"While waiting to board there was a group of foreign workers sitting
with the rest of the passengers waiting for their turn. They were
behaving normally as any other group of passengers would. Then sadly,
the lady (looking at her uniform she apparently works for MEA Ground
Services and not Air Arabia) at the gate announced on loud speaker (over
the whole system covering the airport) the following: “Filipino people
stop talking”; then she started giggling about it with the macho
gentleman who was with her at the gate. They continued their racist
behavior by announcing again “Filipino Nepal people talking not allowed
here” and on and on.
Shocked, I obviously became furious and approached them and explained that this racist and discriminatory behavior is not acceptable, impolite and does not at the least reflect what employees at Beirut Airport should stand for (not to imply it’s acceptance in any other situation of course)."
