I agree with you completely.... When you sign your contract, many times it doesn't help you at all once you are here...
I have been with the same company 5 years and have seen how the contract is used in favour of the employer. Our contract says we should get a raise annually.... We last got one 4 years ago.... when we ask, we get told there isn't any money.... Now, I am sorry, why bother keeping a company open, if there isn't any money to keep your employees happy... Costs have risen in Qatar, and my salary definately isn't enough to stretch the whole month - it never really was, but I live with that... Leaving isn't an option at the moment - no NOCs.... So I stay, because I love Qatar and will put up with it because my non-work time is what I live for.
Unfortunately, many people are very unhappy, and are in the same situation - you don't know what you are getting until you are actually here, and then its too late - It infuriates me when people say, you signed, so deal with it.
No sponsorship will improve how employers treat employees and I can tell you that most employees won't let a company down if they are happy with their lot in that company - it will be a mutual happy arrangement.
I vote Yes - Please Qatar, to improve your economy(cause it will with happier staff) do away with sponsorship.
