Should players and spectators boycott the 2022 World Cup?
Qatar has reportedly spent $US230 billion on the FIFA World Cup, including building new stadiums and public transport. And it's that infrastructure, and the migrant workforce that built it, which attracts controversy. For decades, Qatar used a system of bonded labour that exploited and abused workers from Asia.
About The PCA (Property Care Association)
In today’s episode of The Damp Show, Damp Sam tells you all about the leading accrediting body that supplies training and works with the government on industry white papers. Discover why they are good for the preservation industry, how you can join the association and listen to Damp Sam’s journey along the way.

KEY TAKEAWAYS
- The Property Care Association (PCA) is the UK's leading trade association for property care, representing specialists in areas such as damp treatment and striving to promote the work of contractors.
- Plasters, joiners and labourers are ideal candidates for surveyors due to the amount of time and experience they have working on site.
- Don’t put pressure on yourself trying to be the best when revising for trade qualifications. Aim for the pass mark because the real learning starts once you’re on sight.
- Apprentices need to get out there and make their own mistakes in order to learn.
BEST MOMENTS
“I was just aiming to pass the test, I wasn’t aiming for 99%.”
“Before I went on the PCA course I attended the 2-day technician's course, I constantly wanted to learn.”
“Plasterers and labourers make for fantastic damp proofers as they have lots of experience on sight and in that environment.”
“After Covid-19 a lot of companies and manufacturers transitioned to online learning so there’s lots of information available now.”

West Indies Cricket, Jackals and Mariamman Temples
In the early 2000’s, a concerned government official approached Dave Martins. Dave was an iconic musician from the Caribbean, who was the lead vocalist of the band Tradewinds. Someone who had his finger on the pulse of the Southern Caribbean islands. The government official asked him to write a song to quell the ethnic violence in Guyana. In another time, at the turn of the 20th century, Tamilians from Madurai and Dindigul were flocking the ports of Pondicherry, Karikal and Madras waiting to board ships for a better future.
What could possibly connect the ethnic violence in Guyana to the ports of Tamil Nadu? This week, in the eight episodes of the series, The Great Migration, we trace the history, mythology and stories of indentured migrants. We discover what connects West Indies Cricket, Jackals, the Mariamman Temples of Tamil Nadu and the Sheetla Devi temples of North India, and what they teach us about the human race.
