Re: dubai
Quite the contrary champ. Had I been materialistic I would have stayed on in A.D. and could have made a fortune. The point about citizenship you clearly dont understand. When a non-Western person goes over to M-E generally it is to better themselves as they are much poorer in their respective homelands [nothing wrong with that]. Unfortunately, these people often have little or no choice but to suffer the inhumane treatment by their Arab paymasters. Whereas as a westerner you can simply tell them to f off and head back home.
Out of interest if u were offered Dubai citizenship would u not take it? [dont say no to save face] Surely it would be more practical than say Pakistani or Indian?
