PEOPLE LIVING LEGALLY IN THE U.A.E FOR OVER THE PAST FEW DECADES HAVE BEEN DENIED RIGHT TO NATURALIZATION, OFTEN DISCRIMINATED ON THEIR RACIAL BACK GROUND THEY'VE BEEN DENIED RIGHTS WHICH LOCAL PEOPLE ENJOY, PEOPLE LIVING FOR 40 ODD YEARS HAVE BEEN CAUGHT IN A CRITICAL STATE OF BEING STATELESS.
IT'S ALMOST THE FOURTH GENERATION FOR SOME BUT STILL THEY ARE CONSIDERED AS EXPATRIATES, THEY CAN'T BUY THEIR OWN HOMES, THEY CAN'T WORK FOR ANY GOVERNMENT DEPARTMENT OR HOLD KEY POSITIONS IN ANY GOVERNMENT SECTOR NOR CAN THEIR KIDS ENJOY BENEFITS LIKE FREE EDUCATION AND OTHER BASIC BENEFITS ENJOYED BY THEIR LOCAL PEOPLE. I WONDER HOW MANY YEARS IT TAKES FOR A PERSON TO BE RECOGNIZED AS A PART OF THE LOCAL SOCIETY.
WE, THE UNDERSIGNED, CALL ON THE FEDERAL NATIONAL COUNCIL OF THE UNITED ARAB EMIRATES TO OFFER PERMANENT RESIDENCY AND FULL CITIZENSHIP TO ALL THE PEOPLE LIVING LEGALLY IN THE COUNTRY FOR OVER 20 YEARS.
