A ban on the export of women was expected, otherwise they should allow them to go at eighteen, most of the girls come home only for the marriage! if they go at 21, can they marry at 22? The average marriageable age for brides in Sri Lanka is not thirty, I suppose!

18 or 21. what is the big difference ? if we can vote at 18 why not foreign employment ?
The Judge Wednesday, 26 January 2011 01:52 PM
SENDING WOMEN TO GATHER DOLLARS , particularly fro the ARAB countries. STOP THIS EXPORT OF WOMEN, specially to the Middle East.

Being young or the age is NOT the barrier.
All men and women should be tought and well trained on survival and the vises, especially in the middle eastern countries.House maids should be trained and tought in raising early alarm and an easier access to the Employment Departmant of the Sri Lankan Embassies.

Make sure they know the basic stuff for survival, even 21 is useless if they don't .

Stupid rules of this government. As a developing country Sri Lanka should encourage it's citizens to work as much as they can and help the country rebuild. If a person goes abroad it is a way of earning foreign currency. My opinion is that work until u die.

What a joke: there are "experts" in this country who can provide a passport with any age mentioned on it.

I suppose it really doesn't matter if it is 18 or 21 years. What matters is the mechanism the state puts in to safe guard the maids who go for employment to the ME. Although the govt. admits that the forex earned and remitted here is its life line, sweet nothing is done to safe guard the people who make this possible!

Another bogus initiative by the state. Where is the guarantee of the state, by initiating this law, that housemaids aged 21 years or more are safe from the issues plaguing these migrant workers?
