| Title | The greatest threat to reform | ||||
| Description | I fully expect Özil to continue on from where he left off after the FIFA World Cup and improve his performances in the coming year as I believe there is a lot more to come from Özil in the coming years and may be a contender for FIFA player of the season next season if he continues to produce wonderful performances and people acknowledge/praise him for finer details of the FIFA 15 game in which Ozil’s overall FIFA 15 game is defined by.Withdrawing the FIFA World Cup from Qatar could pull the issue of workers 'rights out of the spotlight and entrench the status quoWhen Sep Blatter mounts his PR plinth and robustly declares that “fair working conditions with a lasting effect must be introduced quickly in Qatar” as he did this week, the eyes of an exasperated audience roll back and browsers are refreshed to reveal more troubling prophecies from global watchdogs about the impending apocalypse awaiting the emirate’s migrant labourers as 2022 approaches.Every cheap fifa coins week layers are added to the thickening mesh of malpractice, inefficiency and abuse that further entrench the Qatari workforce in the quicksand of modern-day serfdom, whilst Blatter chirps blithely about hitherto invisible reforms and his organisation’s commitment to humanitarian fair-FIFA play. But unlike the usual hot-air that puffs out of Zurich whenever FIFA HQ serves up a fresh order of its dithering incompetence and wilful indifference to ethicality there is cause this time, with the international labour movement bearing down, for the world to be hopeful.Change to a lesser or greater extent is inevitable, though likely in spite of rather than because of Blatter’s empty reassurances, and the international attention channelled by the FIFA World Cup will bring unbearable pressure down upon the racketeers that have rotted the Qatari labour market. The greatest threat to reform now would be for the transparency that the global media spotlight has helped usher in to be blocked – a likely consequence if International Trade Union Congregation president Michael Sommer’s threat to pressure FIFA into withdrawing the tournament from the emirate is realised.The ITUC have so far been one of the driving forces behind the exposé on the systemic abuse that drives Qatari labour. In a state where migrants make up 90% of the workforce rogue contractors rig terms of employment to prevent dissatisfied workers from leaving the country, withholding passports and wages until desperate men submit to Dickensian conditions that strip them of basic human provisions. Free movement of labour is an illusion in Qatar, and Sommer’s organisation have been working closely with FIFA and the publishers of the most revealing insights into the state of FIFA play on the ground in Qatar, Amnesty International, to bring the problems out of the shadows and into the executive board rooms in Zurich and Doha. | ||||
