  • Doha, September 20, 2013<br />
<br />
Zahir Belounis is a French professional footballer currently trapped in Qatar under its controversial labour laws.<br />
<br />
The 33-year-old has not been allowed back to France since June 2012 because he has been embroiled in a legal dispute with his former club al-Jaish, who play in the Qatar Stars League, over two years' unpaid wages.<br />
<br />
Under the Kafala system that ties employees to their sponsors, migrant workers cannot leave the Gulf state unless their employer agrees and Belounis has been left in limbo in Doha with his wife and two daughters. <br />
<br />
They are staying in an half-emply house, as most of his furniture was sold when he got word in that a solution is close. But no progress has been made since then. In November 2013, Belounis has written an impassioned plea to the former 2022 World Cup ambassadors Zinedine Zidane and Pep Guardiola asking them to intervene on his behalf, published by The Guardian newspaper.<br />
<br />
Belounis is shown here at the Doha corniche, with traditional boats (dhows) and the modern skyline in the background.

<br />
Zahir Belounis is a French professional footballer currently trapped in Qatar under its controversial labour laws.<br />
<br />
The 33-year-old has not been allowed back to France since June 2012 because he has been embroiled in a legal dispute with his former club al-Jaish, who play in the Qatar Stars League, over two years' unpaid wages.<br />
<br />
Under the Kafala system that ties employees to their sponsors, migrant workers cannot leave the Gulf state unless their employer agrees and Belounis has been left in limbo in Doha with his wife and two daughters. <br />

  • The Dubai World Cup, the final event of a racing season that run from November till March, is the top sport and society event in Dubai. With prize-money of $US21.25 million it is the highest-paid racing event in the world - anything else would have been a major surprise in this city of superlatives. And yet, it is one of the most democratic international sport events that one can attend. While most of the westerners simply want to have a good party (and to get drunk), the ruler's focus is exclusively on the outcome of the races. Large sections of the  crowd- many of them from the Subcontinent and from Africa- simply enjoy a good day out with friends or family. Racegoers are filling their champagne glasses.
