Why is there controversy over this illustration?
I mean, so what if students see a cartoon representing the ever-dwindling number of locals compared to expats?
Isnt that the truth?
If so, then why the uproar and the "humiliation"? This is an example of us locals jumping the gun on what we deem scandalous... Its stated in the article that ill be confused over my national identity? WHAT?
This is ridiclous.

It's a fact, that's true, but is it okay to put it in a school textbook? What's the point? What are you teaching the kids?
It's more like something to be written in a newspaper or magazine.
I agree, it's a political statement and really shouldn't be in a school book.
But I also agree that I can't see how Emiratis would be 'humiliated' or 'confused over their identity'. That's nonsense surely?
yea i agree that it shouldnt be placed in textbooks.
I dont get why they would be confused over their identity either.
and what is with them and writing crazy things in textbooks?
