Saudi programmer here. I can count 4 immediate cousins who are programmers, from the top of my head; not to mention a number of my high school classmates, a few friends from college, and others that I've met here and there. The webdev team at my previous job was all Saudis; there were even girls in the team. Absence of evidence is not an evidence of absence.
