Can we just close this forum?

Only two people post here regularly, which is once every 2 months. Most others just come in to talk about their bad experiences they had when they traveled or lived there. It’s not like many exciting things go on there, so might as well just delete it and make a combined “Gulf” forum.

Re: Can we just close this forum?

Riyadh / Jeddah? are they technically part of Gulf .. I am always confused about Middle East and Gulf regions, which countries are part of which?

Their newspaper refers to the whole area as Gulf.

No we need a seperate Dubai forum. Thanks.

Re: Can we just close this forum?

The Gulf includes the 6 GCC countries.
They are :-

  • Saudi Arabia
  • Bahrain
  • Kuwait
  • UAE
  • Oman
  • Qatar

Yemen was being considered to be included .Not sure whether its already included or not.

For more info you can read thisGCC

In my Opinion , Since this section is usually empty its a better option to combine it all under Gulf countries.
In short I agree with teendabbywala

The section will mostly be dominated by Posts relating to Dubai , so just 4-5 threads regarding the other Gulf countries would not be a Problem I think.
Atleast the place will not look deserted :slight_smile:

PS: my 2 cents :smiley:
