Filipinos in Bahrain
[edit]- ... that 13 years after a Filipino ambassador said "Bahrain is the only country in the Middle East where there are no Filipinos in jail", a Filipino man there was jailed for cross-dressing?
- Comment: I don't know if the hook seems misleading (the cross-dressing man was not the first Filipino jailed after the ambassador made that statement), but I was trying to make the hook more interesting.

- ALT1: ... that due to the Bahraini uprising, the Philippine government temporarily implemented a "deployment ban" on Filipinos in Bahrain that prevented new Filipinos from entering the country?
- Reviewer needed now that two hooks are on offer. BlueMoonset (talk) 15:10, 24 January 2013 (UTC)
The article itself checks out on length, time, sourcing, and so on, but a QPQ review is needed since the nominator lists seven prior DYK credits (see WP:DYK#Eligibility criteria item 5). As far as the hook, I think the following deals with the reservation noted by the nominator:
- ALT2 ... that in 1998 a Filipino ambassador said "Bahrain is the only country in the Middle East where there are no Filipinos in jail", but in 2011 a Filipino man there was jailed for cross-dressing?
This will pass once the QPQ review is done. Antony–22 (talk⁄contribs) 04:19, 30 January 2013 (UTC)

- ALT3 ... that due to the 2011 Bahraini uprising, the Philippine government temporarily banned the entrance of Filipinos into Bahrain?
