The scandal surrounding FIFA corruption has focused fresh attention on migrant workers who have died building stadiums for the 2022 World Cup. This report reveals the shocking conditions endured by workers.
The lead up to the World Cup has been enshrouded in scandal at every turn. With reports that over 1200 have died in Qatar already, the reality of the World Cup for those building the stadiums is far from glamorous. "They live in squalor... They're owned by another individual, lock, stock and barrel - that's slavery", says Sharan Burrow, head of the International Trade Union Confederation. Burrow takes ABC on a tour of a hostel of Nepalese migrants, who work six days a week for 12 hours a day, with no paid overtime. "They just send you back when they decide you've finished", explains one worker. Under the Kafala system in Qatar, workers need permission from their employers before they can leave the country. "The workers here can be physically and verbally abused... they can be stuck in detention centres or they can be kicked back home", says Mustafa Qadri from Amnesty International. Even footballer Abdes Ouaddou was a victim of Kafala. After being hired to play in the Qatari league, he was denied an exit visa. Expressing his outrage, Abdes says: "How can such a prestigious, popular competition take place in a country that doesn't respect human rights or the law?"

I have lived I this country, and I have been jailed & deported from there in a ridiculous trial , and I have seen hundred of people deported without getting their salaries , and they are even beaten by police and forced to live the country without getting their rights . I can give my testimony for any organisation that can help these people to recover their rights or at least avoid it to others . This should called a world cup of slavery , which will be played on the thousand of workers who died in theses grounds . Of thousand of people who are jailed because of conflict with their sponsors . Thousands of workers who were forced to leave the country without getting their rights . International community should stand against this middle age country and show that they can not bribe and buy every voice which raise against them . Please help people who are stuck in that hell .
Agreed
You live in qatar?
Completely true
Hmm soo sad
Sad story i have ever heard in my entire life
Won't be attending, watching, or following the 2022 Qatar World Cup. I'll be boycotting any companies that align themselves with it, and I'd suggest anyone else who cares do the same and (more importantly) let the companies broadcasting and advertising know how you'll be voting with your wallet and tuning out. Punish FIFA and punish its corporate sponsors. This is EXACTLY the type of inhumanity we're told international sport combats, but obviously that's not happening here.
I applaud you. I’ll do the same thing
i won't do it lol
Adidas, Coca Cola, Hyundai, Visa, McDonalds, Hisense, Vivo, Budweiser...
Have fun with that
I am on the boycott team!
Brian Yatsuko not a problem boycotting ANY company that aligns with this disgraceful enterprise. Qatar are shameful in how they have acted here.
Yes. answered the question.
No. Answered the question
@@abin3071 when?
I won't be watching this wcup boycott the world cup
"We cannot accept to play in a stadium where people die...its made of blood.."....THATS CALL TRUTH..
Entire middle east from dubai to riyadh to doha was built by workers from south asian countries like pakistan, india, bangladesh, nepal and sri lanka. Countries where these workers are treated like disposible cups and plastic spoons.
These workers will be treated similar in Westen nations as well.
You should be a comedian
A Dusty desert, lack of oxygen, slavery, massive expenses, stupid rules, greed everywhere .. horrible place is the gulf
الاستاذ بشير ohh shut up
Yall stupid ass idiots lmao they will host fifa 2022 in qatar and yall dumbasses cant do nothin about that
Well other middle Eastern countries are no different. All middle Eastern countries should be banned from hosting such events. Fifa was insane to even nominate Qatar
thank u for the info sir
I think there is still time to change the venue
You know they actually have higher IQ’s than Americans so...
Four years later and the controversies surrounding Qatar and Fifa keep accumulating. Yet, nothing is being done. World Cup preparations are still going and not stopping.
And the world cup starts tomorrow....
Same way as how they built Dubai this ain't nothing new

this is so sad
Qatar the best place to hold the world n it will be amazing
I hope all those who talk big now don't end up there with their tickets.
Qatar is in no way a country that should be rewarded with the World Cup I hope Western European countries will boycott this circus or at least government officials boycott this minuscule kingdom.
Boycott it? They accepted the bribes to have the tournament hosted there. Them Europeans sure love those natural gas dollars.
Bwahahahahaha!
How did you think those “Western European” countries became as important for you to bother mentioning them distinctly?
More like..
They sure love their “dollars” as well as with bumper-offer of reliving their nostalgia, semi-racist "@@ahkcholee2895".
im from Nepal. This really upsets me. These people go to Qatar due to the unemployment problem here in Nepal but this work ("abuse") is something no one should face. They should get a raise and should get better treatment as well.
This isn't anything new. Everyone should know by now whether it's the olympics or the world cup, if it's coming to your town, it's not your town anymore.
s0nnyburnett
Thats some deep shit right there..very true & frightening
Yep. These big name global sporting events are usually covert operations for massive construction projects.
Unless they already have stadiums, like the U.S, Japan, Europe, etc.
s0nnyburnett wake up. Never has a country been this disgraceful to its foreign workers.
All muslim country is a he'll for eternity the reasons may be different.
the players have the power here. boycott and refuse to go and the tournament will fall. I couldnt agree will Bill Mason more.
Im currently in Qatar, we are living in hell here...8 in a room , we work for 12hrs a day without off..our salary is been cut off...Qatar is the most wicked country in the world..
Stay strong and healthy! Greetings from Germany
Yes they should be stripped of the world cup with out a doubt
links felix. Then all these people's suffering would be for nothing. The game of football shouldn't have to suffer because of some hurt feelings.
Sir Wallace of Bauer, Esq., DDS The stadiums could always be dismantled and moved to another country, one that's actually better than Qatar.
links felix your ass should be stripped of the World Cup
I say it again.. it is the foreign contractors that are abusing their own. There are only few Qataris, they can't guard all of those
@@Mike-jv9cl I really don't understand how Australia didn't get the World Cup 2022. This is a travesty.

Fuck FIFA for turning a blind eye on this, fine those fuckers including the top people 100% of what they earn from this cup. Fuck Qatar for abusing people and tolerating this kind of shit.

Thank you.👊
This is so sad, this people are literally giving up their lives and leaving their kids alone with no food just so you and I could watch a soccer tournament:(
madness
I am a professional Software developer from India, After watching this I relate worse phase of my 4 year career.
I was working on one project for construction company for maintaining their Inventory, where I was put under extreme pressure by qtari client and my once very friendly boss.
I couldn't handle it and quite my job.
I was blaming myself for what happened. But now I understand it was not my mistake. Luckily I was working from India and had easy option to quite. And now really enjoy all those criticism emails from qtari client.
This is perfect example of what happens when beggers get free money (gas, oil).
Yoo I now understand he wasn't wrong.
I was initially thinking it was wrong and then you blowed it up at last!
You frustration is clear when you called him beggar😂
No country gets free money! All nations are gifted with resources.
Please talk mature.
@@historyman3437 what a retarded comment. Khaliji Monkey, you have to try again.
It is "quit" & not "quite" !!
I would say not beggars. Plain thieves stealing wages sweat and blood of the migrant workers
Now try USA.
Well yeah, we want to watch football not piles of dead bodies.

There are loads of lies in this video and you did not show the beautiful side of Qatar you only show this side that they are working on the world will know soon that Qatar is a Paradise .
+Monzer Taha How can it be a paradise if the workers are treated like slaves. Qatar is not a paradise.
4 yrs since the video uploaded ..... No change
That's true
This is saddest news i've heard. It's a modern slavery..😢😢 so obvious & shame on u Qatar for having been so rich but couldnt tackle dis issue. 😔😔
No World cup for this country.
Rain Twomooms yes good answers

Ernesto Polo fuck off
Ernesto Polo We WONT what if people said something bout ur Fucking country Fuck U and ur Fucking dumbass brain
Lmao how do you just “dismantled and donate” a stadium to Africa. Also why would you “donate” it after spending billions on the stadiums
ProphecyGaming because they don't really care about football
That's so rediculous, how most people perceive Africa is just demeaning. Africa is a heaven on earth.
ProphecyGaming because they insulting us indirectly,keep u ur shit and respect human rights for workers.
They are not gonna donate the stadium they are gonna donate the money.
They are gonna donate the stadiums because qatar is a tiny country and doesn't have much a space and the stadiums take up too much space
All countries in the GCC do this kind of stuff especially Qatar, Kuwait, and the UAE.
3 years and still nothing changed..
world cup 2022 good bye ..from bangladesh ........

it's been freaking 2 years since this video was published... and nothing changed... and will not change... all pointless and useless...
sadly, money is far louder than anything else.
PLT LDR still no change brother
Do think they try, but the problem are the culture in the middle east, UAE and Saudi arabia are even worse. Things have got better, but only a little and surly not enough.
all about the money you get what you want and this is slavery
PLT LDR Platini got arrested
Sad to see FIFA do this, such a freaking shame
The real FIFA World Cup is 2014, after that is just cash milking
Recent report in the guardian says around 6500 workers died since qatar world cup declaration. Out of which around 80% died with 'natural cause' without autopsy. But failed to mention how 20-40 year old can die from heart attack.
I haven't missed a World Cup since 1986. I won't be watching next month, not one minute.
YES strip Qatar of World Cup and Crush the Arab Arrogance of diplomacy and Wealth...
as an indian ,almost 3000 to 4000 indians and people from other countries too died for fifa 2022 ,,,if fifa takes place on Qatar there will be lots of blood in the hands of fifa ,,,
"ka fala" in Kenya translates to; "stay stupid/ remain foolish"
That's just street language. Nothing national language so stop misguiding people who want to learn swahili.
Next video: Is Qatar a big prison?
JensBond93 is all Qatar people are brainwashed ????

Moni Poppaea Di Maria wtf can i go anywhere without getting reconised?
JensBond93 WILL FERRAL :) LOL sorry i wouldn tell nobody :)
JensBond93 My dick is a big prison
Qatar is the worst country ever wow. Fifa should basically say: If you dont pay 5 Thousand euros right now to all your workers, that they wont play the world cup in qatar
5000 euros? more like 50 thousand
Haan so north korea which is even worse is better than qatar. Qatar may not be good but it is not the worsy
You people just care about human rights and are jealous that your country will not host the World Cup 2022
BuyingOGNames that's exactly wat they're mad about
Said: they are not the worst ever, but one of the worst of our time. For instance are Saudi arabia and UAE no better if they are not worse.
"Well good luck guys"...
*Awkward Silence*
Grapee
Modern day slavery, this is disgusting!
How can you have control over another mans life like he's your pet and then sit there with no regret or guilt? You literally have that person's livelihood in your hands and you won't dismiss them due to your ego? FUCKING EVIL...
I will neither be watching world cup 2022 nor follow it..
How can u watch it knowing this brutal truth
I wish reports like this were made when the Europeans invaded Africa.
I agree... but that was 100 years ago .. and this is happening today 🙃
And what's the difference between “100 years ago” and now - except for what your enslavers ingrained in you and hence, now shaped your worldview to their looking - Mr @@benghazian?
@@maazkalim We can't stop or change what happened 100 years ago nor was there the same technology to be able to share/show what was happening. This is soothing we can actually try to stop and lives we could save.
@Panjet slayer ofc not
@Panjet slayer do you have a excuse for this?
qatar holds the 2022 title of: "slave driver of the year"
fifa holds the 2022 title of: "beneficiary to slave driver of the year"
They also hired thousands of North Korean workers that gets paid less that 300 dollars and are forced to scavenge for food from dumpsters near restaurants. When they found out, they started spraying the food with pesticides. These workers are hunted down when they run away.
I wouldn't go to this world cup even if they gave me free tickets
Edd - sure?
Eddie don’t worry they won’t
Who care?
The tickets were 2 separate games to watch Messi and Ronaldo play for their respective nations... It'd be a hard choice for me too.
@book marks they can't that's illegal
Yes South Africa is better then qatar
Albert Li SA does not enslave worked so no comparison
South Africa more horrible than qatar because of south Africa every day has kiled more people
how many did you kill?
Mr X You must have lost your way to the toilet. Maybe that’s why you shitting on the comments section.
Yeah
I LOVE playing soccer in the heat. I don't know why but when it's hot and humid, it hot and dry, breeze or no breeze; I can run and play forever. I have to drink a lot of water as I go, but I don't get cramps (unless the water is really cold). I can run and sweat and play. My body does not get sore, I don't get tired. It's like I draw energy directly from the sun. I should have moved to the middle East when I was a kid. Could be playing for an international team now. :D
Human Rights. United Nations where are you?
I'm suppose to go with my mates but I aint going no more! I'm telling this to them as well
you have a lot of moral strength
I swear this hurts my heart and soul.
One guy was cheering even b4 the old man released the decision
This is not only in Qatar, please.
It's disgusting that a human being can do this to another human being.SMFH
God please help our Nepalese brothers to get back to home..
This shows the dichotomy in a wealthy country they have the ruling class and the slave class. It’s abhorrent. These people deserve basic human rights.
We just need two countries national teams to boycott the world cup and it will be done first England and Germany with Brazil should dumped the FIFA world cup
It's true but happens not only in Qatar in happens all over middle East
Not in oman. We have strict rules and pay good respect to human rights
Nazmal Cruise not in Dubai , in Dubai they care on the works and they don’t have slavery, they give good food and take care of them, as well as they give them wages and more money
@@kingshj7073 u sure not in dubai?Not what i hv seen
Doesnt hapn in western countries?
It's called kafala
STRIP THEM OF THE WC
for those who didn't know and for journeyman, the situation is same all over the middle east and gulf, saudi arabia, oman, qatar, uae etc
You forget Duba.
@@Elias-fd4pb He said UAE
The government is doing alot of efforts but some individuals and companies don't comply with the rules set up by govt
FIFA talks about fair play & a zero tolerance for racism. Yet thousands of slave laborers have died to build their stadiums & buildings. All countries should boycott the World Cup. It’s time the top football countries, players stand up to FIFA & Qatar.
This has been going on so long, but it seems like people care now, so much empathy, I am touched!
Idonigbo Obu And this will continue just as it is and they will continue to report the atrocities just as it is and nothing will change ! All these world wide umbrella corporations cover each other.
What has not been mentioned is what countries all these companies come from. Just a guess but are all from Qatar, some how I doubt it!!!!
Idonigbo Obu
There is a world government they have their own rules they choose who gets what world cup, olympics, presidents etc. rulers of evil the whole earth
You know more than me, I am still learning!!!
Please re upload this video before WC starts to make everyone remember this
😢 sadly there is zero news about this in India.
Every country needs to boycott these games here!
Disgusted at FIFA for allowing this to carry on
Absolutely outrageous
Bribery and blood world cup
one of the best and true reporting journalism at best but can the venue get changed after finalising
tarun kumar I don’t think so ..
I think the only way to do it is if major countries refuse to participate and/or FIFA takes actions to do something
@Jay Something I have to say that the travel promoters are the first ones to blame. They are greedy, selfish and inhuman. Government now does help people stuck in such adverse conditions through embassies. But there is no way to check such influx.
I don't think it has ever been done before. Would be nice if they moved it to Morocco though...
@@bradkirsten6725 does Morocco have what it takes to host the world cup like Qatar
@@tochukwuononye2116 Well, it's certainly better equipped to host a world cup.
Sadly don’t think anything will be done about it,this is the type of thing that would be swept under the carpet if it wasn’t for social media.

Imagine a person controlling your life and holding your identity.
Qatar will loose all matches by 3 or more goals
They will be the first hosts to not get a point at a world cup.
They will get the easiest draw in history and still get humiliated
Hahaaa they will lose by 15 goals to nil
lol... good 1

Al-Qaeda, Taliban they all have office in Qatar. google it

I can make a page in Google and say there is terrorist bases on the moon
Those offices were requested for by the US government as they wanted an open point of contact with the Taliban, Al - Qaeda . (They have their largest overseas base in Qatar)

I've seen the "authorized everyday workers" tour video many times. All the other ones took place in North Korea, but this one was strikingly familiar...
My answer to your question....
ABSOLUTELY
No middle Eastern country deserves such contracts.
You are the cause of what we are experiencing the western nations stole all our resorces fair play you won but don't ever speak like we are the ones who wanted our countries to have such reputation
Y
Pretty simple. no team should take part in this. that would be the best.
In truth, these stories of safety breeches/negligence is synonymous with large scale construction running on tight deadlines. Considering everything else though, I think the noble decision FIFA needs to make is to grant the world cup to Australia/Morocco...both nations (Australia even more so) has infrastructures already in place that, when improved on will be as good as anything being built for the first time in that dust bowl.
It's Not Qatar's fault the companies get the money from the king and use them for themselves
If they cancelled it they could move it to North America in 22 and then find a new country to host in 26
Qatar is hell bruh!!
mfalme ke and so are you
Fuck off racist shit we are richer than ur bitch ass
Xtreme lolz I want to see this country becoming rich without their Oil this country was nothing until they didnt find oil
Black people can be racist
Islam is hell

Shu Sammoona he's not a king he's a p.m. you too are both wrong the Emirs are not to be blamed they re nice people it's the owners of the companies and labour camps that are to be blamed
Temperatures can hit as high as 122°F - 50.4C on a regular basis. It is mostly a dry heat, but Qatar does experience more humidity than other Middle Eastern countries.
People should pressure their country to not send its team to this world cup unless an evident change is made
this is same condition in every gulf countries whether saudi uae qatar or other gcc country...
cricketanalyzer nope, I can't say for Saudi or Bahrain but U.A.E is pretty cool in the summer AVG temp is 30 C
This is deplorable. These stadiums are built on blood for what is essentially just a tournament. Shame on you, Qatar!
Shamelessly cheap
All that glitter is not gold. Shameless people. Qatar and Fifa.
Holding the WC over there is ridiculous on every level you can think of, that much is obvious. Let's just hope the recent scandals will prevent the injection of more undeserved cash to the armpit of the world. As if all that oil money isn't bad enough!
Donated to Africa. Do we look like we lack resources
Make a good thing with your resources... that is impossible
Yes
Enslaved the poor workers and yet the world is watching!
YES! Strip them of it. And what about those FIFA officials who accepted bribes to award the FIFA games to Qatar?
What thieves?! Despicable!!!
yes of course
Corruption within FIFA allowed this to happen. And the world protests but still we all go to Qatar. It's all about the money.
This will pass to history as the greatest foil in sports.
Won’t even watch that 2022 nonsense they’ll be hosting.
It’ll be an embarrassment of an event. The numbers will be so mediocre, it’ll be a genuine disgrace.
Thank god I live in the West like a human being. I feel sorry for these workers being exploited.
This just ain't right bring world cup to Europe
Or bring it to Northern America like Mexico or the U.S
Senpai UwU the 2026 world cup is gonna be in america, mexico, and canada
