Russell Peters - Adventures in Saudi Arabia - This Is Not Happening - Uncensored

[@HamajiGotTalent]

As a Saudi guy, I agree this is how we Arabs and especially the people from the Peninsula (Gulf+Yemen) are, generous and kind. We have a saying in Arabic that translates to "Be generous to a generous person and you'd win him, be generous to a mean person and he'd rebel on you." So when we act generously to our guests and friends, we do it with good intentions believing the other person is generous and won't exploit us :)

What he said about the Bin Laden Family is pretty accurate, they're one of the wealthiest families not only in S.Arabia but in the entire M.East, despite the fact that they're originally immigrants from Yemen. Their development company has build huge infrastructure projects in S.Arabia and the other Emirates (I'm talking entire highways, airports, skyscrapers etc.), they own their own private bank and have investments in countless other companies. Most members of the family have been educated in the USA or the UK, at top universities and follow a very modern, western lifestyle. Osama himself had Western education, lived for many years in New York, where he worked in one of the family´s logistics/ shipping companies.

That Arab hospitality is no joke, and it's not just the Gulf. When I was learning colloquial Lebanese Arabic, the response to almost any compliment is "It's yours." When I was in Cairo on the subway, I was reading the signs to see which train to get on. Someone asked me where I was going, bought me a metro pass, rode with me to my stop, walked me to my hotel, and then went back to the subway to go where he needed to. If Westerners knew just one Arab family, they would see this

Russel is speaking about Tarek Bin Laden, who is a very prominent figure in Saudi Arabia and the Middle East in the world of property and infrastructure. A lot of great multi-billionaire projects regarding civil structures, water piping etc is done by his company in cities such as medina, Mecca, Riyadh and Jeddah. As well as many buildings in Dubai and Abu Dhabi were designed and built by his company. I know this, because a relative of mine who is a CFA (Chartered Financial Analyst) worked on one of the buildings in Dubai and personally met Tarek a few times. He is probably one of the most powerful figures in Saudi Arabia and as far as I know, speaks 7 different languages fluently and has an estimated net worth of $15 Billion.

Although it’s strange as your nickname is vietnamese and you support us foreign policies. You must love what us did in vietnam.

This is one of Russell's best and most mature bits, IMO. He pokes fun at another culture without mocking it. He imitates an accent in a non-mean spirited fashion. The story is full of twists and turns, but still plausible enough to be completely engaging. And the greatest twist of all is Russell's own relative ignorance. It's wonderful self deprecation that demonstrates he's really grown as a comedian.

He handled this story soooooo well! This is what makes me such a big fan of him. He breaks boundaries with his stories and is not afraid of going against the stereotypes rather than enforcing them to explain the truth. The Western media loves to portray Saudi Arabia as this incredibly backward and ignorant country when in fact, its one of the most advanced countries in the world. The people there are incredibly friendly, respectful and ridiculously generous. Once I went to Jaddah and I had a Saudi mall security guy help me cross the road without me even asking him. Store guys at malls would get me and my family chairs to sit on and even brought us free juice and soda while we were shopping there. I have been to so many countries yet I have never experienced such kindness and generosity the way I did in Saudi Arabia and the UAE.

[@basboosa2812]

Thats sooo true! I have met many caucasians who lived in Saudi Arabia for over 10 years and were treated likely royalty with incredibly high incomes and benefits provided to them by their workplace. One friend said she lived there for 25 years working at a hospital that payed for her car (including the cost of gas), house (a freaking mansion), and gave her and her direct family free tickets to any country they want to visit every year. Her children were all enrolled at top American schools.

[@nadermaroun6563]

Hayah K i wouldn't say royalty because that would be wrong ... and muslim countries are a bit hostile/opressive of other religions especially in ksa ... but that being said in the west like usa ... the middle eastern culture is wrongly portrayed and is pictured way more aggressive than it is
