Give those drivers a break. Most of them probably did not experience driving on a wet road before, or worse doesn't know the effect of rain water on asphalt.

Aww... I've never been to Wild Wadi. But I'll go there for sure one of these days. It'll be more fun if I can bring along my friends- the more the better! And yes, we'll take pictures everywhere! Cool.

It's ok. I was expecting something extraordinary with the interior designs,. but it looks so ordinary, like everything was rushed.
The aquarium is so-so.

I thought they dont allow gay people here? Did his celebrity status overrride that rule?

No brit the author interviewed showed even a bit of sympathy for the labourers and maids. I do not understand why this article from the UK painted a very horrible image of its people.

^ Which parts of it do you think are exaggerated?

Oppsss.... The Independent published a lengthy article by Johann Hari headlined “The Dark Side of Dubai.” One of the prominent Emiratis featured, Sultan Sooud Al Qassemi, hits back at the report. http://www.arabianbusiness.com/552114-looking-at-the-qbright-sideq-of-dubai I was expecting him to deny...

I feel that Independent article made many of you happy!?!?!?!!! it says the truth... yeah it highlights some of Dubai major issues.. like the labour camps etc... but that article is just picking on extremes... I admit I am one of them. There's too much injustice going on around here and nobody want...

lol. Before, taxi drivers avoid traffic congestions. Now they will start looking for it!
This rule says a lot about those who make them: lazy.

what was the goal of the hall campain ? a better life for them ? do they have it back home ? do you think they won't get abused to make moeny over there ? I don't get you. Are you trying to justify the abuses these people are experiencing from their employers or are you trying to shift the blame to...

afaik, we only get brown blood when the regular one is left out in the open to oxidize.

I hope whatever the questions are, his answers will be direct to the point.

Let's see if they publish and tackle awkward questions in an open manner. If they do then it's a positive step. If it's just a publicity puff then it's not. uaekid that's not being negative that's suspending judgement until we see the results, understood? stop getting defensive already. I for one w...

I think it may be due to the fact that AD is smaller so the interaction between different cultures becomes unavoidable. Does AD also have 'ethno-specific' communities? Like Dubai has Karama for Indians, Marina for Westerners, etc?

It's a personal issue borabora. She's supposed to be a white person but those damn arabs keep mistaking her for a filipina maid. I think the issue is consuming her really bad.

Sorry guys.

Not all of us are fond of 'singing', I myself am annoyed with that trait. :roll: If you happen to have a filipino neighbor, expect them to fill your weekend nights with their wailing and belting. I wish those videoke systems get banned here! lol. I am a happy person too, but I also do not feel the n...

In a job as boring as a salesperson standing around all day, can't blame them really. I'd rather see them singing than just staring blankly somewhere.

Wow... received from an email. Could anyone confirm if this is true and really is from Dubai?

It could be the answer to living in Mars. Think about it, you dont need to inhale/exhale anymore. the exchange of O2 and C02 is happening in your lungs.

Mr Sultan had an excellent chance to refute the article but he didnt. Instead he went on a rant meaning: "Yes we have many bad things in Dubai, and theres bad things in UK as well" So???? Just because London has ills doesnt mean Dubai should have the same. I am a Dubai wellwisher, I dont ...

lol. An exclusive label for japan- "japanese". :lol: How come they get to have their own label? How come America and Canada, or UK and the rest of europe do not complain being bundled with the same label with their 'favorite' neighbors? :lol: And the philippines... The author made it a poi...

^ Imho, the best way to respond is to prove those critics that they're wrong, or admit that they are right, or at least show that dubai is really doing something to correct those observed wrongs- straight up. THAT will stop them- and dubai can even earn those critics' respect. Playing with emotions ...

The way he suddenly just slumped on the floor showed how devastating the ordeal was to him. Poor guy.

Is he really oblivious of the fact that those laborers came here on high hopes and false promises?
If these people knew what they are really getting themselves in to, they wouldn't come here, that's for sure. But it's not the UAE's problem right?

pinoy1

then what?

I fail at sarcasm
