Emirates campaign highlights 'lucky' labourer

You are also fairly ignorant. How long have you stayed in the UAE? Do you really think that all construction labourers are Indians? Have you not met a single Indian here who has "the looks, the brains and the cash, that would represent Dubai in a much better way than a labourer?" Shame on you and the rest of your kind who share your sentiments.

To Duretger: If you step out of your ivory tower, you may observe that the global economy is not driven by only rich or good looking people but by ALL people that contribute to the economy by working, earning and spending. Anyway, for a person who cannot even type three lines without spelling mistakes (you couldn't even spell "poor" properly!!) this logic must be far beyond your comprehension anyway. To Antoine who agrees with Duretger: If Indians spoil Dubai's image, why attract them at all in the first place? If airlines were to choose customers based on looks, brains and cash as you seem to advise/imply, they wouldn't operate very long, would they? I'm not aware of your looks or cash but you surely seem to have lost your brains somewhere. Let me guess, you must be in management!!

This email is a gentle response to Jason' and not so intelligent focus and response , however not an attempt to riducle and embarass any one even if you totally deserve it. Dear Jason , very rightly said that the barbarian and the medieval thought has governed society over may centuries as you put it however there are rare human being wh dont fit your class of medicrity i.e floating with the crowd like sheep and hence raise their voice in an effort to sahre , spread and raise human conciousness to higher realms so concepts like the class dont overide and control the salve mind. As far as crying is concerned, it is not limited to the female gender, it is a fantastic release that is natural and vast however my note was not a cry but a echoing drum beat that may cause medicority to deafen and perhaps out of that silence consider the path of selflessness , onesness and contribution, you should pack up you bags, cry a little it may help and leave this post to begin with. To evryone else , my sincereapologies for writing this way however it is an opporutnity to highlight the root cause of problems like these where medicre human conditioning like the belif and acceptance of concepts like the class are ignorantly lived . This article is an opportunity to share opinions that add value to to the entire humanity to experience change and for countires and cities like Dubai to ride the learning curve and authentically respond to changing times and expanding consciousness most appropriatelty.

Duretger, first of all, you need to understand that poor or rich - all are humab being. Yo may we wealthy & goodlooking than Sudhakar, but you can never smile like Sudhakar...his smile is from his heart, where as your heart is ugly, filthy & stinking and they cannot put people like you in the ad. And why only Arabs & Europeans ? What about Americans, Australasians, Africans, East Asians etc..?

I agree with Duretger. Showing a person from a community that is knows for mainly negative reasons won't help Dubai. There are plenty of successful Arabs and Europeans, who have the looks, the brains and the cash, that would represent Dubai in a much better way than a laborer, who with all due respect, has absolutely nothing in comparison. Emirates can surely find better ways to attract Indians, without spoiling Dubai's image.
