Dubai, bruises and labour

The oil rich country with its luxurious lifestyle and cuisine from around the world is a perfect holiday destination. But beneath the glitz and glamour there’s a dark side as thousands of migrant laborers toil away, hidden, always under surveillance of local forces. The migrant workers often forego wages they are entitled to and don’t have clean water to drink. It’s a life where the owner looks down on them with scorn and hatred, and treats them as good for nothing people despite working for them, tirelessly. Each of these migrant workers – the gardener, the shopkeeper and the taxi driver miss their families back home which makes life even more difficult.
