A high-ranking Dubai official has publicly criticized a British podcaster for making false and offensive claims about the city. The podcaster alleged that Dubai was built on slave labour, a statement that Dubai’s top officials have strongly refuted.
Ahmed bin Sulayem, the chief of the Dubai Multi Commodities Centre (DMCC), wrote an open letter addressing these false accusations. He highlighted the irony that the same podcaster intends to include Dubai in his 2026 world tour.
The official emphasized several key points about Dubai’s status and labour practices:
- Dubai is one of the most respected and modern cities globally.
- The city enforces strict labour laws.
- There is a strong commitment to the welfare of all its residents.
This controversy has attracted significant attention and sparked discussions across social media platforms. Dubai continues to present itself as a global business hub that respects human rights and maintains high standards for working conditions. The city’s leadership remains dedicated to:
- Correcting misinformation.
- Promoting a fact-based understanding of its development.
This official response underscores the importance of combating false narratives that could harm Dubai’s international reputation. For further updates, stay tuned to Questiqa World News.
