Sonapur (City of Gold in Hindi), which is not on the map, is now accommodation for more than 150,000 workers, mostly from India, Pakistan, Bangladesh and china. They rest until their shift comes up. They usually work 14 hours where in summer the temperature goes over 50 degree. Conversely, it is usually advised for western tourists not to stay outside more than five minutes in summer. Every evening, the hundreds of thousands of young men who build the city are bussed from their sites to a vast concrete wasteland.
Kim Sun, 32 from china who barely could speak English, built the wooden signage to express him self. He has not received his salary for 4 month and he is desperate to go back to China. Many of the labors are suffering of the same condition but since their passport is taken with their employee are forced to stick to their job. (Dubai, United Arab Emirates, 2013)
