The issues addressed in the article is a soup of different flavors. I do not understand what the society gains when they use the wives of foreign workers to correct the imbalance of the male/female ratio.

This subject was raised many times as a local issue, had to do with lack of male/female imbalance of nationals, and how that effects the ratio of women who are yet to be married.

Accordingly, there are two issues, and people should keep them so. Social engineering is not intended for transient work force, rather for nationals.
