When we left India to go to Thailand (see post below) there was an interesting observation I made at the immigration counter. There were two ladies who were in complete burqas that covered their face down to their feet. I asked our immigration officer how they deal with burqas. The immigration lady said with a laugh, "We need to figure that out still." They just let them go right on through without matching their passport to their face. I immediately thought about how easy it would be to traffick people to other countries. It also seems like a security violation. And an easy way for criminals to leave the country.
