I saw that. Very rare to have riots of that sort here. You can bet the company owners or the employees are going to end up in big big doo doo. Here's the local version.... gulfnews.com Reading some of the article you posted shows the different biases of the writers.... The violence....illustrated the growing unrest among foreign workers "Growing" unrest? Many of the workers I know here are constantly going out of there way to get their friends and family members here. Hmmm, on reading the rest I guess its pretty accurate. But workers complain their employers often withhold pay. They enjoy few legal protections and no minimum wage, work in the extreme heat, and many of them live in military-style desert camps. That's spot on! Read the local version linked above, the worker's complaints are 100% legitimate. Witholding wages, overtime without pay, etc. etc. are extremely common. What's a worker to do?
