Hi Guppies and Guppan,
I visited Dubai recenlty and this was my first time to the emirate. I was really surprised to see so much development- more than I have seen anywhere- nice and clean roads, man-made islands, Jumeira, Palm Island, Dubai Marina, Sheikh Zayed Road etc.. Dubai rocks- best city in the world! 4 of my 15 brothers live and work in Dubai- 2 of them work for a construction company and they told me about the breakthough projects like Burj-Dubai, Al-Burj etc. that is being taken on by Arabs. This is one of the reasons I admire Arabs. I rode a cab and the cabbie was Pakistani. He told me that in Dubai they prefer Pakistanis over Indians any day. Most of the Pakistanis are well-paid, rich and landowners and Indians are shown the door- no one likes Hindus :Dfor their animal-loving beliefs. Sheikh Rashid Al-Maqtoum personally likes Pakistanis and has taken a lot of intere… infact, many of the apartments on Palm islands have been offered to Pakistanis at a subsidized low-price. Pakistanis(esp. Punjabis) are welcomed for their honesty and education. Most of the enterpreneurs, engineers and doctors are from Pakistan. Indians clean the trash and toilets

Dear Moin.. if you dont mind but could I remind you to be a little more sensitive in how you say things.. you may be offending our Indian community here on GS and GS as far as I know encourages tolerance and respect of each other beliefs and religions… thank you…
yes Dubai has an enticing veneer- its mammoth high tech constructions…very cosmopolitan communty.. however the reality is that whilst this veneer is projected to the global community.. one mustnt forget that there is a community of REAL people and a life that wouldnt share your sentiments…its nice to bear this in mind…
