The recent News item “24 nails hammered into the maid’s body” may have angered some but this was not an isolated or one off cases.
Such incidents happen almost every day in this part of the World but seldom get the media limelight.
I am happy that except of her traumatic experience and entailing consequences, the lady is now out of any danger.
Should Sri Lanka stop sending unskilled labour abroad?
I think this incident should be used as a springboard to start that process in earnest.
The initially the financial consequences of such a decision may felt.
But the adverse social consequences come along with the exporting of unskilled labour abroad such as this are far greater and long lasting then the financial consequences, hence now it is time for the Government of Sri Lanka to take the bold step and impose a total ban.
It said that the Paradise is open only to kind hearts and I wonder where would the couple go after what they have done to their maid.
I am sure not to the PARADISE !
