One of the most repressive countries for women on earth is about to make history with a step that will raise many eyebrows. The surface level detail is that Saudi Arabia is set to open a luxury beach resort where women can wear bikinis. Sounds ludicrous, right?
IT’S TRUE.
Prince Mohammed bin Salman, the country’s heir to the coveted throne has very interesting plans. A beach resort will be opened up under exclusive laws for all the ladies have cosy time wearing bikinis. This establishment is based on granting Saudi women a relief and basically, amend the tarnishing image of the country reserving minor rights for women.
The Saudi prince also believes this step would be integral in “modernizing” the economy. A Red Sea resort in the northwest part of the country which can host foreigners as well. This project would primarily be governed by laws adopted on par with standards around the globe.
For a country that does not allow women to drive or let travel without permission from a male relative, such a step is surprising indeed. Keeping that in mind, we should not forget the grave laws enforced by Saudi government on women. Just last moment, a young Saudi model was arrested after she strolled in a miniskirt in a village.
The viral video surfaced all over the social media and became the talk of the town. People witnessed just how repressed the laws are for women there. Fast forward a few weeks, we learned about the all exclusive bikini resort for women in Saudi Arabia. That escalated quickly!
What do you guys think? Is Saudi Arabia right to introduce as such exclusive rights for women?
