Doha: In a dusty corner of Qatar’s booming capital, a sign outside a modest restaurant popular with migrant labourers reads: “If you are hungry and have no money, eat for free!!!” Sixteen kilometres from the gleaming glass towers of Doha, one of the richest places on the planet, sits the “Industrial Area” of small-scale workshops, factories and low-cost accommodation.

Three weeks ago the brothers, Shadab Khan and Nishab Khan, decided to put up a sign outside their 16-seater eaterie, offering free food to people, who cannot afford to pay for it. PIC/AFP/AL-WATAN DOHA / KARIM JAAFAR
