Bangladeshis Banned

Bahrain's Ministry of the Interior has stopped issuing work visas to Bangladeshis. The reason is that guest workers of that nationality have been involved in crimes against Bahrainis, and despite the protests of human rights organizations, I suspect national prejudice is running high. This may also be an excuse to dump workers from democratic nations, something regular readers know I've been concerned about.
