Problems Faced by Saudi Arabia

Problems Faced by Saudi-Arabian ArabiaSaudi Arabia is the largest soil in the Arabian Peninsula. It has an appraise macrocosm of 27.5 million. Riyadh is the capital of Saudi Arabia. The official spoken language in is Arabic and the Saudi legal system is based on the Islamic constitution. It is the mansionland of the Islam, where the two major holy mosques argon found. They observed oil in 1936 which do the country wealthier. Oil accounts for more than(prenominal) than 90 percent of exports and nearly 75 percent of govern workforcet revenues. It provides the political relation with bills to provide health c be and education. at that place are no taxes taken by the government from the residents. Saudi Arabia faces many serious paradoxs which postulate assistance like any other country. According to the researches, Women in Saudi are non allowed to vote only men were admit to vote in the 2005 elections of 179 municipal councils of the country. Also in recent article of al-shaq al-awsat newspaper announce that Saudi Arabia has got the lowest percentage of the world with women constitute 5% of turn tailforce. And posterior u imagine that genius person dies each hour in a car accidents because of the high advance? how terrifying is this? what is more, in a narrative of several studies and hummer prevalence 20% to 40% of the population jackpot. This essay will discuss three major issues women pay offs, car accidents and smoking in Saudi Arabia and the possible solutions for each problem.One of the main major problems that are considered in the Saudi society is women rights. The men and the religious constabulary in Saudi claim that in Islam womens place is at home taking care of their preserves and families, which is non true it is just intellectual invasion. Women plunk for from discrimination in the labor market in that respectfore they could not work in the same place with men their job, according to the men in Saudi, is to stay at home to take responsibility of the house and bull with their freedom. For instant, women have no right choosing their husbands, it is usually arranged by their family or the man chooses her and driving is forbidden for them, by law. Besides, women have no right to vote and not allowed to be a part of the weekly council which is where Saudi citizens complaint to a certain member of the royal family who controls the country. Moreover, women are not able to study, travel or work unless they hasten the permission from their parents. Although they are allowed to travel they still have to get permission every-time they go to the airport. In addition, all schools and some malls are sex-segregated. As a offspring of this, men began using that as an advantage by pursuing violence and abusing them in any way possible. However, women try to admit this problem. For example, a few geezerhood ago a group of women from different parts of the country quest a petition, written in it recogniz e woman as eligible, without the need to have the escort of the legal supervisor -such as a father, husband or brother- to be present in case a hatful registration record is needed for a woman to start furrow and the woman is in need to get her own legitimate and civilized right, starting from her right to learn, work and health care but not to be conditioned on the permission of the legal supervisor to her rights to enrapture her property after her death to her inheritors under the rule of civil process on equal footing with man. The government is trying their surmount to tackle this and they started by announcing to install women identification cards when they register on their custodians identification cards in previous whereas the key reason of treating women in the wrong way refers to g balanceer apartheid so it needs time to get over this ineffectual idea.Secondly, driving cars in a high speed causes many accidents in Saudi Arabia. It costs the government a readiness o f money yearly which cause decrease in the economy of the country. what is more, the garbled of human which costs lives and cost their families tears and long nights without sleeping harassment about what is glide path next. Is it death or disability for the rest of their lives? slew are dying daily even if they escape the death there is a high possibility to get paralyzed or disable. In a report said that the average age of death causalities that result from car accident is 34 age, which means that 26 working years were lost for each person. The economic in vex of each 26 years is calculated in the annual economic losses of Saudi. The report found that 65% of mint with minor causalities need up to 20 days in hospitalized treatment and up to 70 days for rehabilitation. On the other hand, 33% of the minor causalities need up to a teeming year in treatment and rehabilitation, which results in complete loss of to the full year economic input for each person. The remaining 2% end up in permanently handicapped that may require up to 15 years of treatment and rehabilitation. According to the traffic division on the numeration for the last five years approximately more than 1.36 million accident cause death for 21,900 people and about 122,600 coming with injuries. Therefor some possible solution could be follows to help work out this dilemma. For instance, make the driving license test much difficult than it is direct with requirement to illustrate driving ability in the Saudis roads and give condensed driving lessons before people start using car. besides, that the government should both charge or punish for speeding. Also should send campaign which focalization in damage which causes from the high speed that all could push the people not to drive with high speed in order to help with this problem.finally, last but not least this phenomenon that spread in the Saudi-Arabian society like the pubic louse when it spreads in the body smoking. people who ever so smoke are more likely to expose heath problems lung cancer and heart disease. Smoking in Saudi is becoming like pursual for people. What is really horrifying that the people start smoking in the immature for the wrong reasons like to make them feel better about themselves and more confident to face the worlds. What is more, the number of smokers in Saudi is increasing which put extra pressure on the heath system. The essential problem which made them go toward smoking that the charge of the pack of cigarettes in Saudi is the cheapest in the world what is worse that there is not any law pack young people from buying cigarette. however, the people not only smoke cigarette but also shisha (hubby-bubbly) specially women thinking that it is not as harm as cigarette whereas it equals 15 cigarettes. According to one anti-smoking organization said Saudi Arabia has fourth highest number of smokers per capita in the world. There are 6 million smokers and a growing number of women light up. Also 27% of students in intermediate level smoke, up to 51% of the of the female teachers and educators smoke and 5% of the people in Saudi have lung cancer. The director of the ministry of health s anti-smoking program contended that Saudi Arabia loses SR8 one thousand thousand because of tobacco and spends SR3.5 billion treating smokers every year. which is affect the economy of the country. So government should condense more in the public problem that faces Saudi Arabia providing awareness campaigns which show the dangerous of smoking and the damage that it causes plus of prohibition smoking in public and close places. besides rising the price of the pack of cigarettes that is some of the credible solutions which can assist in result this major problem.To sum up, we discussed the three major problem that faces Saudi Arabia. We rede some of the possible solutions that government can follow. However, government is trying the outmatch to help in solve this problems which is considered as society issues and this type of problem need more time to be solve because it needs the government concentrates and the society effort at the same time which make it harder to tackle although Saudi Arabia it is not the only country that faces problem each country has it own problem and I think that each country should focus in their problems. above all, lately in the last 2 years government is putting an extra effort in this with is perceptible from the hearty Saudis citizens and shocking i the same time because no one hold that enormous change in that short time.Bibliography1)Rita Henley Jensen (March 7, 2005).
