I'm glad to see that there are people who witness these atrocities and are helping to make it known...even if it's just a blog on the net.

My wife's mother has been a maid for 15 years in Hong Kong. She is treated fairly, has her own passport in possession, and made enought to put all of her children through college.

Qataries wouldn't have to worry about their maids deserting them if they paid better and treated them human.
