The True Cost Of The Qatar 2022 World Cup | True Cost | Business Insider
The irony is they can afford to pay 270 million to David Beckham but not compensation to those poor workers
imagine if they paid it to someone who actually won something; that would be triple...
never liked the kunt.
How many lives was taken to build the Piramides🤡😎
because Benzema and Beckham are the true heores stupid!
All rich people have one color.Selfish,greedy and heartless.
My teacher used to work as an engineer in a very big firm that worked mainly in Qatar. When asked why he left, he said, "Poor working rights. They get a building done in a day, but the amount of people that die and the amount of families I had to call saying that their family member had died. Was outrageous."
nice joke as-sho-le. why would a teacher work in a construction site stu-pid.

This is FIFA biggest mistake
Everyone watched in awe the queen’s funeral full of pomp and glamour - nobody asked how much of taxpayer money was wasted on it while children die on hospitals for lack of emergency beds and elders freeze in their homes as can’t afford heating. The west is just virtue-signalling as usual because they want to hold everyone else down.
My dad was a victim of this kafala system in the UAE as a private driver for an Emarati family in 2008. His sponsor (an individual who happened to be an airport official) kept his passport and one fine day just cancelled his visa without any notice. He had 30 days to pack up and leave after living 30 years in the country. The worst part is the sponsor wouldn't give him his passport - he was handed the passport at the airport during departure and we realised later that he was placed on a permanent ban to not being able to re-enter the country again. I was left heartbroken and not sure how my father felt as he always hid his emotions and never opened up about it. I went to the local immigration office to find out the reason behind the ban and if it could be lifted but was told that the only way to lift the ban was by the sponsor. It almost felt like they knew what had happened but seemed like they couldn't do much about it. A country where I was born and raised, it felt like I had no place there although I speak local Emarati Arabic including reading and writing and also know the culture and traditions well. This left a permanent mark in my heart for which reason I left the country in 2016, never to set foot in it again.
The entire gulf region behaves in a similar way with slight variations, some better or worse than others. In my experience, the people of Oman and Bahrain are more real in the sense they do not look down on people from those migrant nations.

@@joelgaralde3514 Nobody wants this kind of story I guess and sure, the empire used slavery of hundreds of years (ago) but I mean, shouldn't we learn something from those years and choose not to repeat the story?
You're entitled to your opinion of course.
The saddest thing is that no matter how many of these reports come to light, how many symbolic protests the teams make that in the end they only take advantage of the issue because if they really wanted to protest they would do things like not attend but of course that is unthinkable, that for the next World Cup/Olympics a similar story will repeat itself.
Instead of paying Beckham, pay the workers families that died or the workers that got injured. Pay them all that money. Beckham doesn't need shit!!

The problem is seeing human right organisations using their platforms for political reasons... human right abuses in europe are unbelievable yet none of these organisations talk about it... when contacted about human right abuses in European countries.. their response was " we don't have the capacity and resources to deal with this "".. somehow they have resources to travel to Asia to exploit workers for interviews...
@@boohere2 how do you know they weren't paid?
The majority of fans and corporate interests did not, in fact, really care about the human cost of the World Cup. If they had cared, there would have been a massive boycott.
I’m from Bangladesh and thousands of people who are struggling go to Qatar hoping to feed their family. They are forced to work under harsh weather without any safety gears. Many people fall to death while working these jobs, many people are abused by the contractor who has their passport and threatening them of calling the police and getting them locked up. And the worst part is they barely make 10$ a day because the contractor who gets the payment for the employees takes majority of the money. I had a family member who was sent home in a casket after they used his money to book the flight home. The tragedy of these workers are endless
the contractor will treat workers as they please because they know the world will blindly blame qatar rather than them

This is the best video by business insider, indeed an eye opener🙏🏻👌🏻hats off to the team🙏🏻
"fans don't want to sit in a stadium that workers died to build". I wouldn't be so sure about that, we're talking about die hard football fans here. I'm pretty sure most of them are more worried about whether or not it's going to be difficult to buy beer. The teams are quite clearly prepared to play in these stadiums that workers died to build, shouldn't they be leading by example?
Completely agree - once they’ve paid the $1500 for the ticket to the game, $800 airfare they’re not gonna give a cr*p who built the stadium. The woman in the clip has clearly not met football fans …
I wouldn’t say the teams. Its more about the Football federations and it’s leaders being involved that has forced the players to accept it, because if someone refuses, they would juts take someone else and the factor that is every 4 years weights in their decision to opt in and represent their countries. I am pretty sure, if it was a league or UCL match, this wouldn’t be happening, but FIFA are making bank from this and using that money to control the other Football nations with heavy incentives
We can teach you how you can earn up to $3000 In 3days on trading, on crypto trading only if you are serious and interested ask me how
And all that money to watch a bunch of players run around and pretend to fall over...and if it's a draw, hooligans riot. What a joke
Yeah, people still enjoy the great wall of China no matter how that wonders was build.
Congratulations Qatar and FIFA you'll be happy and celebrating your success but the people who lost their Lives and their poor family will never be happy again 🥺

1. Qatar is not allowing Israelies to participate under Israel
2. Israel is not apartheid, many Arabs live in Israel, I bet you've never set foot there. They have their own political party in the Israeli parliment. In addition, there is an Arab-Israeli on the Israeli team!! How is that apartheid?
Now look at Arab nations. You can't be a Jew there. My family was kicked out of Iraq and Iran for being Jewish.
@Mohibullah Khan no, Israel comes up as 'occupied Palestine territories'
And are you just gonna ignore what I said earlier? Arabs Israelies have as many rights as Israelies do. There is a literal arab on the Israeli world cup team. Your the one in a fantasy world.

I worked for a very reputable civil engineering & construction company in the UK, long since gone but only this weekend I was reminded of two similar occasions in the early 1970's where they had employees driving to work in the morning & were involved in fatal road traffic accidents, one of them involving the death of three employees...
What's this go to do with Qatar....? Well, for many, many years afterwards, the company remained in contact with the deceased workers' families, particularly at Christmas time. They were never forgotten. It was highly appreciated by the families & here it is still remembered 50 years later.
& this is the long-standing problem in Qatar. A lack of compassion, decency & quality in the companies, starting at the very top with the local owners/partners & filtering down thru' their Arabic management. The continual desire to save money, especially on workers' accommodation, food, & site conditions for workers.
It's too late now, the thousands of workers who have died, the locals who have got rich from accessing all the World Cup money, the Arabic management who have all skimmed-off money from suppliers involved in ANY & EVERY transaction, & the workers who've barely been able to improve their lives in most instances.
I'm east-european, and when i went to college (in my home country) i had a friend who would work summers picking fruit/veggies in the UK (early 2000's).
The pay was good for him, and i thought for a while that i missed out on it, but he did tell me some interesting things.
One of them was that he lived in the middle of nowhere on a farm, in squalid conditions, so bad that one of the other workers contracted pneumonia and died with the farmer doing nothing about it, refused to take him to hospital, i'm guessing so he would not be reported for it.
He was friends with the local party (take a guess which one, rural area, farmers ...), local law and courts.
There was no investigation, nothing.
I don't know if he was buried there or not, but my friend never returned to the UK, he had a rather unkind view of the whole thing.
So human trafficking and human abuses do in fact happen in the UK too, and under both labour and tories they look the other way.
PS: It happens in Spain, Netherlands and Italy too, there there are other dangers.
I didn't write this to humiliate you, just food for thought ... it happens in the best of places.
@@Milo-id9qd it is all about the money now
@@Milo-id9qd why do you think people support Brexit in regards to immigration? The reason citizens won’t do such jobs is because it is exploitation and the EU migration allowed this to continue, same goes for car washes and other industries that had a heavy use of EU workers. The argument that we need these workers is foolish as it serves as an excuse to let employers offer poor working conditions. Furthermore, companies often wouldn’t increase pay as they know foreign workers would deem it acceptable, even in reputable unskilled jobs but alas you see that it’s no longer being tolerated due to the more limited work force. Overall it’s going to lead to major improvements. The issue will remain though somewhat due to illegal immigration and other forms of exploitation by communities through visas etc like we see in Qatar etc. Thankfully the authorities aren’t engaged in a cover up though once it gets uncovered by the police. All in all, you can’t pretend to care about workers rights unless you believe in tough and secure measures when it comes to immigration to begin with.

My deepest condolences goes out to all the families and people personally affected by such conditions.

Best video
This is the first video I've shared as it sums up the Qatar situation so well. I have been a football / soccer fan for over 40 years but won't be watching this horror of a tournament.
cantona said the same
Don't watch then. No one cares

dont watch it and continue your life in lala land
lol what a stupid way to look at it, workers die everywhere it isnt just in qatar lol
Thank you business insider for exposing this, if only there we're more!
I like how this lady said fans would not want to be in a stadium, when every game was full of energy regardless of how it was built lol
In Qatar, government projects are awarded to big contractors - mostly managed by foreigners. They hire workers from overseas through agents in south East Asian countries. The agency takes fees from the companies/contractors. As a result Contractors expect the workers to not work elsewhere once the workers arrive in Qatar.
The government cannot control every single recruitment happening in the private sector - which is run by foreigners themselves.
For decades, workers have been coming to Qatar from south east Asia willingly (nobody forces them on planes). The workers knows that conditions in their countries (and in Europe) are worse than in Qatar.
If the Europeans are sincere about those south East Asians, then they should hire them in Europe.
First of all, they are South Asians, not South East Asians. Second, Qatar has absolutely the means to have an independent organization looking into these companies to be sure if workers are treated right. They allow it because their whole society is based on slave/migrant labor. Lazy and greedy asshoIes.
Bro how true you’re ! Nicely done 🎉
Thank you Insider for bringing attention to this. They are doing far worse things than what you uncovered. Keep up the good work.
Hi Raymond. If you can, share some of those things here.
I don’t know why I am convinced that you’re lying.
@@myt613 He is not, Instead of writing a long essay it's better if you see other CZcams documentaries. Do you know between 2014 to 2018 more than 10,000 Indian workers in Dubai died each day, the trend is similar in Qatar.
@@gametabulas abd yet no one is yelling "boycott Dubai"
@@lenawagenfuehr53 It's a dead City, No one stays there for long. Maybe some low self-esteem muslim immigrants who feel like 2nd class muslims. Most people travel there to do cheap shopping because of low taxes. Do you know the great pride of Dubai i.e. Bhurj Khalifa doesn't even have a sewage system, they had to pump sh*t out using trucks. The whole Dubai is just a showoff city with no soul. Even their palm Island which was built on the coral reefs is sinking. No one is boycotting because no one cares, most people just go there to get petrodollars and buy stuffs.
The Stadium looks like an arc I must say.
the 2022 world cup has ended yes and The USA Canada and Mexico has the 2026 bid, but after watching this and reading reports about it about the system qatar has there? i honestly feel sad and guilty for watching the whole tournament, after knowing that it took over 2,000 workers to build these stadiums and alot of them died. RIP to all the workers who died
All sacrifices made by brave Nepalese is undeniable and priceless.
South Asians get treated horribly, even if they share the same faith with Qataris, it's actually horrible to see.
@@irippiri2847
Why are you blaming all Qataris
It is the private companies behind this
@@haneef4189 Where on Earth did I say all Qataris.
@@irippiri2847
You did not have to say it to think it
The irony is that millions of people will still attend the competition 😢😢😢😢😢😢
R.I.P those poor workers that their only wish was find new possibility for theirs families may God have them in heaven 🙏🏼
Well , it's a very peaceful community you know down there... Very peaceful
The awarding of hosting privileges should be a circuit as opposed to a bid. this will give countries enough time to prepare as well as include all countries and regions in a manner that resonates with the spirit of the game. Bidding only sidelines some of the best countries that are willing to host a truly humane event devoid of human rights violations but are limited by their inability to have a resource pool at a moment's notice they can draw from in the few years of preparation provided by FIFA. A circuit of willing hosts would tackle this issue.
Then you obviously never saw the UK's bid for this world cup. It was embarrassingly amateur. They sent over the PM who called for the Brexit referendum, Beckham and Prince William who basically had no show or notes - they thought it was going to be handed to them so they didn't even bother asking. It didn't go to Qatar because of bribery, it didn't go to the UK because of colossal arrogance
@Hello basically a cycle where each country has a turn.
The most important thing that should be on everyone mind currently should be to invest in different sources of income that doesn't depend on the government. Especially with the current economic crisis around the word. This is still a good time to invest in various stocks, Gold, silver and digital currencies.
I agree with you and I believe that the secret to financial stability is having the right investment ideas to enable you earn more money, I don’t know who agrees with me but either way I recommend either real estate or bitcoin and stocks.
I keep wondering how people earn money in financial markets, i tried trading bitcoin on my own made a huge loss and now I'm scared of investing more.
@@macherie9554 That won't bother you if you trade with a professional like *Mr Gary Mason Brooks* my coach, you may have come across him on interviews relating to bitcoin. He trades, manage trading account and offer mentorship program for clients who wish to become professional investors.
@@oscarlambert830 You allow people to trade for you? that's interesting, I would love to learn, hope it’s safe?
Wow I can't believe you guys are discussing about *Gary Mason Brooks* , I once met him at a conference in California 2019, just before the pandemic. I can testify that he’s very good in trading..Highly recommended…
what a hit piece
Unfortunately people are often severely injured or die on big construction projects. So you have mostly likely been in a stadium where someone paid with their life for you to enjoy the sporting events. And this is everywhere not just Qatar.
Agree, but the violations to all the worker's rights was hardly ever thus widespread, even for skyscrapers in New York in the 20's.
This is painful. My eyes burst with tears. I pray that the families of the deceased will be given what they have been fighting for. Humanity is more important than a fifa world cup
You must cry a lot atrocities happen everyday
Thanks for reporting on this issue and throwing light on the migrant labor issues, unfortunately these people take advantage of the desparate situations of these poor people, who are not educated enough to know they're being exploitated and treated like slaves.
I have a question ⁉️
After this FIFA, for what purpose this big stadiums would be used for?
It's possible they'll fall into disrepair, just as many stadiums that were built particularly for past Olympics games have.
Its crazy why they bring this up now
Thank you for this important video.
A small request, though. For the sake of your global audience, could you please list degrees in Celsius alongside Fahrenheit? It's a small adjustment that will make a big difference. Thank you.
A rule should be in place that any country that wishes to host the World Cup or the Olympics should have and use the facilities need to host the events.
Well then only developed countries will be hosting such sporting activities.
@@nemesiszz and that is exactly how it should be. If can't even care for your own people, why should you be hosting a sports event?
@@meespost2821 Do you know how much the South African economy and South African football improved after they win their bid and even today, 12 years after they hosted the world cup?
They may not have had the infrastructure, but jobs were created. A lot of those jobs are still available today and those stadiums have made South African football one of the best in Africa.
@@nemesiszz which is better. Hosting the Olympics or pushing a country further in poverty.
@@tazy97 pushing what country into poverty? Qatar? I guarantee you the average run of the mill Qatari is at least 10x wealthier than you and doesn't have to pay extorting taxes and medical bills
Blood is dripping from that football at the World Cup!
They have the same system in uk.
Go to Peterborough in uk and you will see
Never missed watching FIFA World Cup.
2022 I'll not regret missing...Rest In Peace ✌ those who lost their life....Boycott Qatar World Cup 2022
Bruh so sad... this is the last world cup when i'm still a child.. and it's a bad one
Going to Qatar for World Cup is like going on to North Korea. In the tournament many people tend to be liberal and will do things like drink alcohol and do things and Islamic country like Qatar won’t like compared to doing it in England where you free to things considered bad in Qatar. They are very strict. I’m not going to be surprised if many foreigners get jailed for one wrong move
westerm hypocrites like you are not welcomed anyway , the nerves on westerners cry about human rights when your countries are responsible for one million death in afganistan and and more than that in iraq by waging illegal wars , we have'nt heard anyone boycotting the us and the uk and the rest of the nato muppets for such crimes against humanity .
@@user-ve1sr2wi1w western hypocrites lol are the only teams that are good at football. Without the west, what good teams do we have here?
@@ok-vk9fv brazil , argentina and the list goes on . qatar should ban from coming the western nations that were responsible for crimes against human rights and millions of deaths like france , uk , usa and etcc .
The True Cost
of the Qutar Worldcup was the lives of those workers lost in building those stadiums. living in p[oor conditions and working overtime in those high temperatures.
If they fired every worker tomorrow they could hire another 1 million from the Indian subcontinent. What does that say about the condition in their home countries?
Great
Psychopath
Awesome opportunity for organizations wash money efficiently… and since it’s a growing country not much strict rules … sure corruption must be huge over there !! But congratulations project got done 🔥
Fifa officials can sell their family if Qatar offers them huge money!
Yes
This is devastating. Why can't they even pay decent compensation for those who got injured and died? People will forget everything once the world cup starts in a few months
Ishtuk jugia baichung vutia?
Damn I don’t think I would be able to enjoy watching the World Cup.
That means the propaganda did it's job
@@mohdsohail6467 you mean the truth?
@@mohdsohail6467you are brainwashed
@@mohdsohail6467 what propaganda? It's the truth.
40 millions children are killed intentionally by abortion which is advocated by the west ,,
333,000 are killed since 1980 with STDs which are caused by LGBT and immorality which the west support .
can u talk about this .. u are the corrupters .. u only have the media
Those things aren't good and all but we have to turn the negative into a positive and enjoy the games.Thats all we can do
And the line---Safety First!
