More Worker Riots In Dubai

Filed under: Estates

Last month, workers caused $1 million in damages at the Burj Dubai, now there has been another riot in Dubai. This time an AP story says that 2,500 foreign construction workers protested wages and working conditions at the Dubai Marina on Wednesday. The workers  for the Al-Ahmadiah Contracting company smashed vehicles and machinery at the site.  More than 80 workers, most of them from India, were later deported. The marina is the site of a wide variety of projects including the recently announced Dubai Marina Star.
