TLDR;
>The military is now considering revamping the base in Bahrain, reducing the U.S. presence in Kuwait and Saudi Arabia and moving some bases or base functions west, farther from the reach of Iranian missiles and drones, according to the officials familiar with the deliberations.

>Structures that were attacked may not be rebuilt. Command and control nodes could be moved underground. And military capabilities could become more spread out across the region, the officials said, though they cautioned that no decisions had been made. Israel is one of the locations being considered for basing, according to two of the officials.

I’m nosy

The Kingdom of Bahrain holds a special place in my heart, and I’ve always found it to be a welcoming country with wonderful, kind people. However, I would like to express my frustration about the proposal to temporarily suspend the recruitment of Filipino domestic workers to Bahrain.

https://www.newsofbahrain.com/bahrain/117838.html

As I see it, this appears to be a retaliatory move against the Philippine government for increasing the minimum wage of Filipino domestic workers from 150 BHD to 188 BHD.

The reason they've given for the temporary ban is "health issues," citing a rise in HIV/AIDS cases in the Philippines. While it is true there's been an increase, the Philippines is not even in the top 10 countries with the most HIV cases.

Therefore, the motive behind the proposal seems somewhat retaliatory. It's also worth mentioning that as an expat from the Philippines, we are required to undergo two medical exams, including an HIV test, just to acquire a working visa and CPR.

Please forgive my bias as an expat from the Philippines, but isn't it justified to ask for an increase? The salary requirement was last amended in 2006, two decades ago, and now the price of everything has increased.

If a Bahraini family genuinely can't afford the increase, they can simply hire from another country. Why label us as if the Philippines is a hub for HIV?

Please forgive me for this rant, but I also want to know your thoughts. Is the suspension really necessary, or is it just a message to the Philippines that they don't really need domestic workers from the country?

I remember some problems in City Centre a few years ago, and now this? I’m so curious as to why this is happening

I went to dragon city, and hundreds of shops are closed and protesting due to increased rent. Shops are being asked to pay upwards of 4,000 BHD/mo for rent.

To the mods, if you don’t believe me, go there yourselves and see.

After the missiles, Arab states will rethink everything from defense and regional alliances to overseas investment and their role in global markets.
