Offering LGBT employees in countries with harsh anti LGBT laws the opportunity to escape is a great idea. However, unfortunately it might be hard to get a lot of companies to do it., especially if it might tick off the authorities in countries with Homophobic laws. Contrary to what the article says if word gets out that your company is doing this, it might jeopardize their business over there.

agreed, but I think if a company is weighing up the human rights benefit versus real world cost (x loss of ability to affect change if they lost the market as you suggested) then we all win…
