Last night we spoke about an issue that is near and dear to many.
LABOUR.
What happens when you try to raise awareness?
A group of people did just that, try to raise awareness about labour issues by making an awareness campaign for students.
Part of the campaign was a video of interviews with people at labour camps.
All the permission to film was obtained!
The 8 minute documentary is shot and edited and employees are penalised for participation!
IMAGINE!
What would you do?
James Piecowye took over Nightline in October 2006 until it was canceled in June 2018. The cast and crew of Nightline decided to keep the show going and this is where James posts the notes.

sharjha, school bus, discipline
Well last night was one of those nights when you wish there was more time in the show.
We talked about an incident that took place in Sharjha.
Give it a read!
TODAY!
Some said that the bus driver, the school, the families are responsible NOT the man who pulled the bus over.
Others said that this is the start of vigulantiism...
Hmmmm...
Listen to the JAMESCAST for a taste of what people are thinking.

censorship in the United Arab Emirates
So, who should control what we see, hear, read... use via the media?
Good question.
YOU maybe.
The state maybe.
A combination of the two maybe.
There is no debate that there is no clear answer to this question and when you mix in a huge population mix like the seen in the UAE the question becomes even more muddled.
Should AL ZAWRAA broadcast on NILESAT? Assassinations live? Hmmmm...
What is good content?
What is acceptable content?
How do we educate ourselves?

RENT and food...
Dubai, Dubai, Dubai!
So for January 7th we spent the evening talking about what we can possibly do with respect to rental agreements and the new landscape with respect to property occupancy in Dubai.
So what are people saying?
GROW UP THIS IS THE REAL WORLD people will get evicted, rent will go up and if the fire is too hot get out of the oven!
Others are saying that there needs to be some consistency.
The models used around the world are based on those world experiences and because of the expatriate population here the model needs to be different.
In the end the debate goes on...
