In a hall filled with soon-to-be migrant workers, an instructor runs a multimedia programme on Sharia law. The picture on the screen changes from a hanging to a decapitation, an amputation to a gruesome public stoning.
“These are the laws of the countries where you will be working,” M.H.M Azwer, the instructor, says. He explained what each punishment was meted out for. He shows short films depicting various aspects of Sharia law. And he urges the trainees, whose eyes are riveted on the screen, to follow accepted behaviour while working abroad.
The men and women were participants of a pre-departure workshop conducted for migrant workers by the Sri Lanka Bureau of Foreign Employment (SLBFE).
