Lao women have played a central role in the countrys economic development over
the past two decades. Womens participation exceeds mens in the economically
active population. Women made up 52.8 percent of the active labour force (15-44
year olds) in 1985

Moreover if communists rule there... communists control media and are atheist by default so religious conservatives wouldn't even be heard there...?

Just for TL.

I'd rather not say what country this is but a 5 minute session on google and some reasoning should be enough to deduct what country I am talking about. It's not Laos haha.

Certainly not true. I have been to a couple now, and most are not close to what I am describing.

If I had to guess, i'd say he's in Saudi Arabia. There have been many similar lashing cases and i've heard very similar stories from people I know who've worked there.

Edit: Zatic, can I ask what you do for a living?

my dad works in the foreign devision of his company, so he travels a lot and I get to visit him during my holidays. He's living in Qatar at the moment, which seems very western oriented compared to what you describe, but I have to agree with you that you just yearn for the sight of women after a while. It's not just that there aren't any, but you never know how to act around them, if do spot a herd of them running after their family chief. And yes, traffic is a bloody nightmare.
