Escape from Saudi Arabia

Young Woman Escaping From Saudi Arabia Because Of The Unfair Treatment Towards Women In The Country   

Even with the reform recently made in Saudi Arabia that allegedly helps women suffering from abuse, young girls are still afraid to stay, due to the different habits that to these days countries like Saudi Arabia still maintain.  As a result, women, especially young girls are afraid to live in there.

This topic is running around social media, due to a young girl named Rahaf Mohammed, currently in Bangkok, Thailand going on Twitter to expose her situation with her father and brother, claiming she escaped from Saudi Arabia and them because she wasn´t safe. 

Rahaf begged the authorities to not turn her over to her family, and the country decided to help her and keep her safe.

But what about those who never find any help? what is it going to

happen with those countries where women are seen as inferior and without a voice? The answer is education: Educate a woman and empower homes and communities, as Malala Yousafzai is doing now.
