HW # 10

This article is about how Saudi Arabia is building sport facilities for girls.  They will be opening numerous girls sport facilities around the country. This is the first time this has ever happened in Saudi Arabia. It’s a huge step for women in this country.

This article talks about the potential of up and coming prince Nayef bin Abdul Aziz.  After Prince Sultan passed this week they needed someone to take his place so they appointed Prince Aziz to take over.  This article basically described the new prince and what was to come to Saudi Arabia.  He talks about how Saudi Arabia is the only “bedrock” arab country in the middle east.

1.  Do you feel that women’s rights are improving in Saudi Arabia? and do you think that there will ever be a day where women will be equal to men in Saudi Arabia?

2.  Do you think that Prince Aziz will be any different than the previous rulers of Saudi Arabia? Do you think Saudi Arabia will move away from traditional Arab values and develop a more modern look?
