That’s a good point.
I think ive read about the slave labor they’re using!
Apparently they take/hold the passports of the imported workers
I’ve heard of that. It is kind of cruel if they do it. They import laborers from places like the Philippines and put them under contract. They get to send money back home - supposedly. But it’s hard work doing construction in the desert, their housing is probably low end and maybe they live in camps.
I do know some entertainment people who get hired to work for a few weeks or months at a time. They work for the rich, work various events, are put in nicer housing (nice enough anyway) and come from western countries so they may get treated better. And I’ve also heard some people go willingly basically for sex work, like a rent a girlfriend. Unofficially of course because prostitution is illegal. So they go with an understanding. They are paid to be companions or cleaning crew or nannies or to teach a foreign language etc, but with an expectation that sex is part of the gig.
