	Dubai drydocks is a very wealthy company. They hire many people from around the world. 3rd world countries are there specialty. They pay by race and make them work in very harsh conditions. Indians and Philapeanos make up most of the work force.They work 16 or more hours a day in very high tempratures. whom ever is in charge of this place is making a big profit. I worked along side these people for a while and its so sad to see there condtions, especially when you see the higher ups driving cars and wearing nice cloths. The workers are forced to ride bad bikes around, back and forth to work. There homes, apartments they live in are cramped, no AC and they are not allowed to cook. I can go on and on. God Bless the people in charge , people who work there and there family's who never get to see there husbands and brothers.
