Our wishes of condolences to this poor girl and her entire family.
Yes Black Stain, you're perfectly right. These girls, living and working far away from home at a very young age, should get the necessary support.
Once I had a discussion with a Japanese crew. She had been treated badly by her Indian CSD and came to the cockpit to find some moments of peace (yes, at that time "normal" CCs were still allowed in the cockpit). During our discussion she told us that after 6 months in Doha she had more and more of a hard time standing the pressure and humiliations by the company and the locals in Doha. Her moral had been brought down to below zero. But resigning wasn't an option for her before finishing 2 years of service. Cause if she resigned after 6 months only, she would be perceived as a looser back home (family, CV, her future career).
Maybe in Corea they have similar work ethics than in Japan? Anyways, we all know that once "the workforce" has arrived in Qatar, nobody cares. The locals just use and abuse.
Popey are you sure you live in Doha?
If yes, I think you're becoming the first expat ever to be wished a serious legal battle in this country! You might even get a letter of the National Human Rights Comittee of Qatar confirming your claim. But the same letter will strongly advise you not to take legal action against your company cause they assure you that the procedure would take a long time, be costly, it's outcome unsure and forged evidence might be used against you!
In case you live in, for example, Norway, I understand your quote. Should you really be living in the Middle East,well, in this case I think you're writing a lot of
