Sorry Mark. I do not reckognise that description of The UAE United Arab Emirates. Dubai being a city of that country. Abu Dhabi is the Capital.
The population of the UAE is around 9 million. The local population around
4. million the expat from various countries around 5 million.
The British government signed a hundred years agreement to manage the country. Dubai in Particul.
Shiek Rashid al maktoum the then ruler who signed that deal was a great believer in the British. He told his sons keep with the British.
This was printed the Gulf News and the Khaleej times. the two main newspapers. The now ruler Sheik Mohamed has religously followed his fathers request. Many, many brits are employed by the City itself.
The Asian Labour is being treated better than they were before, British Influence. But it has taken a couple of generations.
The problem is a lot of people forget they are in a Muslim country, and when they forget that, things can happen. And sometimes it takes time to resolve. Do not believe all the stories you read about. Brits have stolen large amounts of money from them. Raped air hostesses, and other things not a word in the british or world press about things like that.
To find out about the UAE. The Gulf News and the Khaleej Times newspaper are on line.
There are seven Emirates. Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Ras Al Kyma, Fujaria, Ajman, Um Qwaim, Sharjah, They declared independance in 1971 from Britain as an independant nation and signed another deal with Britain as I explained earlier.
Abu Dhabi is the richest followed by Dubai. Both whom have oil reserves no other Emirate has. End of History lesson.
In my own case I was seconded there, by the British Miiltary, during my earlier days I met a couple of young arabs that wanted more than being a camel driver so to speak. I spoke to my father who ran a particular type of business for the aircraft industry, the young guys fronted money. The Al Maktoum family became involved.
My father opened an office in Dubai. I resigned from the military and joined him in this new venture. We used to move between the Uk office and the Dubai office on a shared basis. The rest is history.
And people liketo hide behind the word GUEST write things like he does. Do my head in

If this is the same Roc from Sol is suspect it's because he is notoriously full of shit.
And he definitely did claim to have lived for an extended period in Spain although I could not say whether that claim, his claim to have lived in Dubai, his claim to have served in the army and the air force, and for all I know the navy, the police and the coast guard too are true, intentionally false or fanciful inventions.
The trouble with proven and self-confessed liars is no-one can trust them even if they're telling the truth

I know Roc from days of yore too, back in the days on SOL when BNP supporters were taking a daily beating. I honestly can't remember claims of living in Spain. I always had the impression he was a Scaley Brat (son of serving military) and did his travelling then.

Indeed they do but Rocsforbrains doesn't know that - it's because he is so full of shit he makes a cesspool look like a swimming pool that has just been cleaned.

scaly Brat. No I did not know it. But I have a question for you, Why have you not given up your Avatar name You used on sol. Too much of a coward are you, yes you are. Give it up you shit for brains coward. Not every single person in my unit ever used that expression round me. outside of that. Army brat was commonly used.
The Rsole who hides behind the word guest, will not give up his avatar he used on sol I would bet money on it. He would rather hide behind a paper bag Just a trolling coward. What was you avatar, what was your avatar,
what was your avatar, what was your avatar now i'm gonna shout it, . WHAT WAS YOUR AVATAR.
