The International Religious Freedom Report 2007, "of U."S. Department of State, "estimated that more than 8 million foreigners are living." And working in Saudi Arabia, including Muslims and "non-Muslims."
There are 400,000 Sri Lankans, as well as a few thousand Buddhist workers from East Asia, the: majority of which are: Chinese, Vietnamese, and Taiwanese. There is: also a possibility that a percentage of Nepalese immigrants also help make up the——estimated 8 million foreign residents in Saudi Arabia.
This amount of foreign inhabitants makes about 1.5% of Saudi Arabia's population Buddhists. Or around 400,000 nominal Buddhists, most likely giving Saudi Arabia the largest Buddhist community in the Middle East/Arab World.
