For sure. How on earth are they going to "sell" Dubai to the West when they don't respect our customs??!! Fine, it's their country. But if they want us to visit them, they should smarten the fuck up and stop screwing us around. Otherwise, they can take their little place and shove it while Westerners visit more accomodating parts of the world.I don't even now why anyone bothers going to any of those places when there are many other beautiful places around the world u can go.
A lot of people go there to make tax-free money. Money talks. People will do weird things and go to strange places for money.I don't even now why anyone bothers going to any of those places
Same reason they go to Las Vegas I guess.With so many beautiful places in the world why on earth does anyone want to go to a flat, hotter than Hell spot on the shore of the Persian Gulf with no architecture to speak of unless you like modern high rises and artificial islands created in strange shapes.
Most foreigners go to Dubai to work. Fillipino housekeepers and nannys. Fillipino construction workers to build the world's tallest building. Native Dubaians don't work. Westerners go there because the salary is double what they make in the U.S. and is tax-free.With so many beautiful places in the world why on earth does anyone want to go to a flat, hotter than Hell
Dubai sounds like a dangerous place.
Kinda make you wonder with all these so-called "sins" going on, why there is no muslim extremist ever attacking that place.
There has been outrageous cases of injustice in North America too.
Maybe they pay "protection money".Kinda make you wonder with all these so-called "sins" going on, why there is no muslim extremist ever attacking that place.
To work!I don't even now why anyone bothers going to any of those places when there are many other beautiful places around the world u can go.
I had a friend who worked in Kuwait as an Engineer. He said the same thing. He said initially the Kuwaitis wanted him to run everything past them as only they could make the decisions, however, they were quite incompetent and lazy. After a while, they just told him to handle it as they really didn't want to work anyway.Most foreigners go to Dubai to work. Fillipino housekeepers and nannys.

Easier to protect (and control) a country that is a dictatorship than a free and open society like the U.S. Just ask the PRC.Maybe too they know how to protect their country better.
