And here's our socialist lying demonic fraud right on queue... Unpaid workers are a minority in this country. It does happen, and it's wrong, but it is not the rule, it's the exception.

THen there is the issue of unregulated banks acting as money launderers for the international drug cartels in Southeast Asia....hmmm how much of that growth comes from that I wonder!

Drug money is being laundered in practically every country on the face of the earth.

current situation: the United Arab Emirates is a destination country for men, women, and children trafficked from South and East Asia, Eastern Europe, Africa, and the Middle East for involuntary servitude and for sexual exploitation; an estimated 10,000 women from sub-Saharan Africa, Eastern Europe, South and East Asia, Iraq, Iran, and Morocco may be victims of sex trafficking in the UAE;

Women used for sexual slavery, although a terrible and abhorrent practice, has no bearing on the economic figures. And thousands of women are "trafficked" in many other countries as well. It's not just the UAE.
Quote:
the UAE is a drug transshipment point for traffickers given its proximity to Southwest Asian drug-producing countries; the UAE's position as a major financial center makes it vulnerable to money laundering; anti-money-laundering controls improving, but informal banking remains unregulated

Ah, so your source is a government agency, AN AGENCY WHICH RELIES ON TAX MONEY FOR ITS EXISTENCE, so now you have a problem called CONFLICT OF INTEREST in their criticism of a country with no income or business taxes and very low overall taxes.
Also, the CIA has killed over 6 million people. Not exactly poster boys for criticizing others for lack of morality:
CIA Murder - over 6 million people killed

How big an issue is slavery? Lets look at housemaids. It is estimated that 300000 work in Dubai which accounts for 20% of the workforce....
|
300,000 housemaids in a population of 700,000 to 1,000,000 people? So a third of all workers are housemaids? ROTFLMAO Yeah, right... Let's see your source for that one. The CIA again, right? LOL.

so no wages, prostituted, abused and if the complain killed or deported....hmmm once again one has to wonder how much of that 16% comes from the use of slaves rather then paid workers.

A very small percentage.
