racism or reality?
Yes, many Westerners get paid at a higher salary than other nationalities in UAE. Fair? Maybe. 2 factors are at work here. 1) The quality of education tends to be higher in Western countries. Nothing racist in this statement – it is just a fact. Want a good education? Go to a Western University. 2) People from poorer countries accept lower salaries – that is an irrefutable fact. How do I know? I worked in a UAE government hospital for 5 years alongside various nationalities. It was run by Western staff and a Western company in the beginning and was top-notch. The UAE government then decided to take over it added many non-Western staff. Sorry to say but the quality and the level of corruption skyrocketed. Many Western staff left and the quality left with it. That is a fact. Nothing racist about my comments at all. Just the plain facts. If you want a better life/standards/salary then do away with corruption/racism, etc. in your own country. I hear many Indian nationals complaining here b
