It's very sad that we can't find the good in people and instead talk about each other like we're a bad country, race , or religion. I hope my son grows up to be a very proud Saudi American. I want him to be educated about both countries and I pray to God that he never speaks the hatred I have read on here.
+Marie Hemsley You're words are beautiful and kind. I think that these are hurt people. They want to vent about the 2001 911 horrific terror event not to forget about the other so called terrorist groups that out there. The single terrorist people out there. I don't know if they have lost a single love one in any terrorist matter. If so to all that are spitting virus hate speech it's understood. To those who are saying Islam is a virus they are the true virus. Your right there are terrorist every and in all groups of people.
ladyofperpetualmotion My self-esteem is just fine. Obviously you are an uneducated person. There are good and bad in ALL nationalities. Let me refresh your memory....Do you recall Timothy McVey, the KKK, white supremacist's, Jeffrey Dahmer? I'm sure if you have a brain that you do. I could go on an on, but I hope you got my point! Who exactly are you to judge other people? Open your eye's child.
Yasmin Edmonson Thank you for being one of the two people who agree with me. I just saw your reply and wanted you to know that it did not go unnoticed. Islam is certainly not a virus. People should be able to believe as they so choose as long as hatred and spitting cruel word's at others. I pray that someday we all come to except each other regardless of race or religion. That would be a beautiful day!
Look at all this hate in the comments. As an American, sometimes I'm ashamed at how much my country talks down about the middle East. It's really not that bad. Who are we to say what works well for them and what doesn't? Do you want the whole world to be just like you, your culture, your values etc? Sounds like a boring world.
" Look at all this hate in the comments. As an American, sometimes I'm ashamed at how much my country talks down about the middle East" All comments by Americans? You are thinking too high about America. Your comment is actually about yourself. For your info, most comments on RUclips are by non Americans. We non Americans know better than you what real Saudi is like. It's simply a society created by the greatest enemy of humanity - Muhammed the thug.
The old Saudi images are very romantic, they remind me of the Wild West in the USA. The new images, while impressive, are dull. It would be like visiting another LA. How boring is that? The women are not allowed to drive there, correct?
Yes, we didn't drive here come to the DC.riyadh, jeddah, damam, or any city you want i'm sure they will enamour you. we all receive you here, have a good time if you decided to come xo
They do have a woman race car driver and a female pilot, although she must be driven to the airport. She flies the very large royal 747. They have many women professionals, doctors, lawyers, accountants, running major banks. I think Saudi men in these major cities even prefer their wife be a College Grad and business professional. Then you have dual income. They have families to raise too. One thing I do love is that the families all live close together. Each with their own home but sometimes sisters, sisters-in-law live right across the street, or some have not only a private kitchen but a main kitchen so the whole family eats together. Very family oriented. Even the grandmother is there. I grew up with my grandmother living with us and it is very special. But there are small villages that are there and actually depicted in your post.
I really like that the composer of the video is killing himself to just tell us : "HEY WORLD !! LOOK ... WE HAVE BUILDINGS TOO. WE DRIVE CARS NOT CAMELS". I congratulate you for having urban areas. Now what ?!
Dr. Krab why shouldn’t he ??? Why shouldn’t vegans ? If your Muslim wouldn’t u say ur Muslim and don’t eat pork if invited to dinner or restaurant ????
You are like worm who puts his head in any land just talking for people to change and you don't know if these people can kill you canada is nothing to saudi arabia and if you dont know what happening now betwen saudi arabia and canada
Yes this is my country the great saudi arabia 🇸🇦😍 and I'm saudi from the capital city of saudi Riyadh 💚 I love my country so much and I'm proud and lucky to be saudi 🇸🇦 we love saudi arabia whatever you say saudi arabia has many enemies just look at the comments you will see the enemies they see anything positive about saudi arabia they get angry 😂😂 the great country SAUDI ARABIA 🇸🇦💚💚 allah bless My country 😭🇸🇦
Loora well keep ur wahabi Islam in Saudi u are exporting n funding terror groups . U do not realise how much u are hated even in other Muslim countries . Ur brand of Islam would make muhammad cry . I hope u run out of oil very soon and get invaded by Israel ...... With the help of other Muslim countries that is my wish
Thankyou , i wish you can come back and see how much we change after 5 years. We became more open, modern and more. After Riyadh summit i think All the world see us as well as we want 💚
Amani Al Ajlan it is alright looking at the leisure and the hotels and the high life but for millions that live in controlled and abject poverty with a horrific religious Islamic police force that watches over the millions with an iron fist , utter control .
I feel Saudi Arabia copied too much from the western or European when it comes to the Architecture I would have loved to see originality of their culture a little more
Sandra Pauyo Well we still have preserved traditional architecture throughout the old sections of all cities around Saudi Arabia. Sadly, the one who made this video chose not to showcase much of actual Saudi Architecture.
Y do u guys want a replica of the USA in the middle eastern countries... I am an Indian and i have lived a major part of my life as in my childhood and my teenage in saudi arabia.. There is nothin wrong there... Life is pretty comfortable and lavish with better than the best infrastructure provided by the government.. Women are not oppressed.. Have you seen any Saudi Woman protesting or even saying such a thing on Social Media.. never right... because they aremch more than happy ovr der... Saudi Arabia has not been in any personal war against any country in last like 100yrs or so now.. it maintains peace inthat region and even with the USA..People are happy there with the govt as it is a welfare state which provides all the basic necessities to its citizens such as shelter ,healthcare ,job security and most importantly not a single penny of any person is taxed.. There is no Taxation system and all the facilities can be availed for free... I am not a Saudi and my father has been an expatriate in saudi arabia for mor than 2 decades now and i feel much more comfortable and safe in saudi arabia than i do in my own country..# PEACE
من شان تعرفون ياعريبيا مهما تلمعتو قدامهم وتميلحتو ماراح يغير اي شي النظرة العنصرية الغربية الحقوده الارهابية تجاهكم .. الارهاب الحقيقي هو الغرب وناسة ..وما يسمى بالارهاب في عصرنا هذا هو في الحقيقة دفاع عن النفس ضد الارهاب الغربي الحقيقي.. (الارهاب كلمـة صدرها الغرب لشرق) ضلما و زوراء..لكن لن يستفيق الملمع الا عندما يفوت الاوان
Because the have honor and are valuable. And they don't shame themselves by showing the world their bodies. They are valuable and don't change men like clothes like Western women. How will I answer u if u don't see the shame and immorality in your own "civilization" ?
Im muslim from saudi arabia too and -girl- : $ im proud , u talk bad in comments and down like yours country teach you I will never answer like your way , I hpoe you continue thinking are we in the right way
+The Bros Please tell me how does it work? I know some one that lives over their with her husband and children and I also know some one that visited last year no complaints.
+yusuuf ibrahim Hey hey hey!!! I've made just a small joke based on my observations NO NEED to be offensive buddy. But on another hand - you just proved a big point... he he lol
Madan Mohan u are such a straight forward and honest person u kno foreighn media is all the time bussi in spreading rumours about muslims.thanks for tellng the truth
Its nice of the "guy" to make this informative video about Saudi " guys" + whoever dislikes Saudi can look back at the History of other nations and see how every country had an unpleasant thing about it, which is a must have for all "developing countries" Moral: Nothing lasts nor does your opinions.
Is this a propaganda video? You should make one about the lives of the abused slave/servants they lure from Africa and Asia for "domestic help." I didn't see too many women out there having fun. "Fun" is unislamic...unless you're a man. Also, I thought true muslims are supposed to be austere and live the way the prophet lived? Without air conditioning, smart phones, fast cars, toilet paper...
In Saudi Arabia all the men and women have no rights and there is a lot of poverty, ignorance and no freedom to view all community activists in prison .
is there any way for a non arab but a muslim man to marry a saudi women even if the man is rich? or is it only for arab (im talking about will i get there famliy's permission)
young jackson ya, depends to the woman, if she accepted, no one can stop you. If his family tried to stop you, she can file a case against them, the judge usually stands with her.
hatim makki total lie . The women in Saudi have no choice whom they marry if their father / brothers are not happy with the choice . No Saudi family will give their daughter to a non Saudi man . If u wan to marry an Arab woman forget the gulf states/ Saudi and try Lebanon , Syrian , North African they are much more open , polite , and their women are stunning !
It's a ridiculous cliché...I loved the parts where the woman drive a Lambo (lol) and the other part, a saudi man works...first of all, they are not capable to nail even a piece of wood...all the labor is done by a stranger workers that they took their passports. Of course we see ''saudi workers'' with cell phone, (a western technology), and read newspaper...without oil they would be nothing. Did you notice we don't see the weman face without burka...
That may have been a good thing not to see the Saudi woman with out the full burka- after all they're so beautiful that you might have lost control and Allah forbid- rape her.
wealth not every think. Saudi people were I think better people before know as they are getting advance they are getting in ethical. they simply acquired wealth but forgot ethics which Islam thought them. it's ever worst.
+fromatheiststoChrist women are less than camels and dunkies.... is unconcibable they can feel like that when Mahomed never ever said anything about women be treated like that. NEVER. He always said to remember their women are their mothers, sisters, and daughters and treated with respect, love and protection. WHERE these laws and BS camefrom -that follow today's- no one knows... but is barbaric like the ones they fallow these ancestral traditions ... SINCE THE MEN DON'T FOLOW THEM FOR THEMSELVES.
+Nabil Baloch except when they are brain wash from the time they are borne. I've seen -when I live in NorthAfrica- a man on top of the donkey while his wife was carring a huge heavy package over her back. Even the dog was better treated. It is part of your culture and tradition brain wash you to respect men who are not better than a beast. the crimes they comit are forgiven and forgotten while the girls/women are ponished for what they MEN do or behave. they should be a law to castre them whe they (men) do does things and there is no low to punish them. Yes, every one deserves live a life their own way when (there are laws) are justice, freedom and equality
Well i think you have some personal issues with arabs . i am not an arab but i love to spend time in saudi may be its a perception. They way you were raised and had culture effects your way of thinking
You can do the exact same activities in Qatar, Oman or Emirates and especially, you can visit, travel, work there as a woman on your own. Big difference...
No matter what you put in this video the world is gonna still call us terrorist and keep hating , I give up and I don't give a f**k about what the world thinks the most important thing for me that my life is good and I have no problems with it , don't care about the rest
Maybe you should just shut up ^^^ ..every country has a DEMOCRATIC system. Yes Everyone loves the culture and the nature. There is SO much to love about this country. You have probably never LIVED here. Or If you did , U were one of thise hypocrites who stayed here for years and complained all day but refused to leave. Whatever you case is , ur opinion is irrelvant. So shove it up your ass capishe ? And better yet , You're NOT a saudi so mind your own fucking business and stay FAR away from this country. Is that TOO hard if there is nothing to love about it ? Just stay away. Simple as that.
Omar Khattab and If you hate saudi arabia so bad , why the FUCK are you on a video about KSA fighting with someone who posted a comment in FAVOUR of ksa. Like is your own village not perfect enough that you feel the desperate need to waste your time like this. Like what are u even doing on here ? If u hate ksa sooo much why the heck did u click this video in the first place. Canr mind you own damn business ? Yeah garbage men dont have alot to do in life , but seriously , even they dont waste time like this ....
They live better than us, eh? I don't honestly think so. For starters, while Capitalist Britain may not be a worker's paradise, my employer doesn't yet have the right to confiscate my passport. We also don't have to live in fear of the Muttawas breaking down our doors and carting us off to the dungeons because we have a glass of wine.
There is no doubt that in Saudi Arabia you live a life of extravagance and luxury! Saudis get FREE health care and education up to the PHD level you can go to any collage of your choice such as (Harvard, MIT, Yale,.....) if you get accepted of course under the governments expense! You don't have to pay a dime! They also give you a monthly allowance to help you buy your necessities, you also don't have to pay tax like other countries and almost everything is dirt cheep you can feed a family with only 2 euros! And talking breakfast, lunch and dinner! You also get housekeepers and drivers. Now tell me again who has a better life style? Even expats love it here. They get to live in compounds that is exactly like living outside of Saudi Arabia (you said the "religion police" will come and make a huge fuss over wine) if you are not a Muslim you can do as you please, in compounds you don't have to wear the abaya or the head scarf women can drive you can go out in a bikini for all they care and you can also drink alcoholic beverages. So please don't mistake RELIGION with customs it's completely different. Thank you.
LoveMusic &Life Everything the government provides in Saudi Arabia is paid for through oil revenues. You don't have to pay tax because there's just no need to while there are trillions of dollars flooding in. Guess what happens when the oil runs out... "You also get housekeepers and drivers. Now tell me who has a better life style?" Firstly, do the housekeepers and drivers have housekeepers and drivers too, or do they just not count as human beings? Secondly, we all know how famous the Saudis are for treating their servants well...(sarcasm). If the Mutawas thought they could get away with it they'd burn those compounds to the ground. The only reason they're not allowed to is because the Saudi royal family need to appear at least a little bit civilised. I didn't mix religion with customs... Both are a massive problem for Saudi society and the world in general.
Yes I agree, we get our money from our oil. And yes one day it will run out, when is that? Maybe in 10, 40,..more years? By that time (thankfully for me) I'll already be graduated and starting a life for myself. As for the other Saudi people with all this wealth in our country most of us still live in the desert, so technically we will be going back to our old roots. Look at our old king, king Faisal (May he rest in peace) he threatened to stop sending oil to the US and they asked what would we do without their money the king simply replied "go back to our old roots" simple. But the question is what will you do without our oil? And from how frightened they were they had the king assassinated. Of course they are human beings I never implied they weren't, so please don't put words in my mouth. I'm talking about Saudis not people that come from poor countries searching for a job. And don't say we don't treat our help with kindness, I have had my housekeeper with me for years! She's like a sister to me, we have had her since I was 6 years old 11 years ago. She travels with us we buy her gifts she is literally like the sister I have never had. As for my driver as well we treat him with respect and kindness. I'm not saying all Saudis are this way, but people in general aren't all like that you are implying that Saudis don't treat people with respect, don't generalize because not ALL of them do. But on the other hand there are people all around the world that don't treat people with respect. There is racism and cruel, mean, cold hearted people around the world, don't just point the finger at the "Saudis". I know what sarcasm is by the way. I'm Saudi not retarded... And you know this from personal experience I assume? Have you ever been to Saudi Arabia? How do you judge a country if you have never been to it. For your information they are very respectful. Me as a Saudi I choose not to wear the head scarf they simply approach me and ask me to put on my head scarf I say "inshallah" which means "if gods willing" and they walk away. You make it seem like they come and smack you with a whip and harass you tell you put it on or do what they want. Times are changing and so are people. You have no idea how much Saudi Arabia is changing take it from a girl that's living in Saudi How is it a problem? I don't find it a problem at all. But I live here. If you take a polar bear and put it in a desert it's not going to adapt it's like putting a camel in the North Pole. What I mean is you can't take a person and put them in an environment and surroundings they are not used to and expect it to adapt.
LoveMusic &Life Oh I see... So it's a case of "pull up the ladder, Jack. I'm alright" then is it? Well I put it to you that if the Saudi regime ever did cut off oil supplies to the west then the western media would suddenly have a lot to say about the human rights record in Saudi Arabia... It wouldn't take much to convince people that the royal family had to go. That's how this whole mafia style client state business works, remember? Your king gives the mafia what they want or they'll come and burn down his house. Well I hope Saudi Arabia is changing, though no real change is possible in a society like that. I'm sorry to offend, but it just isn't. It's a problem because both religion and tradition are meant to preserve a crooked and unfair system. It's the same in every country.
i'm from Saudi Arabia, I am a Muslim that God is above you and see you and hear what you're saying You have your religion and I have mine Allah Akbar Allah Akbar
+جنان الحربش I'm sorry, didn't mean to insult any body, but I just can't understand how you Saudi women are sooo ok with all the discrimination against you. You can't drive, you can't sing, you are considered half a man in law (even a male fetus), you have to have hijab, you can't have relationship with opposite sex while most of Saudi guys do and many more ... and the sad thing is that not only you don't try to change it, but you keep saying that you are happy with that! PLEASE, DON'T! for women's sake
+حليم نور But they cannot buy their freedom with it, can they? and nothing is more enjoyable than driving your car at night, under rain .... :) fight for your freedom, don't say these stupid lame excuses !!!!
+Saba Elahi stop jealousy please ! i imagine that you do not have neither real freedom (not the western freedom) nor their 10000000000 in the bank !! lol
+Sonrisa Do you? omg you are brainwashed and stupid. I know how it is in Saudi Arabia, I had many Saudi classmates and they told me how it is there, my father also traveled there. There is a very little minority of rich people and all others are very poor, living a miserable life ... Stop this hypocrisy and do something about this situation instead of trying convince others that you're good!
Oh my god 😂😂 then what's the place that I go to every evening to work out? It's not a gym? Dude they lied to me 😮 lol 😂 you are so dumb I'm a Saudi girl you can't tell me how we live 😂
Gud one abin...they even killed the sri lankan maid reezana nafeek without givin her fair trial...its a hell for a women. A girl cannot accompany her male frnd....thy evn have separate que for men n women in McDonald's...sadnesa
Some live awonderful life but despite its wealth there is extreme poverty even amongst its own peoples. Women need a husband cousin or son to escort them if they go out, even to the shops. In the few jobs they are permitted to do they need a guardian's permission.
Turky Alqader I wouldn't last 5 minutes there, money or no. I'm sure that the super wealthy live by a different set of rules - even so, no thank you ;)
Saudi Arabia has to be the safest for women, and also the unfairest at the same time. Our religion teaches us to not go around opening our legs to men like American women do, and we have such a low rate of abortion and children with no rightful fathers. We sure do have a lot of problems, yes. But Saudi Arabia is still a developing country, and perhaps isn't open minded to homosexuals and women driving but it does hold a dear spot in my heart and always will. God blessed us with the oil to have us wealthy, and never of those Least Developed Countries, we will one day see our country rise upon countries and be a More Developed Country, we just have to be patient and educated, and please simply ignore pathetic and attention-seeking comments from some random guy/girl that calls themselves an American, when if actually DNA tested, you'd see they're also Scottish, Mexican, Irish, Cuban... etc. They call themselves rightful Americans when in reality they got more countries in their blood than they have fingers on both hands and yet they're racist, it's ironically pathetic.
You would rather tell us about Saudi wedding, love and relationship in Saudi Arabia. treating people by it's nationality or "clan" is quite racist and tribal for my opinion, so don't compare USA and KSA, please.
Mikhail Dranichnikov I will compare whatever culture I want with whatever other cutlure I please if I happen to know both from experience and my own life, so don't tell me what NOT to do because you're not a guardian over me-- Just a username on some searching website.
Minbae Kim I just find it funny that you compare tribal country with the west country. You said that blood of Americans are mixed. As a Saudi you might find it weird but in West society we used to marry by love, not by tribe. So DNA test tells nothing wrong. You call them racist. Fine! Then tell me please how do you call black people there? write it in arabic and we will translate it together. Speaking about racism, do you know that there are 70.000 stateless people who were born in KSA and they don't have passports or documents. Do you know why they are stateless? google it! It's a fact that Saudi Arabia has worst human right records in the world. You can write whatever you want, after all you are right I am just a username.
I agree with you, and I grew up among the scholar and I was students of Islamic teaching but their life is nothing but a double standards and nothing to do with humanity.
+Deema Alem If you are a Saudi girl ,you should realize that all the women need freedom and democracy ,most of the women dont like Hijab in middle of hot summer , I am from Iran and we are in the same situation but Iranians are little bit different because we have more freedom but its not enough yet ,
I'm not Saudi but I live in saudi and I absolutely love it!! in fact the only place I feel empowered as a woman is when I'm in saudi. Thus I would suggest you keep your negative comments to your self not all women are interested to hear your rants.
wow all this hate on saudi... before anyone starts talking shit, please ask yourself this question: are the things i hate about saudi true things that i have seen with my own eyes? or was it something that i heard someone say to someone else... I'm sad that in the year 2014 people can still be manipulated by "facts" taken out of context and turned into something completely different. We -as humans- should be getting more enlightened and educated. We should differentiate between facts and claims. We should be critical and skeptical... not brainwashed...
I live in Saudi Arabia. I am a non - Muslim. but I love Saudi Arabia no matter what. Their culture and Traditions are great. Mashallah. But some ppl come to Saudi Arabia as a disgrace.
Saudi Arabia, a nice place to live. this is my opinion!!! from Philippines
You look like a driver worked in ksa , amirite ?
Mmaa Mais he is working ?? Like every human on earth so what's so shameful about it ?
Fatin KM This is not the right way to talk with people who are open minded and know the truth. Many people who aren't Muslims, when you put them on the wound, they heal it.
Khalid Alghamdi and what did I say ????
Don't tell me how to talk when hardly understand what I said in the first place
He or she just asked a question, not everything is solved with hostility
There were a big challenge for Saudis. They changed the desert to industrial cities, farms and high ways. They built over 45 sea water desalination stations. So, they have their own rivers. During 50 years they achieved silently the greater projects in the world. Changing coumunity, and changing desert environment to a real developed state. Cities are specifically designated for the education system and health care. It's true that they are different but, they absolutely succeeded.

I'm just back today from Jeddah. Booming economy. Very well educated people speaking fluently English. Freedom and peace everywhere. Officers and police very friendly and treat us very well at customs and very helpful. I agree with this movie which shows the reality of KSA.
All the gloss, shimmer, cars, tall buildings, money,malls, etc, etc appears like Paradise on earth ....till oil lasts...
I think that is the real Saudi Arabia- if you're a rich person.
Hey you want to film for you or what to believe is our country is modern
@Reinhart Ottow sir ur here in the comments section??? For 6 years?! Find a job!!!
2 city of Saudi in my heart, "Mecca" & "Madina"
ONCE THE OIL RUNS OUT...
Will the "Real Saudi Arabia" return to "What I Think Is Saudi Arabia"?
It probably won't run out in our lifetimes.
Saudi Arabia does exist even before oil discovery ...r u fool :))
No, since they do earn a lot of money from umrah and hajj every year. And then they can also start taxation, and more businesses. They got it covered.
Madrigucian wrong...Saudi Arabia does exist even before capturing makkah & madinah ...
read before speak :)
Not just Saudi Arabia will return, the whole world will look like that unless we find an alternative fuel
So according to the video, Saudi guys like to drive, chill with their friends, wear 'western' clothes in public, jet ski, go parasailing, and bungee jump, while Saudi women like to...walk and chat. Literally most of the video during that part were just women walking around or sitting.
Lol
fucking.great.life.for.them,huh,ppfffttt
***** You're brainwashed
And I quote: ''oh no america is a very repressed country against women!! no women on the rodeo its all men!!!'' I left out the rest it got pretty boring
If that's true then I apologize, the way it was written led me to believe that your statement was your own. peace!
Any nation that relies on oil and oil-related industries for 80% of its income is doomed to failure. The Kingdom will be lucky if it's as rich as Yemen once the oil is gone.

Exactly poor and incomplete video
I am in an Indian lived a long years in saudi arabia.. after travelling almost every corner of the world.. I feel more peace and comfort life in saudi arabia. i do agree the night life is dead which encourages for bad things. but in return night life in saudi arabia is good if one stay with family and good friends..
ma sha ALLAH. WONDERFUL COUNTRY )))
To be real, until I started watching these documentaries, I really believed most Saudi women, specifically, were unhappy, oppressed, etc. But it seems most are happy, normal working wives,mothers etc. The education rate is astounding, many hold various degrees in science, medicine, etc. They do these things despite what the world thinks, and to me, that makes them some of the strongest women in the world. The western mainstream media is a joke. If you want to know Islam, ask a Muslim. If you want to know Saudi, ask a Saudi, Pakistan ask a Pakistani. At least research these things your self, and drawn your own opinion before deciding anything negative. Much love from USA ❤️
Thank you :))
+RvngeOG oh you are very welcome! My fiancé (who's Pakistani), his 3 brothers and their wives all love on Saudi and they seek quite happy there! (Kind of worried because of Yemen,etc) BUT I just hate how they will show a Saudi woman (who was treated horribly,etc by husband, father,etc) then they'll interview said woman in western media, and of course she's going to say she was oppressed/forced/etc because for HER, Saudi Culture, the birqa,etc,Islam were ALL BAD EXPERIENCES--However that doesn't represent ALL Saudi women which is a HUGE misconception here in USA. I've been studying the Quran,etc and I now know the burka is the woman's choice (in most cases), is Saudi culture (more than it is Islamic), and I have the up,oat respect for any Muslim women but especially Saudis because these educated, awesome, God loving women CHOOSE to cover themselves out of RESPECT AND LOVE FOR ALLAH (GOD) AND because as per Islam, a wife is her husbands QUEEN, she is only meant for HIM to see her body-
+RvngeOG (sorry ran out of room) (and others can see her like father, brother,etc) but seriously, that is awesome to have that much respect for God, AND for not just their husbands, but other woman's husbands,brothers,etc. I commend you all !!!
Thank you. I am not from KSA.
well Sheikh Zaid Grand Mosque is one of the best in the world. watch the documentary.
one of the top most in charge of the construction is a women who is an engineer and who wears hijab.
those people just talk out of hatred for islam, not facts
+Elizabeth Lancaster Lady
Give me a break, if you knew islam,,,,,,,,you wouldn't be smiling like this and talking like this. The devil has looks that kill. Don't get taken away.
I like the choice of colours of burghas for the women---you can have black or you can have black.
hahaha.thanks for that.so true
fiphykhatx In Britain fashion designers are trying to get the Muslim women to wear designer colourful clothes burqhas and hajebs --which, really, I'm sure the women would like to wear
+David Hynes and still they are stuck with the black habayas.I don't get the logic behind a long huge black cloak all year round,all my life.surely they must have some sense to know colourful well cut clothes would look better????
fiphykhatx They daren't do anything to offend fellow Muslims. They must stay within the guidelines and parameters set by this totalitarian regime.Even medical people wear them and they must be aware of the health problems of not letting enough sunlight onto their hair and bodies, and which will cause health problems in their future, and yet they are too 'frightened' not to wear it. This is a modern phenomena. Lots of Muslim women in the 1980's didn't wear these overall coverings.
+David Hynes hahahahaha
I just finished watching a documentary about domestic slavery in Saudi Arabia and for the women, this was also the real Saudi Arabia.
There have been many recent law changes to help stop that.
Abdulaziz Qutub Which will unfortunately take a long time to find its way to all areas of the country! KSA is slow to change, surely you must know that!
I'm women from Saudi Arabia and I love it, it's beautiful
Pleas don't say somethings bad about it💚
Beautiful concept of culture. Love the pictures. Was in Saudi Arabia for 10 years. It has its good side an bad side like any other country. People were super friendly but the men need to learn constraint for women better. No woman likes men throwing papers at her with their numbers unless she's a tramp. But love the footage.
Love my country 💚🇸🇦

Are you even read the Quran!! It says that allowed 😄 do you think that you know more than Allah!!
(27) (22:27) and make a proclamation to the people to come to you for Hajj from far and near, on foot and on lean *46 camels *47
(28) (22:28) so that they may witness the benefits that have been made available here for them: *48 and during the known appointed days, they should mention the name of Allah over the cattle He has provided them : *49 then they may eat their flesh and also give of it to the indigent and needy.
And about what you said about our women 😃 will excuse me, but I’m a Saudi woman, and I wear my hijab willingly (any Muslim woman doesn’t wear it for another reason tell her to remove it coz there’s no rewards for it anyway) and I can go anywhere Mr.drama Queen, as long as it’s not a travel that takes more than 3 days, and I can drive my own car, but be known that I respect my parents so much so if they tell me to not do anything I’ll not do it, 😊 I can but I’ll not if that makes them happy and rest, same things for my brothers, because God tells me to do so, not the government or anything else, I know that something can’t be reasonable in some countries but it’s very much here, for both males and females, kids and adults, specially in Muslims countries, not the government or any others opinions of any creature can change it😒, I only care about my God and my parents first, then myself, my family, my people, my nation, my country, and my society, you really don’t know anything about our society or how its people think, and there is no power on this earth can make me believe that you’re care about us like our fathers and brothers do.. and I don’t know why are you talking about them as if they are our enemies, they are our families!! 😄♥️ they are my father, my brothers, my uncles, and they are will be my sons and my love, 😍 say what! Men and women are equal! ☺️ sorry not till the man can be pregnant, otherwise they should work for us and pay for everything, as fathers and brothers or as husbands, 😚😚😚 so keep calm and don’t put your nose where it’s not belong ..specially when no one ask for it 😊

For myself English is not my first language it is only my 3rd language,… yet it is 100 times better than yours, if my English was not good enough to write even a normal sentence so people can understand what I am saying I would not even bother....your English is so bad that it is very difficult to understand anything you say... So the best choice for you is to stick to only videos with your Urdu language and only answer to Urdu comments, or you are jut wasting everybody’s time….

I can in believe how nasty and rude people are being on this page. I have had 2 experiences with Saudi men. The first one I was around the age of 18 and he was a Saudi Prince whom I wish I could find him today so I can apologize for not continue seeing this man. He was so nice and very giving,and ordered a glass of milk in the bar, but like myself I think he had misconceptions about Americans. He was very generous to me, but it scared me because I thought that all Saudi men thought that all American women have sexual relations with anyone especially because I live in Las Vegas and that is so far from the truth! I met a man about 15 year's later and I didn't know his nationality but I did go on a date with him. Long story short I have a 12 yr old son with him and he is one of the most loving men I have ever met. His family(and himself) are from Jeddah, Saudi Arabia and they are so beautiful and loving towards my son and I. They are now and will always be my family. If my father was not getting older and in need of my care I would love for us to move to Jeddah. I would love to have a driver, spend time at the malls, travel abroad and spend quality time with family. They visit us regularly and for the terrorists people say they ALL are they must hide it well, Lol! There are terrorists everywhere! Does Timothy McVeigh ring a bell with any Americans?On 9-11 my 6 yr old step daughter was asked if she would warn them if she was going to bomb somewhere. It's very sad that we can't find the good in people and instead talk about each other like we're a bad country, race , or religion. I hope my son grows up to be a very proud Saudi American. I want him to be educated about both countries and I pray to God that he never speaks the hatred I have read on here.
Marie Hemsley You must have very low self-esteem
+Marie Hemsley You're words are beautiful and kind. I think that these are hurt people. They want to vent about the 2001 911 horrific terror event not to forget about the other so called terrorist groups that out there. The single terrorist people out there. I don't know if they have lost a single love one in any terrorist matter. If so to all that are spitting virus hate speech it's understood. To those who are saying Islam is a virus they are the true virus. Your right there are terrorist every and in all groups of people.
+Marie Hemsley I really like what you said, I hope things work out with you.
ladyofperpetualmotion My self-esteem is just fine. Obviously you are an uneducated person. There are good and bad in ALL nationalities. Let me refresh your memory....Do you recall Timothy McVey, the KKK, white supremacist's, Jeffrey Dahmer? I'm sure if you have a brain that you do. I could go on an on, but I hope you got my point! Who exactly are you to judge other people? Open your eye's child.
Yasmin Edmonson Thank you for being one of the two people who agree with me. I just saw your reply and wanted you to know that it did not go unnoticed. Islam is certainly not a virus. People should be able to believe as they so choose as long as hatred and spitting cruel word's at others. I pray that someday we all come to except each other regardless of race or religion. That would be a beautiful day!
God Bless SAUDI ARABIA!
اللة يحفظ السعودية من كل شر !
Look at all this hate in the comments. As an American, sometimes I'm ashamed at how much my country talks down about the middle East. It's really not that bad. Who are we to say what works well for them and what doesn't? Do you want the whole world to be just like you, your culture, your values etc? Sounds like a boring world.
" Look at all this hate in the comments. As an American, sometimes I'm ashamed at how much my country talks down about the middle East"
All comments by Americans? You are thinking too high about America. Your comment is actually about yourself.
For your info, most comments on RUclips are by non Americans.
We non Americans know better than you what real Saudi is like. It's simply a society created by the greatest enemy of humanity - Muhammed the thug.
The old Saudi images are very romantic, they remind me of the Wild West in the USA. The new images, while impressive, are dull. It would be like visiting another LA. How boring is that?
The women are not allowed to drive there, correct?
Yes, we didn't drive here
come to the DC.riyadh, jeddah, damam, or any city you want i'm sure they will enamour you. we all receive you here, have a good time if you decided to come xo
I really hope I'll get to go some day. It's always been my dream..
Inshallah some day, where are you from?

I'm from the US.
They do have a woman race car driver and a female pilot, although she must be driven to the airport. She flies the very large royal 747. They have many women professionals, doctors, lawyers, accountants, running major banks. I think Saudi men in these major cities even prefer their wife be a College Grad and business professional. Then you have dual income. They have families to raise too. One thing I do love is that the families all live close together. Each with their own home but sometimes sisters, sisters-in-law live right across the street, or some have not only a private kitchen but a main kitchen so the whole family eats together. Very family oriented. Even the grandmother is there. I grew up with my grandmother living with us and it is very special. But there are small villages that are there and actually depicted in your post.
Good or bad, this is a video from a GOVT sponsored documentary.
I really like that the composer of the video is killing himself to just tell us : "HEY WORLD !! LOOK ... WE HAVE BUILDINGS TOO. WE DRIVE CARS NOT CAMELS".
I congratulate you for having urban areas.
Now what ?!

Amani Al Ajlan it is alright looking at the leisure and the hotels and the high life but for millions that live in controlled and abject poverty with a horrific religious Islamic police force that watches over the millions with an iron fist , utter control .
I was in Saudi Arabia last year on business and I was kind of shocked to see how shocked very American that country really is.
What do u mean
I feel Saudi Arabia copied too much from the western or European when it comes to the Architecture I would have loved to see originality of their culture a little more
Sandra Pauyo Well we still have preserved traditional architecture throughout the old sections of all cities around Saudi Arabia. Sadly, the one who made this video chose not to showcase much of actual Saudi Architecture.
Y do u guys want a replica of the USA in the middle eastern countries... I am an Indian and i have lived a major part of my life as in my childhood and my teenage in saudi arabia.. There is nothin wrong there... Life is pretty comfortable and lavish with better than the best infrastructure provided by the government.. Women are not oppressed.. Have you seen any Saudi Woman protesting or even saying such a thing on Social Media.. never right... because they aremch more than happy ovr der... Saudi Arabia has not been in any personal war against any country in last like 100yrs or so now.. it maintains peace inthat region and even with the USA..People are happy there with the govt as it is a welfare state which provides all the basic necessities to its citizens such as shelter ,healthcare ,job security and most importantly not a single penny of any person is taxed.. There is no Taxation system and all the facilities can be availed for free... I am not a Saudi and my father has been an expatriate in saudi arabia for mor than 2 decades now and i feel much more comfortable and safe in saudi arabia than i do in my own country..# PEACE

Its nice of the "guy" to make this informative video about Saudi " guys" + whoever dislikes Saudi can look back at the History of other nations and see how every country had an unpleasant thing about it, which is a must have for all "developing countries" Moral: Nothing lasts nor does your opinions.
Is this a propaganda video? You should make one about the lives of the abused slave/servants they lure from Africa and Asia for "domestic help." I didn't see too many women out there having fun. "Fun" is unislamic...unless you're a man. Also, I thought true muslims are supposed to be austere and live the way the prophet lived? Without air conditioning, smart phones, fast cars, toilet paper...
Michelle Gordon You are absolutely right!
You are absolutely wrong..
In Saudi Arabia all the men and women have no rights and there is a lot of poverty, ignorance and no freedom to view all community activists in prison .
No at all I was there poverty are from Yemen or immigrants
yes, you live a great life if you have money.

is there any way for a non arab but a muslim man to marry a saudi women even if the man is rich? or is it only for arab (im talking about will i get there famliy's permission)
It depends on the girl and her family
young jackson very unlikely
hahah you wanna get married from saudi dude you foxy lol
young jackson ya, depends to the woman, if she accepted, no one can stop you. If his family tried to stop you, she can file a case against them, the judge usually stands with her.
hatim makki total lie . The women in Saudi have no choice whom they marry if their father / brothers are not happy with the choice . No Saudi family will give their daughter to a non Saudi man . If u wan to marry an Arab woman forget the gulf states/ Saudi and try Lebanon , Syrian , North African they are much more open , polite , and their women are stunning !

It's a ridiculous cliché...I loved the parts where the woman drive a Lambo (lol) and the other part, a saudi man works...first of all, they are not capable to nail even a piece of wood...all the labor is done by a stranger workers that they took their passports. Of course we see ''saudi workers'' with cell phone, (a western technology), and read newspaper...without oil they would be nothing. Did you notice we don't see the weman face without burka...
That may have been a good thing not to see the Saudi woman with out the full burka- after all they're so beautiful that you might have lost control and Allah forbid- rape her.
Upon arrival ,they are looking for prostitutes in Morocco .
I have seen incredible behavior .
They are a bunch of horny men, same in India thay marry and divorce after sex. Shame to them and their behavior.
thanks! ,but I'm Saudi and I don't give a shit let them think what they want the important for us that the oil is fine lol.
Regardless of "what" we all are, this is an eye opener for me as a manipulated white american woman - I NEEDED THIS!! Peace...Shalom...السلام
may alsaawy PEACE begins with me.....Connection ADDS power to making our world a Safer place to Live and do business...Thanks for the Reply...
wealth not every think. Saudi people were I think better people before know as they are getting advance they are getting in ethical. they simply acquired wealth but forgot ethics which Islam thought them. it's ever worst.
whats the point? of this clip
Women are always as a second class citizen in the Islamic countries. So.....please don't sugarcoat your video.
+fromatheiststoChrist women are less than camels and dunkies.... is unconcibable they can feel like that when Mahomed never ever said anything about women be treated like that. NEVER. He always said to remember their women are their mothers, sisters, and daughters and treated with respect, love and protection. WHERE these laws and BS camefrom -that follow today's- no one knows... but is barbaric like the ones they fallow these ancestral traditions ... SINCE THE MEN DON'T FOLOW THEM FOR THEMSELVES.
+Celia Younger i think that before you say that you must respect culture of every country . everyone likes to live hisher own way.

+Nabil Baloch except when they are brain wash from the time they are borne. I've seen -when I live in NorthAfrica- a man on top of the donkey while his wife was carring a huge heavy package over her back. Even the dog was better treated. It is part of your culture and tradition brain wash you to respect men who are not better than a beast. the crimes they comit are forgiven and forgotten while the girls/women are ponished for what they MEN do or behave. they should be a law to castre them whe they (men) do does things and there is no low to punish them. Yes, every one deserves live a life their own way when (there are laws) are justice, freedom and equality
I been to saudi and i loved it so nobody is sugar coating anything
Well i think you have some personal issues with arabs . i am not an arab but i love to spend time in saudi may be its a perception. They way you were raised and had culture effects your way of thinking
You can do the exact same activities in Qatar, Oman or Emirates and especially, you can visit, travel, work there as a woman on your own. Big difference...
I used to live in SAUDIA it is full of PEACE with Islam and fully MODERN and beautiful💕 All VALUES ,WOMEN and MEN have full FREEDOM💖💙
No matter what you put in this video the world is gonna still call us terrorist and keep hating , I give up and I don't give a f**k about what the world thinks the most important thing for me that my life is good and I have no problems with it , don't care about the rest
I'm with you
I love Saudi Arabia...
+Raviq Irvansyah Gatam
and brother, Saudi Arabia and its people love you.
Salaam to you.
Why? May I ask? You love the wahhabi religion? You love its democratic system? You love its "culture"? You love its nature? What exactly do you love?
Maybe you should just shut up ^^^ ..every country has a DEMOCRATIC system. Yes Everyone loves the culture and the nature. There is SO much to love about this country. You have probably never LIVED here. Or If you did , U were one of thise hypocrites who stayed here for years and complained all day but refused to leave. Whatever you case is , ur opinion is irrelvant. So shove it up your ass capishe ? And better yet , You're NOT a saudi so mind your own fucking business and stay FAR away from this country. Is that TOO hard if there is nothing to love about it ? Just stay away. Simple as that.
Omar Khattab ^^^
Omar Khattab and If you hate saudi arabia so bad , why the FUCK are you on a video about KSA fighting with someone who posted a comment in FAVOUR of ksa. Like is your own village not perfect enough that you feel the desperate need to waste your time like this. Like what are u even doing on here ? If u hate ksa sooo much why the heck did u click this video in the first place. Canr mind you own damn business ? Yeah garbage men dont have alot to do in life , but seriously , even they dont waste time like this ....
They live better than us, eh? I don't honestly think so.
For starters, while Capitalist Britain may not be a worker's paradise, my employer doesn't yet have the right to confiscate my passport.
We also don't have to live in fear of the Muttawas breaking down our doors and carting us off to the dungeons because we have a glass of wine.
There is no doubt that in Saudi Arabia you live a life of extravagance and luxury! Saudis get FREE health care and education up to the PHD level you can go to any collage of your choice such as (Harvard, MIT, Yale,.....) if you get accepted of course under the governments expense! You don't have to pay a dime! They also give you a monthly allowance to help you buy your necessities, you also don't have to pay tax like other countries and almost everything is dirt cheep you can feed a family with only 2 euros! And talking breakfast, lunch and dinner! You also get housekeepers and drivers. Now tell me again who has a better life style? Even expats love it here. They get to live in compounds that is exactly like living outside of Saudi Arabia (you said the "religion police" will come and make a huge fuss over wine) if you are not a Muslim you can do as you please, in compounds you don't have to wear the abaya or the head scarf women can drive you can go out in a bikini for all they care and you can also drink alcoholic beverages. So please don't mistake RELIGION with customs it's completely different. Thank you.
LoveMusic &Life Everything the government provides in Saudi Arabia is paid for through oil revenues. You don't have to pay tax because there's just no need to while there are trillions of dollars flooding in.
Guess what happens when the oil runs out...
"You also get housekeepers and drivers. Now tell me who has a better life style?"
Firstly, do the housekeepers and drivers have housekeepers and drivers too, or do they just not count as human beings?
Secondly, we all know how famous the Saudis are for treating their servants well...(sarcasm).
If the Mutawas thought they could get away with it they'd burn those compounds to the ground. The only reason they're not allowed to is because the Saudi royal family need to appear at least a little bit civilised.
I didn't mix religion with customs... Both are a massive problem for Saudi society and the world in general.
Yes I agree, we get our money from our oil. And yes one day it will run out, when is that? Maybe in 10, 40,..more years? By that time (thankfully for me) I'll already be graduated and starting a life for myself. As for the other Saudi people with all this wealth in our country most of us still live in the desert, so technically we will be going back to our old roots. Look at our old king, king Faisal (May he rest in peace) he threatened to stop sending oil to the US and they asked what would we do without their money the king simply replied "go back to our old roots" simple. But the question is what will you do without our oil? And from how frightened they were they had the king assassinated.
Of course they are human beings I never implied they weren't, so please don't put words in my mouth. I'm talking about Saudis not people that come from poor countries searching for a job. And don't say we don't treat our help with kindness, I have had my housekeeper with me for years! She's like a sister to me, we have had her since I was 6 years old 11 years ago. She travels with us we buy her gifts she is literally like the sister I have never had. As for my driver as well we treat him with respect and kindness. I'm not saying all Saudis are this way, but people in general aren't all like that you are implying that Saudis don't treat people with respect, don't generalize because not ALL of them do. But on the other hand there are people all around the world that don't treat people with respect. There is racism and cruel, mean, cold hearted people around the world, don't just point the finger at the "Saudis". I know what sarcasm is by the way. I'm Saudi not retarded...
And you know this from personal experience I assume? Have you ever been to Saudi Arabia? How do you judge a country if you have never been to it. For your information they are very respectful. Me as a Saudi I choose not to wear the head scarf they simply approach me and ask me to put on my head scarf I say "inshallah" which means "if gods willing" and they walk away. You make it seem like they come and smack you with a whip and harass you tell you put it on or do what they want. Times are changing and so are people. You have no idea how much Saudi Arabia is changing take it from a girl that's living in Saudi
How is it a problem? I don't find it a problem at all. But I live here. If you take a polar bear and put it in a desert it's not going to adapt it's like putting a camel in the North Pole. What I mean is you can't take a person and put them in an environment and surroundings they are not used to and expect it to adapt.
LoveMusic &Life Oh I see... So it's a case of "pull up the ladder, Jack. I'm alright" then is it?
Well I put it to you that if the Saudi regime ever did cut off oil supplies to the west then the western media would suddenly have a lot to say about the human rights record in Saudi Arabia... It wouldn't take much to convince people that the royal family had to go. That's how this whole mafia style client state business works, remember? Your king gives the mafia what they want or they'll come and burn down his house.
Well I hope Saudi Arabia is changing, though no real change is possible in a society like that. I'm sorry to offend, but it just isn't.
It's a problem because both religion and tradition are meant to preserve a crooked and unfair system. It's the same in every country.
*****
Thank you for all the info most people don't know or ignore. Very good comment.
i'm from Saudi Arabia, I am a Muslim that God is above you and see you and hear what you're saying You have your religion and I have mine Allah Akbar Allah Akbar
you should also show the life of Saudi women, which apparently is not that nice
A lovely propaganda film. Oh it is Paradise for women (sic!)
Life of women was just like I was thinking, miserable. Unless they could drink orange juice and watch horses run. :|
+جنان الحربش I'm sorry, didn't mean to insult any body, but I just can't understand how you Saudi women are sooo ok with all the discrimination against you. You can't drive, you can't sing, you are considered half a man in law (even a male fetus), you have to have hijab, you can't have relationship with opposite sex while most of Saudi guys do and many more ... and the sad thing is that not only you don't try to change it, but you keep saying that you are happy with that! PLEASE, DON'T! for women's sake
All Saudi women have one driver and In the bank 10000000000
+حليم نور But they cannot buy their freedom with it, can they? and nothing is more enjoyable than driving your car at night, under rain .... :) fight for your freedom, don't say these stupid lame excuses !!!!
+Saba Elahi stop jealousy please ! i imagine that you do not have neither real freedom (not the western freedom) nor their 10000000000 in the bank !! lol
+Sonrisa Do you? omg you are brainwashed and stupid. I know how it is in Saudi Arabia, I had many Saudi classmates and they told me how it is there, my father also traveled there. There is a very little minority of rich people and all others are very poor, living a miserable life ... Stop this hypocrisy and do something about this situation instead of trying convince others that you're good!
Don't get caught drinking!! Prison.
I want good freindship of you 00923055112262whatsapp
We are muslims so go fuck your self and your christianity
And we support that
We are all the Real Muslimin love Saudi Arabia.....And we hope someday Saudi will become a Superpower Nation too
This video should be named "RICH SIDE OF SAUDI ARABIA"
This vídeo is like the one URSS showed to the world to hide the reality of his people.
Spending hours editing n trying to make a perfect video..wont hide d truth abt how women ate treated is saudi arabia
Did any Saudi woman complained to you about how we live? There's no ugly truth get over it.
I have lot of friends working in saudi n heqrd d trutj frm.them...n also learned from.ppl who arr saudi nationals
Oh my god 😂😂 then what's the place that I go to every evening to work out? It's not a gym? Dude they lied to me 😮 lol 😂 you are so dumb I'm a Saudi girl you can't tell me how we live 😂
We have thousands of gyms only for female curves is known worldwide is one of them, Google it you fool 😂
Gud one abin...they even killed the sri lankan maid reezana nafeek without givin her fair trial...its a hell for a women. A girl cannot accompany her male frnd....thy evn have separate que for men n women in McDonald's...sadnesa
الحمد لله
Linda ralph, this is great camera work.
Some live awonderful life but despite its wealth there is extreme poverty even amongst its own peoples. Women need a husband cousin or son to escort them if they go out, even to the shops. In the few jobs they are permitted to do they need a guardian's permission.
It looks wonderful....if you're wealthy....and a man.
In Islam if you get alot alot of mony , you have to give the poor .
Rghad sam
Well yeah, but that doesn't mean you become poor in the process ;)
Turky Alqader
I wouldn't last 5 minutes there, money or no. I'm sure that the super wealthy live by a different set of rules - even so, no thank you ;)
this is the real Saudi Arabia, if you are Rich...
And if you're a Sunni Muslim that's connected to the royal family.
Im not rich and I have a best life in the world! 👑 Queen
Saudi Arabia has to be the safest for women, and also the unfairest at the same time. Our religion teaches us to not go around opening our legs to men like American women do, and we have such a low rate of abortion and children with no rightful fathers. We sure do have a lot of problems, yes. But Saudi Arabia is still a developing country, and perhaps isn't open minded to homosexuals and women driving but it does hold a dear spot in my heart and always will. God blessed us with the oil to have us wealthy, and never of those Least Developed Countries, we will one day see our country rise upon countries and be a More Developed Country, we just have to be patient and educated, and please simply ignore pathetic and attention-seeking comments from some random guy/girl that calls themselves an American, when if actually DNA tested, you'd see they're also Scottish, Mexican, Irish, Cuban... etc. They call themselves rightful Americans when in reality they got more countries in their blood than they have fingers on both hands and yet they're racist, it's ironically pathetic.
true
Haha, at least we have freedom and don't get lashed for being a catch
You would rather tell us about Saudi wedding, love and relationship in Saudi Arabia.
treating people by it's nationality or "clan" is quite racist and tribal for my opinion, so don't compare USA and KSA, please.
Mikhail Dranichnikov I will compare whatever culture I want with whatever other cutlure I please if I happen to know both from experience and my own life, so don't tell me what NOT to do because you're not a guardian over me-- Just a username on some searching website.
Minbae Kim I just find it funny that you compare tribal country with the west country. You said that blood of Americans are mixed. As a Saudi you might find it weird but in West society we used to marry by love, not by tribe. So DNA test tells nothing wrong. You call them racist. Fine! Then tell me please how do you call black people there? write it in arabic and we will translate it together. Speaking about racism, do you know that there are 70.000 stateless people who were born in KSA and they don't have passports or documents. Do you know why they are stateless? google it! It's a fact that Saudi Arabia has worst human right records in the world.
You can write whatever you want, after all you are right I am just a username.
Wow is this how Saudi Arabia beautiful!!💖💖🇸🇦
I agree with you, and I grew up among the scholar and I was students of Islamic teaching but their life is nothing but a double standards and nothing to do with humanity.
i💚ksa
and the oppressive state of women continues
I'm Saudi , and I'm more than happy :) so don't judge till you see for yourself
.
+Deema Alem If you are a Saudi girl ,you should realize that all the women need freedom and democracy ,most of the women dont like Hijab in middle of hot summer , I am from Iran and we are in the same situation but Iranians are little bit different because we have more freedom but its not enough yet ,
don't eat feminism lite. problem solved. feminism destroy everything. look at the west. family system are destroyed in western country.
Lol this is a funny video, because it equates standard of living with buildings and roads.
I'm not Saudi but I live in saudi and I absolutely love it!! in fact the only place I feel empowered as a woman is when I'm in saudi. Thus I would suggest you keep your negative comments to your self not all women are interested to hear your rants.
wow all this hate on saudi... before anyone starts talking shit, please ask yourself this question: are the things i hate about saudi true things that i have seen with my own eyes? or was it something that i heard someone say to someone else...
I'm sad that in the year 2014 people can still be manipulated by "facts" taken out of context and turned into something completely different. We -as humans- should be getting more enlightened and educated. We should differentiate between facts and claims. We should be critical and skeptical... not brainwashed...
