That is incredibly immature guest.

I hope you don't think like that guest and understand I just meant a fun prez. And they told me I was uneducated.

Guest have you been to Dubai or spoken to a labour worker

I think they reached their comment limit. XD

I'm 98% sure you never have. Let me tell you: the conditions can be bad, yes, but THATS under companies. It's not the sheikh's fault, nor his family's. Please shut the fuck up and educate yourself

Me or the guest?

The royal family is chill as fuck though guys they've done a lot of good stuff for the community they don't like sit around and 'literally force labour workers into slavery' and shit I assure you

The guest

Sorry I typed those one after another so your comment didn't show until I refreshed the page

Ok, no worries.:3

I just wanted to make sure 'cuz I don't want anyone here to hate me(except for that guest).

Makes sense lol

My father used to work in Dubai, apparently you can't gain nationality, so you can stay there only as long as you work.

The guest is correct though. He shouldn't have been using all those expletives though. Everyone sees the UAE as an advanced/luxurious/beautiful country, but they do use slave labour from countries (mainly south east Asia), for them to work there and they take away their passports so that they can't go home.

^this person knows their stuff

Doesn't give the guest the right to spazz out for no reason. He just acts so stupid, like he knows better than anyone because he states facts.

it's not everyone in Dubai though that does that, yecharon. It's mostly big name companies, like construction companies.

I never said 'Dubai', I said UAE, which also doesn't mean I'm saying everyone in UAE does that.

fair enough

but does the government know about the slavery issue? or just turn a blind eye?

they do know about it but there's not much they can do, honestly. There are laws against it but they don't have the people to check constantly on big businesses and construction sites to make sure everything's legal.
And people have the money and the means to make people believe that things are 100% legal and ok, whether that's bribing people who come to check, or bribing (or threatening) labour workers to lie and pretend they're doing swell.
Everybody knows it's a problem and the gov really does try, but there's not a lot they can do.

Different guest here. The conditions are horrible and many have died. The government is with this too. Its called the kafala system

I lived in Dubai for 5 years and was taught and told by many that the government was not in with it. The Kafala system is all over the Middle East, not (just?) Dubai.
