Have you ever been to Dubai? I have not. But I've heard that it is an incredible city. Built in the middle of an Asian desert, participating in the race for the world's highest building. Pulling in tourists from the whole world. Great city, right? This is one of the two faces.

And the second face? That would be not the sight of enormous buildings, but thousands of human faces. Faces from India, Bangladesch, Pakistan and Sri Lanka. Faces in which you see; tiredness, resignation, frustration... They are the faces of people, who came here, so that their wives and children could eat. Maybe they hoped for much more than that. A nice rich life like the Europeans have. Now those people work the whole day for 200 dollars per month, they sleep eleven people in one litlle room. The contract was different, but what do their managers care about some contract? If they try to protest, they are being threatend with deportation, or worse. Dubai si often compared to the egyptian phyramids. The mighty, rich pharaons took the common folk to do their dirty work, most of them came back to their homes barely alive. Now the workers in Dubai more or less share their fate. null null
