A country where 10% of people are citizens, there’s a few expats, and nearly everyone else is a Bangladeshi or Nepali slave laborer doing all the work. With no rights, no prospect of citizenship, etc. The Davos view of where societies are headed.

The no prospect of citizenship is not an issue. Everyone just goes to the UAE for the lack of taxes and the money, not to become a citizen.
The benefit of not granting citizenship is that it makes it much easier to kick out people again and maintaining benefits for citizens.
