Marina Schwarz + 1,576 July 5, 2018 But I think it makes sense. You can't just upend decades of a certain way of thinking in a couple of months. I don't think anyone thought about it, though... 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
John Foote + 1,135 JF July 5, 2018 Seriously, women driving is a good thing, normalization than needs to happen. The profitability of Aramco. So if they do a real IPO. As 95% stockholders they’ll still get the profits. The transparency issue of how much the government gets, verses lines royality pockets will take creative accounting. There are 1 million private drivers IK, I sponsored one myself. These will get phased out thru reduced requirements, and increased fees (now 200SR month). Ask many folks who have worked in Saudi. The women are a genuine beacon of hope. I worked for one, western eduction, tier 1 MBA. Smart driven women all over. Arabia is full of contradictions, I think 2030 is practically a hoax, but what is being tried has elements of good, turning the right direction and I hope they pull it off. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
