Well dependent normally means a child, you'd have to check with immigration regarding that. Hate to say it but you are going to find it very very difficult without any qualifications to find a job, as for all work permits/visas they now ask for copies of attested qualification certificates. Any comp...

Well unfortunately there you have another problem. Women as a rule cannot sponsor their spouses unless they're in a certain profession like being a doctor. It really doesn't matter what job title a company puts on the visa at the end of the day, sometimes you just gotta suck it up. There's loads of ...

ern no you ain't honey bun! You've got along way to go, before this 'bubble' even comes close to reality! And don't harp on about God to me either, I'll burst into flames! HSBC might be a global bank - I bank with them, but they have their problems you know. At the end of the day the survey is what ...

In most areas you won't get much more than a 1 bed apartment for what you want to pay unfortunately, unless you go to International City. Unfurnished, usuall...

FF, I'd have more respect for you, if you actually contributed to the forum, but you do not. You have a fabulous opportunity to answer people's questions on here from a 'locals' point of view, yet you choose not to. All us expats answer all the queries and quesitons, which only leads me to believe o...

Ah then International City might well be good for you as it's only just up the road from where you'll be working. Cars - no idea, I've been here too many years to know the difference now. Depends what you want and what you want to pay. Although there are several dealers that you shouldn't touch with...

Well an honest answer to the question is yes! To some extent. THis is purely because the place has become so westernized and has basically lost what little cultural identity it had. The majority of Emiratis whist embracing many of those aspects, many would say they never asked this to happen to thei...

And that's exactly the point. The 'majority' of 'expats' in the UAE are low income Asian workers. Now if they'd interviewed a cross section of these people, the outcome would have been very very different indeed.

Pinoy, give it up, he doesn't get it. He'll never understand the fact that many of these people come and work here because they have little choice in their own countries, because there basically is no work.

I don't think G00se is talking about modern luxury, he's talking more about the younger generation wanting to follow western fashion styles and ways of dressing. Example many of the young women are wearing clothes that leave little to the imagination underneath their abayas. I have an Emirati friend...

Plus I don't agree with what you say about people not experiencing things before they got here. In fact I would say most expats that are here are merely 'passing through', they're travellers moving from place to place, Dubai just seems like a nice place to be for a few years. It's always been a tran...

You've got it all wrong! We're the ones using you! We come play about for a few years then leave again. You're the reason many Emiratis have a bad name, because of your use and abuse attitude.
