Bird in hand worth two in the bush!
by human on Dec 04, 2007 12:51 PM

It is unfortunate to see Indians in trouble with middle east %u2026 though these illegal migrants have no right to overstay there and so facing the problem, there are other set of legal migrants working as labour there for peanuts. Since they protested for exploitation, they were punished%u2026lashes/deportation/arrests what not! Why not the govt of India take a stance on this though informally with the gulf state and try to resolve the issue of under payment for the labour. Gulf boasts of great hotels/resorts/malls but none knows the pain these labourers would have undergone to build them for arabs only to be sucked of their flesh and left for nothing good. These people should realize that they can earn atleast 100/- per day in India as construction labour and there is no dearth of work in real estate,
than aiming for quick bucks which they never be allowed to make in arab soil. A bird in hand is worth two in the bush! People like KCR/Naidu who start their day by lambasting AP govt should do something good to these people for their rehabilitation, from their party funds / personal funds and show the world they really care and not just there for votes
