Robot camel jockeys
No. Really.
CWCID: The Emirates Economist.
Citing a recent decision issued by Sheikh Hamdan bin Zayed Al Nahyan, Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of State for Foreign, banning jockeys under 16 years of age from competing in camel races held in the country, Sheikh Sultan said: “With the introduction of this law and the production of the first generation of robot jockeys in August this year, the UAE will have adhered to the international regulations governing camel-racing while at the same time preserving the traditional character of camel races as a popular local heritage".
