卡達成千上萬的外來勞工在卡達Doha 看足球世界盃的開幕式。

他們在城外一個特殊區域看，這裡生活著成千上萬的卡達低收入人群。那裡有兩個大的螢幕，一個在體育館內，一個在大量低收入人群生活的擁擠區。“低收入區，窮人可免費觀看。”

卡達有大量天然氣而成為富裕國家。該國有290萬外來人員，從低收入勞工到有權有勢的商人。

卡達政府透過一項改革，最低工資為1000里亞爾或275美元。這比外來工在家鄉的收入高。

Thousands of migrant workers took pictures of themselves while watching the opening game of the soccer World Cup in Doha， Qatar

They were watching from a special fan zone near the workers‘ area outside the city。 The area is where hundreds of thousands of Qatar’s low-income workers live。 There were two large television screens set up， one inside the stadium and one set up outside for the additional crowds。

“With this stadium for free， they‘re considering poor people also，”

Qatar is a rich country with a large natural gas field。 Most of the country’s 2。9 million people are foreign workers， from low-paid laborers to high-powered businessmen。

The Qatari government has passed labor reforms that include a minimum monthly wage of 1，000 Qatari rials or about $275。 This amount is more than the laborers usually earn back in their home countries。
