Thirty years ago, Dubai, the second largest city in the United Arab Emirates, was a small fishing port. Now, it’s one of the fastest growing cities in the world, largely driven by a construction industry reliant on low-paid South Asia workers. The decline of the dollar has impacted the workers earnings, since the Emirati dirham is pegged to the U.S. dollar. Copyright Simba Russeau.
