Last time out when I had my transit flight boarding from Saudi Arabia, I saw a big bunch of people using camera phones as normal at the airport terminal.

Female college students carrying cameraphones on campus in any college in Saudi Arabia could face a SR500 fine and 3-year suspension under recent regulations issued by the Ministry of Education,reports MENAFN.

Numerous schools in the region do not allow mobile phones either with or without cameras on the premises. This move was after students' misconduct was noted and repeated including students calling each other during class within the classroom, photographing teachers and school mates during class, as well as sending each other indecent text messages via Bluetooth.

Last month the ministries of interior, commerce and industry, communications and information technology and finance separately submitted to the Royal Court requests for cellular phones with cameras to be openly permitted in the Kingdom."
