She made these comments during a media briefing where she conversed with the Ambassador via phone to inquire into the matter.

The Minister presented concerns raised by the individual’s family that the woman who was employed overseas for seven years could not have committed suicide.

There was so much outcry when exporting monkeys was considered. Yet SL exports thousands of poor women to Arabia. Shame on all SL professionals, your silence is disgusting.
