Ali is sure that he will pack his bags to leave the Kingdom at the end of this year and head to the United States or a European country to enroll in the King Abdullah Scholarship Program, where the Ministry of Education will take care of his expenses for the whole period of his studies. His cousin Basem is packing too, but to go to Egypt to join military service, **w that he is turned 18. their paths will eventually separate, and Basem?s situation (having a Saudi mother and a foreign father) can?t even be compared to the years before the late King Abdullah issued decrees giving rights to Saudi women who are married to foreigners. Many Saudi women married to foreigners said the law still doesn?t fathom their situation and hasn?t done them justice, just because they are women, which increases their burden.
