In May of last year, a Saudi news website reported that a citizen had traveled to Bangladesh to attend the wedding of one of his employees and learn about the culture of the South Asian nation.
Saleh Al Senaidi, the Saudi sponsor, stated that he and a friend had traveled to the employee's home village near the capital Dhaka for the occasion.
"I have known him for five years. I largely depend on him in work because of his honesty and keenness to safeguard reputation of the work," he informed Sabq.
The Saudi employer was impressed by the Bangladeshis' hospitality, stating that a number of them insisted on inviting him to lunch, supper, or tea. See Also : Qiwa adds new feature for employers
