I think Dubai is the perfect example of a dystopian city controlled by huge companies that dont care with the workers, while the city is inhabited by the richest people in the world who dont care about the workers too

I literally walk around everyday and see those workers and I feel bad for them. they see me and be like "a black man wowoww" but im looking back at them and im like "sigh". Each country has their issues and Dubai is one of them. They should use their own ppl for work instead of immigrants from poorer countries.

As a person born and raised for 16 years in Dubai, and lived in Sharjah. This cannot begin to scratch the surface on the dystopia that is that fucking corporate hell hole. No birth right citizenship, no attainable process of gaining citizenship either. From day 1 of my birth until I left, the government treated me as a guest, going so far as to not allowing my family to be even considered permanent residents, but temporary residents. This applies to every single Arab, Nepali, Bengali, Indian, just everyone who isn't Emarati. You need to continuously renew your residency or risk deportation to whatever hellhole you tried escaping from to raise a family. This is but 1 example of human rights abuses, how about Emaar and other Khaleeji companies building recruitment offices in impoverished nations, signing contracts with workers some up to 30 years of labor, only to confiscate your passport when you arrive, even though its not "legal". This country is simply built on the backs of slaves who deserve to be freed. The fact they are viewed as lesser is genuinely disgusting, as they're human and without them, this sandcastle of a nation would literally grind to a halt.

Totally correct! I also spent a decent chunk of my childhood in Dubai/Sharjah as my dad is in oil and gas and the amount of effort he had to put in to get the Emarati’s to treat the workers (mostly Indian/South East Asian) with even a small shred of decency or concern for their safety was absurd. As an example one was going to send 30-40 workers into some tanks to do some coating/painting without doing a gas check and he had to argue for hours with the local site manager to stop him from doing it and when the other British supervisor took a gas test the levels were like 2-3 times a lethal dose, basically if my dad hadn’t been there to argue there would be at least a dozen deaths and I’m sure that same story probably played out many times more at other sites. It’s very depressing how little their society values the lives of other humans in general.

Okay, the human rights violations are awful, but the citizenship situation is a non-issue. Most places don't have birth right citizenship, that's more of an American continent/Oceania thing. In most places citizenship is inherited. The Emiratis have the right to maintain exclusive control of their territory, something Europe woefully forgot to do in their nations. But yes, the working conditions are not rightful.

@@HeortirtheWoodwarden if by 'the emiratis' you mean their royal family and lower aristocracy who retain complete control over the entire political apparatus (and if you don't then your entire premise is flawed), that's a psychotic take. you are literally arguing against birthright citizenship in a country who's ruling caste of a few dozen inbred cousins, *by nature of their birth*, was given complete control over the lives of 10 million people.

99% or people in Dubai can be classified into one of 3 groups. Just 3. 1) People with a UAE passport. Rich and powerful. 2) Rich expats working for corporations based in Dubai because there is no income tax, who cozy up to the local authorities. 3) Poor, foreign workers that have no rights, live in deplorable conditions, and are at the mercy of the other two. The nobles, the aristocrats, and the peasants. Modern Feudalism. And trust me, each one of those behaves exactly how you'd expect them to behave towards the others. It's fucking depressing.

They will lie about how hot it is so that builders cannot stop despite the fact it is over 50 degrees c. They cover up murders to make the crime rate lower and they put people in prison for minor charges for one person but not the other. It’s a horrible place and I would never go back despite it being my ‘home’. I am not proud of that or that place.

The story of that Dubai Frame is interesting. The building has a height of 150.24 meters and a width of 95.53 meters. The design was selected as the winner of the 2009 ThyssenKrupp Elevator International Award from 926 proposals to select an emblem for Dubai that represented its "new face". The project idea was initially conceived by Fernando Donis, who also helped design the CCTV Headquarters in Beijing and Jeddah International Airport. The idea behind it was when he was designing the structure, he saw Dubai as a city full of emblems and rather than adding another one, they proposed to frame them all. Five years after Fernando Donis won the competition, Donis said he was offered a contract by Dubai Municipality, but one of the clauses stated that he waives his intellectual rights to the project. He said that clause was a direct breach of an earlier clause in the original competition brief which stipulated that the author will keep his copyright. In 2016, he filed a lawsuit in a US federal court against the Municipality of Dubai and ThyssenKrupp Elevator. In his lawsuit, Donis claims that he has not received either a contract or compensation for his design. In 2018, it was reported that Donis and the Municipality of Dubai were engaged in a legal dispute over ownership of the copyright, but the case did not reach any conclusion

I personally always tried to be as generous and polite to the underpaid workers from countries like the Philippines and Pakistan, and what’s even worse is that many other expats of the middle and upper classes kinda just shove the human rights violations under the rug and never address the issue. It’s honestly quite a draining and toxic atmosphere to not only physically live in, but also socially surround yourself with. On another note, quite accurate video and keep up the content!

Now they are forced to live in misery and they can’t escape as there are guards surrounding their tents. And they earn so less that they can’t even do stuff. And are given just minimum food to live.

So I was born in Dubai 25 years ago to an Indian family, lived there until couple months ago and something I don't think has yet escaped the bubble Dubai lives in is the Emiratisation Scheme that the government is advocating for since the start of this year. If you've read the other comments you'll see that unless your father is an Emirati Citizen, you can't become an Emirati person regardless whether you were born there and have lived there and have contributed to the economy all your life. Since we're not actual citizens and simply expatriates, we have no rights and having no rights means they can essentially do whatever they want and we can't do anything about it, one of the big things is under paying non-Emirati folk (excluding people holding non-brown country passports). They will blatantly tell you, if asked, that you are being underpaid as an Indian person compared to someone with a British passport, solely based on where you're from. And don't even try to compare salaries with Emirati people, they get paid exorbitant amounts, for example an intern is usually not legally required to be paid but some companies will offer salaries varying between AED 1,500 - AED 2,500, however LEGALLY you cannot pay an Emirati intern less than AED 10,000, a salary that most expatriates will never ever see in their lifetime living in Dubai. Emiratisation has been around for a long time but its being pushed a lot more recently as a lot of the Emirati population don't work as they don't NEED to work (everything is provided for them) hence they are a huge burden on the government. To counter this, the scheme is actively trying to push out non-national people from high-paying jobs to accommodate to their citizen's high standards as they will never work in low-paying starter jobs. Which is hilarious because the nationals that hold jobs never do any work, they simply delegate to their underlings who are usually under paid Indian and Pakistani people. Since expats need a job to survive in Dubai, I guess this scheme will continue to work but if you are someone with an undesirable skin colour and passport, you will most likely never see any job growth.

As a native from the emirates (not in Dubai) I can say that Dubai and Abu Dhabi are the only emirates with fancy buildings and shit. The lesser known emirates don’t have any of those buildings but I was kind of heartbroken of how people treat the whole UAE like that

Lived in Dubai from 1996 when few people knew the city. Dubai has always been a master of marketing itself and showing its glizzy side. and flying in tubers en masse makes it so much easier. Dubai really has 2 sides. Hiphopcracy is a good word.

Dad is White British. He use to work in around these different oil rich countries as a truck driver. It paid well but he hated every minute. He did get along with the family, but made he laugh when the company took a company holiday, and he saw them abuse every drug under the sun. He said a holiday to them was a holiday from religion. Shortly after he came back to work in the uk. His own words were, "he was safe because his government protected him" i.e the uk didnt allow shady shit to happen, while other countries look away. His friend who went out with him was sikh, and he was suprised the amount of racism he received. The uk embassy had to step in because when showing his passport to get though borders, they didnt believe it and thought to be migrant. The family of the company had to get him documents from the different countries to be signed for his own protection. Thats the fucky world if oil rich countries. Good wage if youre from the west.

Furthermore, BCG also constructed the track transit tunnel and baggage transit tunnel including all mechanical, electrical and drainage systems associated with the airside construction." for KLIA. they didn't build the whole thing

Saw a middle-aged Indian guy burst out in tears because he got scammed to work in Dubai. He doesn't have a passport since it was taken from him and he can't get deported due to his company holding him in. Paying $500 a month to live in a small shack with a 200-person shared porta-potty when he only earns around $250 a month, so he's in debt.

As a person who lived in dubai for 8 years, most of this is true. Also i find it so funny how in uae only dubai has a metro network and all other states just use the bus and the rest of the states aren’t half as developed as dubai. There are atleast 2-4 immigrant workers dying everyday in dubai due to its hectic work conditions. Its honestly so sad and the general public living in dubai aren’t aware of none of this hypocrisy happening here.

I live in Dubai and quite frankly i’d prefer living here to anywhere else. Food is generally cheaper and way higher in quality here no heavy taxes good and cheap healthcare lots and I mean lots of places to go for fun and I feel alot safer here compared to America. Sure it’s hot in the summer but every other time in the year the temperatures are great. We don’t have to deal with snow because of it. Additionally there’s alot of neighborhoods and areas which have a alot of greenery. Obviously there’s going to be slums and although there may be some malpractices behind the scenes which place doesn’t? You’re saying Dubai is the worst place to live because it isn’t perfect in every aspect. There’s a reason why Dubai is one of the happiest places in the world. Me personally, i’d rather have hot summers and silly infrastructure than terrible leaders heavy taxes and shit healthcare like you do.
