Yes, it is a real shame. Im glad Im not one of these guys

when i was there quite a few of the ex construction workers who were now taxi drivers were telling us about it, people need to stand up and do something about it, yeah right like that will ever happen

Sonapur is my second home. You can get a cracking chicken biriyani there for just 4Dhs!

you should direct this effort to show the globale companies slaving your kids for less than half a dollers in asia or at least stop supporting thoses companies when buying their products made by your kids man.
beside who do you think cares here anymore ? as long as they are having a job and getting paid, having a car and shopping, every one is quite and happy.

Really? S'funny that the 85% of the population they are talking about here, can't afford a car or go shopping. Some are lucky if they get paid and, even when they do, the sharks and vultures have had their cut before they get it.
The fact that you are posting here means you have a computer and know how to use it, so you are the privileged class they stare at with deep hatred in their eyes from the barred windows of the non airconditioned buses that ferry them from their slavery back to the concentration camp.
Try going to one of these places or having to live like one of them. It would change you attitude bloody quick!

I'm talking about you guys when I said that you don't care not the workers he is talking about , you guys don't care a bit , you know it and I know it, all you guys do isbla bla bla.

Really?

Wanna come down to my free soup kitchen at Heritage Village on friday nights? Sponsored by Al Futtaim and handing out over 2000 meals a night. Alternately you could become a volunteer for my friends charity, like me, and collect clothing from around town. You are hardly one of the disenfranchised yourself.

Lets see how you fare when you are at the sharp end...the colour of poverty is brown.

You believe what they print in the paper? Its not the truth!

There will be no change, it does not suit the people with the money, who own the newspapers.



Knight

Did you ever notice how there are never any stories in the paper criticizing the government over here?

Hmm....

Why would they criticise themselves?

It saddens me to read and hear all this things. I thought SONAPUR is a place like Al Quasais and Deira but now I knew this issue I look pity on this people.

Btw Black Knight, you have mentioned here that you are into this Charity works. Do you mind mentioning about them just few details. Maybe I can give a helping hand in here.

There are loads of charity participation options out there. PM me and I will give you a list of the best ones.

Personally, I am involved with K9 friends, Clothes for Africa, Foresight, The UAE Genetic Diseases Association and Downs Syndrome Society and Feed the Needy.
