Report 11b

Below is my first production report to project 3. There is still much to do but any suggestions would help.

Audience question: I used form to present my content to make sure that my project is well organized. I avoided showing bias as much as I could.

Outline Item:
Main body section 2:

-Main idea: How workers in Qatar building are working in inhumane conditions and unethical circumstances
-Evidence: There is evidence showing that workers from India, Pakistan, Nepal and other nations are forced to stay and work in Qatar. By Qatari companies taking away the passports of migrant workers, they are not allowed to leave. In addition, they are paid close to nothing considering the amount of work they do. Furthermore, the living standards are poor for these workers with most living in slums.
-What the evidence proves: Workers are living in poor conditions, are trapped in Qatar and cannot leave, and are not getting paid enough for the amount of work they do

-Importance of evidence: The evidence proves that workers are similar to slaves


Adaption of Outline Item:

The workers building stadiums for the World Cup is just another problem, which indicates that Qatar hosting the World Cup is not a good idea. Almost all of the workers that are constructing the stadiums for the World Cup are migrants from India, Pakistan, Nepal and other underdeveloped nations. They are working inhumane conditions with poor living standards. Firstly, there is evidence that proves that the migrant workers are forced to stay and work in Qatar. Qatari companies have taken away the passports of migrant workers and are thus not permitted to leave. Furthermore, the workers are paid close to nothing considering the amount of work they contribute. The living standards are also poor with most living in slums. This violation of basic human rights is just one of the many factors which prove that Qatar should not be allowed to host the world cup. These acts in many cases show how similar workers are to slaves.

  1. Overall, I think this section of your project looks good. The content seems strong and flows pretty well. I would like to make a suggestion about the form for this section. I am sure that you are going to hae images of the world cup stadium being built and the conditions of the workers, but I thik finding a video of an interview with the workers by 60 minutes or something will really improve your project. Other than that, I wish you luck on this project.
