00:00Alhamdulillah, we are living in the United Arab Emirates, the country which welcomes
00:07everyone to come and to stay and to live and to work as happy as he can.
00:16The most safe country.
00:19Since we welcome everyone in this country to come to work in this country, to work with
00:25us, to be living with us, to be a part of this development.
00:29Why not?
00:30When they will face any problem, not to support them, not to be with them, not to be more
00:35close to them, to solve their problems.
00:39I know the problem does not belong to them.
00:42They didn't create it and I believe it 100%.
00:46The problem started since they left their countries and most of them are saying that.
00:54They are promising them with jobs here, most of them.
00:58You will arrive at the airport and you will get your job ready.
01:01Ok, where is our appointment letter, where is our job certificate, the company we are
01:11going to work.
01:12No, no, no, you just go to the airport and you will get your job.
01:15These people are coming, they don't understand, they are not educated.
01:20They will arrive, they will try to force this difficulty.
01:24It's not easy to find a job.
01:26The company, they have procedures, they have a system, they have a legal system to follow.
01:34Some of them, they got jobs.
01:36Most of them, they don't get these jobs.
01:39They cannot go back home.
01:41It is a feeling of a human.
01:43He left his country, he left his house, promising his family that he is going to offer them
01:48a better life, going back with a free hand.
01:52That's why they are staying illegals.
01:54But from our side, we have to stand with them, we have to support them, we have to
01:59try to solve their problems.
02:02Since I told you, this is the United Arab Emirates, always will take care of these poor
02:06people, to be with them.
02:09We are the humanitarian country.
02:13We must support these people and everybody here, if you will see today, today we are
02:17starting the amnesty.
02:19Today is Sunday, supposed to be no duty.
02:22But all of the officers, all of the staff of Dubai Immigration are available.
02:28They are on duty just to provide the best services for these people.
02:34Not only that, and we invited more than 10 companies already now here, they are interviewing
02:42people for jobs.
02:44This is from our side.
02:47We will not stop.
02:49Seven days a week, we are working continually.
02:53Supposed to be from 8 to 8, but we are opening 7 o'clock in the morning.
02:56No problem.
02:57You will see the facilities, you will see the canteen, you will see the drinks, all
03:02these are for free.
03:05Just this amnesty should be supporting these people.
03:12And that's it.
03:14We are welcoming everyone, and I have to ask everyone to come to us.
03:19You are most welcome.
03:20You will get only the support, you will not get anything, and you will not leave this
03:24place, beautiful place, air-conditioned place, unhappy.
03:29All of you will be happy, hopefully, inshallah.
03:32Thanks for everyone, thanks for the media, thanks for the teams, for the social people.
03:38We need the support, all of us one team, we have to work together.
03:43Thank you very much.
