Moving to Dubai from the UK

No one seems to have told you that the Gulf region is very racist. Name calling and abuse of Asians are pretty common. In the Emirates, there is a particular dislike of Pakistanis. So if you are of Pakistani origin, I would avoid the place like the plague. They also have an apartheid system of employment, so you get paid half as much as a gora. There health and education are private, so no comprehensive system like the NHS. And the rents are exhorbitant.

Renting in Arabian Ranches for example would be the same as renting in a zone 1 in London.

Dubai is a good place to visit, but for living, its a nightmare.

You are wrong about the racist thing. UAE is far more better than Kuwait or Saudia Arabia for example. Dubai is SO MUCH BETTER. No one is racist, they treat you with respect. This is coming from someone who has spent the past 15 something years in the middle east. Sorry to say people that don’t live here will never know.

You are wrong about the health and education being private. There are world class public schools and clinics/hospitals available here. Government health cards are cheaper than private insurances by a mil. All the best hospitals in Dubai namely Rashid/Wasl etc are government/public hospitals and offer very good health care at fraction of the cost.

Renting in Arabian Ranches depends on where in Arabian Ranches but yes Arabian Ranches is one of the best places to live in Dubai. HIGHLY POSH AREA. Very clean. Very friendly. You can afford it, come here.

Actually Dubai is a bad place for visiting and good for living. Why bad place? Because you cannot see the true Dubai is a couple of days. You need to LIVE HERE TO LOVE HERE.

It seems to me you are from London but I could be mistaken. If you like London so much stay there. No one is begging for you to come. No need for these kinds of dil jalli comments. Thanks much.
