Answers to your queries: -

CAN ANYONE TELL THE DETAILS ABOUT?

JUBAIL INDUSTRIAL CITY.

It is in the Eastern Province of KSA, nearest Airport is Dammam.

2.We are going to shift our residence to JUBAIL AREA. MY HUSBAND GOT THE OFFER IN SABIC IBN ZAHR. SO EXACTLY WHICH PLACE IS SUITABLE FOR MY RESIDENCE BETWEEN HIS OFFICE AND MY KIDS (INDIAN) SCHOOL. AND

Suitable place of stay is Jubail itself, there is an Indian School. Not many option - I guess there is only one school.

4. PLEASE TELL ME THE TRAVELLING HOURS FROM OFFICE TO HOUSE. AND SCHOOL TO HOUSE.

It depends upon the location where you are staying.

5. HOW TO FIND THE HOUSE ACCOMADATION FOR SOUTH INDIAN FAMILY. (ANYWEBSITE IS THERE).

No such website noticed, please get in touch with the Indian community members they may assist you.

6. COST OF LIVING, COST OF HOUSING

Cost of housing and living is comparitively much lesser than Qatar.

7. QUALITY OF SCHOOL EDUCATION.

Average to good (not many options).

8. NEAR BY ANY ACTIVITIES CLASS IS THEIR LIKE ABACUS, ART & CRAFT, KEYBOARD, MUSIC AND HINDI TUITION. APPROXIMATE HOW MUCH THEY WILL CHARGE FOR EACH.

Not many options as here in Doha, if you find any such fee may vary - no organisations are doing such training.

9. LADIES MUST WEAR BURKHA (WE ARE BRAHMIN) AND WHAT IS DIFFERENCE BETWEEN BURKHA AND ABAYAS.

It is a must. It doesnt matter which relegion you belong to - you are supposed to cover your entire body except head. and for head you may use a scarf kind of stuff not mandatory to cover your face unless you area local.

Burkha and Abaya is basically same. Burkha covers entire body including the head and face. Abaya only covers your body below the neck.

10. AND ALSO PLEASE TELL ME ABOUT THAT COMPANY DETAILS.

Sabic is the largest fertilizer manufacturing company similar to Qafco in Qatar. Good company with benefits.

Hi

Jubail Industrial City is basically 100% Industrial City - far away from the Eastern Province. Eastern province is known as Al Khobar, Dammam etc., But Jubail Industrial City has since been developed a more, giant companies are settled there and specially SABIC is a Saudi Government company.

There are a lot of Indian families there, Indian School is there, shopping malls and everything is available.

There is no difference between "Abaya" and "Burkha". Ladies and girls above 10 years must have to wear "Abaya" or Burqa. This is complusary there. You will not have any freedom (espcially for women) like here in Qatar. Ladies cannot drive in Saudi, ladies are not allowed to move alone freely. Bascially, you will feel that you are in a Jail, for the person moving from Qatar. No Cinema halls, no bars, no public entertainments etc.,

For your information, I was in Saudi for almost 12 years.

Good Luck to you.
