There was a time...

There was a time when construction of mega projects were everywhere in Dubai. I'm sure you've heard of Palm Jumeirah, Burj Khalifa, Emirates Towers, Dubai Ski Dome and many others. But with the recent crisis, construction of new mega projects have reduced dramatically. Many construction jobs were lost as a result. As many of these construction workers are foreigners, they had to either return to their home country or seek alternative employment in other countries. Not only construction workers were affected by the crisis. I know of a restaurant manager who had to return to his home country too.
