Hi All,
In few days I have to go to Riyadh and stay there for couple of months (work related travel). So I did a little googling to find out how is life in Riyadh. I have came to know all the rules and regulations which are need to be followed during my stay in there and all are pretty much ok and can be obeyed. But I still have some more queries. If you guys can help me with that then I will be grateful to you.
1. I would like to carry my own laptop with me. So what kind of precautions I need to take about the contents of my laptop? Do they check the contents while I will be entering in Saudi Arabia ?
2. Can I use camera-mobile phone in Riyadh? I mean, I will not take any pictures with that, I will use it only for taking calls. But is it objectionable to use camera attached mobile on roads?
3. Do they also check my mobile contents while entering to Riyadh? I keep some of my access codes in my mobile which are very sensitive data. What should I do to protect them?
4. Is there any restrictions about wearing jeans ?
5. I may have to stay in Riyadh upto November/ December. I know that, right now weather of Riyadh is very hot but I would like know about the temperature in October to December (specially at night) so that I can pack my jackets accordingly.
6. Can I carry my own medicines ? (like medicines for cough and cold, fever, headache etc).
7. I saw a thread about torrent sites which can be accessed from Riyadh in this website. I read that those torrent sites are blocked which do not need registrations. So I have to get access to registration based torrent sites like IPTorrents. But it is a invitation based site. So can anyone please send me an invitation?
This is the first time I am setting foot in Saudi Arabia, that's why some of my queries may sound silly. Please forgive me for that. Please clear my doubts. Thanks a lot in advance.
