UAE Built It's Economy Using Indian, Pakistani and Bengali Slave Labour

Are you serious?

It's in the associated press report I posted above...I've put some of the parts in bold, to make it easier to find...although i'd recommend reading the article thoroughly.

I thought this was common knowledge, but I guess the ABC/CNN/FOX news nexus don't tell you as much as maybe they should.
 
hahah what joke, prove it. USA take these matter very seriously. Specially child labor. :lol:

What more proof do you need, than research by the Associated Press, the article that I pasted above?

Unless you expect me to personally go to new mexico, texas, etc. to take pictures of these hapless children?
 
HAHAHAHHA Darkstar, your posts here are reminiscent of a bad propaganda pamphlet assembled through cut and paste jobs from selective google searches.

And yes, uninsured patients can, and most of them do get the state of the art care through charity; also the standard of care is enforced throughout the nation with no exceptions. I assure you, I know at least a little bit about the US medical system to attest to this fact. Is it perfect? Heck no, not even close, are there serious problems with seeking, obtaining or practicing healthcare? There sure are... but guess what, the overall facilities and opportunities available to a resident of the USA are far better than anywhere else in the world.

Also thank you for bolding the pertinent parts of the article; my question however was in regards to your never having heard about 4 year olds put to work in those other places; and I'm compelled to reiterate my question ... are you serious? Do you have any idea what happens to children in most parts of the developing world and in some cases even the developed ones?

Lastly, the names of all the children in that article and the places they were found allude to certain cultural heritages and labor patterns. Kindly investigate and see what happens to the children of the similar socioeconomic class who still reside in the countries of their origin (or that of their parents) who may or may not have come to the US legally; and if these children were born in the US, presumably to extremely poor parents, please guess as to where they sought the necessary OB/GYN care and how much they paid for it.
 
Energon, my arguments and views were nto a cut and paste job..I had to search for proof of what i've read and heard for many years, as my word would have meant nothign to you...

However, I was sure that you would away the child labour issue.

You're comparing the developing world, to the worlds Richest Nation? Surely, if harsh child labour is non existent in Western European countries, it wouldn't be too much to expect the same of the world's richest nation.

And as for you claim that "the overall facilities and opportunities available to a resident of the USA are far better than anywhere else in the world", this is laughalbe. As if you've done a comparative study of health systems of the world. This is the arrogant perception of many Americans, that everything in America and about America is 'the best'.

This is propoganda, and God knows what situation with those people sleeping like packed sardines really is.

Slavery in America...visit the southern states, where mexican families, including children, are working on farms, being paid a pittance, and too afraid of their illegal status to do anything to improve their lot, and follow the 'American Dream".

Mate in this thread the focus is on South Asian citizens who've had their rights and passport stripped away and are forced to live a life of peril and abuse, these are Pakistani's mate, let's worry about our own and speak out for them instead of illegal Mexicans, they are not our concern and I could care less about their situation when fellow "Muslims" are treating my people among others like dirt in the middle east.
 
Of course, the rich have always ill treated the poor...happens in Pakistan too. But like I said earlier, there is a specific agenda at play here...

No agenda, everything speaks for itself. It may happen in Pakistan, but Pakistani's exploiting other Pakistani's shouldn't give others the go ahead to abuse Pakistanis too. That should go for Indians Bangalis and Lankans.

What I would like to see happen is massive pressure on our own governments to improve conditions for the lower classes so that outside sinister forces stop exploiting our people for their own benefit. What has UAE ever done for Pakistan?
 
this is good post Kharian Beast. this has often been in media in uk. its realy a shame ppl go there to find a better life style and look wat they end up with. but then wat better will they get in pakistan for unskilled labour work?

This is not a go ahead for the government of UAE to treat people like slaves. Pressure should also be put on GoP to give these people work and fix the messed up economy, there is no caste system in Pakistan so there shouldn't be that many hurdles. Otherwise people will continue being recruited by the number 1 employer of unskilled workers in Pakistan at the moment...Taliban.

LOL, why would you assume that I haven't? I'd even go so far as to venture a guess that I've spent more man hours slaving away in the US medical establishment than most people on this forum.

I could sit here and write chapters about why your argument (by no means an original one) is fallacious, but that would be a waste of my time; and many smarter, more articulate and more experienced people have already addressed this issue.

BTW, medical tourism in certain third world nations (India probably being one of the more prominent ones) thrives primarily on the backs of Western Europeans and Canadians who have nationalized health care schemes. Also most of the cutting edge technology, drugs, devices and evidence based clinical science implemented in Europe and other parts of the developed (and developing) world come from American institutions which overwhelmingly out number, out produce and out perform everyone else on the planet.

Don't get me wrong, I have a great respect for scientists and practitioners from other parts of the world, especially Europe and Asia. But even by their admission (and I hold that in higher regard than anything else) the US system as a whole is superior; which is what made them come here in the first place.

Selective examples in manipulated contexts to "prove" something is for the most part a wasted effort; as are issuing poorly constructed propaganda statements against the US while directly mooching off its benefits (a European pastime). Comprehensively we are better off, and will probably remain that way for the foreseeable future.

Lastly, if you're under the impression that Western Europe or other parts of the developed world are free of child abuse of any kind, including labor and trade problems then I suggest you look a bit deeper into the issue; and not just through google searches.

Nothing at all, except that UAE pakistanis remit the most foreign exchange of any foreign pakistani population, and the UAE has been very generous to Pakistan with its oil and money in the past, apart from funding many institutions, like Hospitals, Medical colleges, universities, programmes to eliminate poverty, development projects, etc.

The late Sheikh Zayed was a great benefactor and lover of Pakistan. Go search the internet if you're unaware of this.
 
This is as true as it gets the arabs have done nothing on there own other then claiming on the there natural resources ! they are wat they are cuz of people like us !
 
Hahah .. as I was reading this my I remembered I opened the door today to a 4 year old street sweeper in the morning.. I wonder how much he makes.. $7.25 an hour? or year? any less than that would be heart wrenching.
