Great places. Wish my 4WD powerful enough to go there. PS: try to resize the photo (smaller) for faster download/opening. MS Paint will do, if you don't have Photoshop. what do you drive xty??? if its a 4x4 (not an all-wheel drive SUV) then you shouldn't have major issues driving through the desert...
Was Tucson V6 2.7L (mine, sold) Now Tucson 2.0L (friend's who left for good abandoning the car) Though it has sports mode gear and automatic 4WD locking, but it's not really powerful for deep sands like on the picture (in the middle of nowhere, just for taking photographs of sand dunes with no foot...
I think manual gear is a different story ;) There's no low gear on Tucson (automatic) other than D-1-2 gears, 4WD switch (with automatic locking & distribution), and +- sports mode overriding D (which I feel it doesn't help much either). But I think I'll give it a try someday. I think it'd be e...
Well no actually this means that taxi drivers will be discouraged from refusing to pick people up for short journeys only. They've just introduced a minimum charge from Dubai to Sharjah of 20 Dhs for the same reason. Isn't it 20 AED on top of what is on the meter? yes you are correct Bora Bora... t...

I am a kind of person who tend to forgive and offer a second chance... but all this depends on who is the person in question and what they did? mind you... I may forgive but I may not be willing to continue the relationship... lost trust is extremely hard to get it back... Time will heal.. this is t...
I don't think it's exaggerated at all. huh!!!!!! I admit the article represent true conditions in UAE.... however, that article speaks about extreme situations which does not represent reality in Dubai!!?!? here is a nice reply by a blogger in regards to this article RC, I found the bit on Karen An...
Britain's ministe of interior who is in Abu-Dhabi, even publicly distanced himself from such"over exaggerated" articles by Brit Publications! If you're in the lion's cage, is it right to piss off the lion? read this http://www.arabianbusiness.com/551961-uk-govt-distances-itself-from-dubai...
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...
Gulf News: 14 April 2009 "Sharjah: An 18-month-old baby has been declared an illegal resident by the Sharjah Naturalisation and Residency Department (SNRD) and has been given one week to leave the country after which she will get a one-year ban. Nayana Sanjay Kumar was born in October 2007 at ...
rent in shj is going up :( You are definately doing something very wrong here. You're being shunned. Negotiate!!! Or leave. If you still believe that property owners can follow their Return On Investment strategies for the coming two years, you are sadly mistaken. Read what happens with the neighbo...

Rent in Qusais and International city is just about the same as it is in Sharjah. my relatives lives in a 3bd apartment on al Qasba sharjah for 60K... do you get 3bed apartment in international city for 60K????????????? not to mention ...
in my opinion... This rule is extremely stupid... I know about the rule if you want to sponsor your family, there is a minimum wage limit which is fare... but another minimum income limit to sponsor a new baby?!?!?!? so if I got married and my wife got pregnant and delivered a baby... what on earth ...
It looks like prices in just constructed skyscrapers are lower (to fill them) than for old buildings.... :? this is very true.. especially with the new delivered skycreepers in Sharjah and Dubai... the problem in Ajman at the moment is that there are too many new delivered buildings... however ther...
They are like a fly buzzing around in your ear. It can be very annoying. Everywhere you go there is singing if there is a filipino around - even if there is just one of them! And you can forget about it if you are in a store that has music playing - they are all singing!!! loooooooooooooooooooooooo...
Okay you wanna know what happened? Just spoke to daddyo, here it is, nothing very interesting to be honest. The two ops pilots, who look after take off and landing, got their weight figures wrong, so obviously as they're going down the runway, the plane is alot heavier than they calculated. They ar...
