  1. As with every story their are always 3 sides to it, with this one there is the story of the migrant workers, the story of Amnesty International and the third story is the truth. In my opinion the way migrant workers are being treated in the Kafala system does need drastically reforming on a human rights issue but we are probably getting only one part of the story, equally Amnesty International are giving their version and both may be way out of context picking on areas that a story can be constructed about. But then there is the reality and what do we do about it or more importantly what can Governments do about it, they can enforce pressure on contractors to honor agreements and contracts with workers to live the life that they have worked for not only for themselves but for their families, but this will need monitoring by a third party, whatever happens it will not happen overnight but the sooner the better for all concerned..
