يرحم امكم ابي محل سعره معقول ولذيذ يسوي كيكة حق الأطفال او تنفع لمعرفة الجنين وكذا

A Bangladeshi labor worker in Jeddah met with an accident and has a broken elbow. His iqama is expired, and now the company is refusing to pay for his treatment. GOSI is also not covering the case because of the expired iqama.

What options does he have legally or medically in Saudi Arabia? Can he still file a labor complaint or get emergency treatment somehow?

Does anyone know affordable hospitals, charity clinics, or government facilities in Jeddah that may help expatriate workers in such situations?

The injury is serious and he needs urgent treatment. Any genuine advice would be appreciated.

Hey everyone!

Little about me, 28M Born and living in Jeddah currently

I’m looking to expand my social circle here in Jeddah and meet some cool, like-minded people. Making new friends as an adult can be a bit of a challenge, so I figured I'd throw a line out here!

I like to do a lot of things and open to any suggestions dm me what your favorite things are and we can meet up in public for anything like cafes to activities.

Introduce yourself please!

Sometimes I wonder if people still fall in love slowly anymore, or if everyone is just rushing through connections now.

And do men and women even want the same things from love today?

I’d honestly like to hear different opinions.

Hello, I wanted to know if there’s anybody here who has studied from University of Jeddah or has any information regarding it? How’s the university? Do the degrees have value and is it recognized internationally?

If not, what are some good unis that I can try out? As a non Saudi. Thank you

I've been living here for a while now, and coming from a western culture like country and living here in Saudi is very hard indeed.

Like my life here has been a roller coaster, no friends, and family that supports me, so I tried my best to talk with my colleagues.

To be honest I feel so down, and I have this one colleague he is a guy and I really love his vibe because it's just light, but I don't have anything for him, I know myself.

So today while at my work, Im very exhausted, so I tried to take a rest in one of our empty room, just sit there and relax, normally everyone can go there and talk, just to give you an idea how the empty room looks like, its a glass door, so everyone can see what's inside and everyone can come because the door is never lock, so I just talk there with one of my colleauge and one of my other colleague told me that I should never stay there with any other man, I can stay there when everyone is out.

I appreciate him for telling me that because I know that he is just concern and just looking after me, but after that I feel lonely, because I feel like I will not have a time to have a proper talk with him again or to any man in the office. I feel sad about it, because I don't feel the vibe of the girls in our office, they have their own worlds, and only the guys are the people I can talk to properly.

How I wish I have a bestfriend here where Im living so I will never feel alone. When there's a gathering in our office, I always felt left out, because I dont have any friends to call me, unlike them, everyone has a friend, but me? Im all alone, only the guys care, but I think im gonna distance myself because i feel like it doesn't look good.

I just need a friend, but unfortunately it's hard to find that here. And I even cannot go out because I have a tight budget so the only place I can talk to people f2f is by my work, because if I go out I need to spend and uber here is so expensive.

A stray cat that I have known for quite some time is pretty sick, is there any free/budget friendly veterinary I can take the cat to?

السلام عليكم ورحمة الله وبركاته.

أنا بعد ٦ شهور غربه اخيرا راجع الغربية وصعب ارجع لسوق العمل (رواتب قليلة، عشوائية بالشغل، ما فيها تطور مهني، كرف بدون فايده وتقدير) بحكم اني مهندس برمجه ماعندي الا خبره سته شهور وكلها عباره عن تدريب، لو بشتغل بشتغل بشي موب بمجالي ولو بحصل وظيفه بتكون بس حق تضيع وقت ولا منها اي فائده (نفس وظيفتي الي قبل حطوني فيها مشرف مشروع) .

فا عموما فكرتي بطلع رخصة اعمال حره واشتغل على نفسي بدال الكلام الفاضي والبربسه حقت الشركات، وبنزل الاسواق ادور على عملاء اقدم لهم حلول تقنية (مواقع لمحلاتهم، تطبيقات توصيل على حسب احتياجهم, صيانه وتجهيز استضافه لمواقعهم وبرانداتهم)، ومجال عملي راح احب يكون (تطوير مواقع، صناعة محتوى، تدريب او محتوى تعليمي، وبالمستقبل يوم تزين الامور مادياً تطوير العاب).

فا ايش رايكم بالفكره وممكن تكون مجديه ولا بس بضيع وقتي، عموما أنا بجربها ٦ شهور ومن ناحية تنظيم وقتي أنا جيد بالموضوع، وسوق العمل كذا ولا كذا احتاج اخذ منه استراحه لأنهم مصو الشغف مني مص وظيفة ٨ شهور كلها قلة حيا بعدها حصلت برنامج تدريب مبتدىء بالتوظيف كله كذب وسحبو علينا يقولون مافي وظائف 🤣، فا عموما ايش رايكم وشكرا على القراءة.

Anyone else living in jeddah? If so can you recommend me a physical store I can go to and browse? What I mean by gaming accessories is headphones, keyboards, mice, etc. I like to see what's available and pick it up for myself if its good quality, so I want a physical store to actually touch and feel the item, I would also prefer a store that doesn't markup prices by 50 dollars

Hi all, I will relocate with my family to Jeddah after Hajj period. I'm looking for an international school for my kids, a daughter 7 y.o will be Grade 2 soon, and a boy 5 y.o first time attend school, so maybe KG2 or KG3. Due to financial limitation, I'm only able to afford max SR1K/month (include transport would be great) for each, it would be great if there is something like sibling discount or else. It's possible that I will live around between these districts: As Safa / Al Rehab / Faisaliyah / Mishrifah / Aziziyah.

If you have any recommendations, I need your help to tell me which one, I'm planning to do some visits.

Thank you!

I want to gift my fiancée a new iPhone, but I’d like to present it in a meaningful and elegant way without making it feel flashy or like I’m showing off. What are some tasteful ways to package and give the gift?

Is there a place? Preferably in the middle or east of jeddah.

Or is it only for boys or only for girls? Are there places for mixed groups?
