Rosh
Dubai
by Rosh on Dec 08, 2009 11:36 AM

Hey guys,
Dubai is always Dubai and India is always India and so is the case with any other country. Dubai would never have been in this height without the so called coolies from India, Nepal, Bangladesh, Egypt or Pakistan. They worked hard, fought the heat (50-55 degrees), ignored the living conditions etc etc etc.
Every upward economic growth is followed by a downward one. There might have been certain flaws but I guess these are common.

Peace

DUBAI ECONOMY WILL NEVER FALL
by Sushil Kumar on Dec 08, 2009 09:30 AM  | Hide replies

YOU PEOPLE (WHO TALK NEGATIVE ABOUT DUBAI)ARE JEALOUS ABOUT DUBAI. I WORK IN DUBAI AND I HAVE SOME KNOWLEDGE ABOUT THIS ISSUE. MANY OF YOU PEOPLE TALK ABOUT DUBAI WITHOUT KNOWING THE FACTS, THE POSITIVE LEADERS THEY HAVE, THE ECONOMY SUPPORT THEY HAVE. THEY GOVERNMENT CARES ABOUT THE PEOPLE. THERE IS A CRISIS, BUT IT IS VERY SMALL, BUT BLOWN OUT OF PROPORTION.

THIS CRISIS WILL BE SEEN AS AN LEARNING OPPORTUNITY AND HEREAFTER THE GOVERNMENT WILL FOLLOW A CAUTIOUS DEVELOPMENT.

YOU COME HERE AND SEE, DUBAI IS MOVING AS USUAL AND THERE IS NO SIGNS OF THE RECESSION. I AGREE THE CONSTRUCTION SECTOR IS AFFECTED. BUT CONSTRUCTION IS NOT THE ONLY SECTOR IN DUBAI. NOTE MY WORD, DUBAI WILL EASILY RECOVER FROM THIS CRISIS.

THE RULERS IN DUBAI ARE NOT LIKE THE RULERS IN INDIA. THEY CARE ABOUT THE PEOPLE.

DUBAI IS ONE OF THE BEST PLACE TO LIVE IN. INDIANS HERE IN DUBAI FEEL THE SAME. THE HELPFUL POLICE, THE GOVERNMENT SYSTEMS ARE SUPERB AND WILL TO FIGHT AND IMPROVE.

nice one sushil..

i always used to hate ppl commenting on cities and countries not knowing what the actual reality was..

i was born in dubai and lived there for 20 yrs of my life and now am settled in melbourne..

even in melbourne ppl used to comment about racist attacks and all that without knowing the actual truth..

im definitely sure that this is only a minor hiccup for dubai.. they grew up to be what they are today from nothing.. and they will come back with full force once again..

by rajeev kunhiraman on Dec 07, 2009 09:05 AM

Dear friends,
Its time each and everyone had an introspection.There are enough jobs to do here,denying which for the lust of money and greed,people paid a price.The 70s dryness are a past dream,the 90s and 2000s are time of plush oppertunities.Wake up and smell the coffee.

Not just that - sit on top of Indians and ... use them as cheap labour, forget about any dignity, with third rate white men as their bosses, near slave conditions of work... and this great big country called India could do nothing.

why didnt u do anything about it then 'ravi'?

PPl went there to make a living (like my dad did) and most of them succeded by god's grace..

yes, there are ppl who cudn't do the same, but thats not the fault of the country.. is it?

Exploitation, work right etc etc ppl dont even get it in india for ex... yes, it is definitely sad and a helpless sight to see all these workers being exploited, but you know what 'there are many among them that come thru these hardships' with their heads held high...

Hey Matthew,,,r u sure? You mean to say you and your kind who leave your miserable,despicable hilly billy life in the backwaters of Kerala,Andhra,Tamil Nadu or Karanataka who have nothing to offer to the world besides inhumane indignity.Your kind are known to be the "Indian koooolies" who do anything for survival, like a cocroche. Yo are the same people whose life depends on the Shaikh's giving you a job. Again you have proven me what a despicable human being you are. Like your all other bretherns, accuse the hands who feeds you. What a nimrod.

well said, sunil.
If anyone says...bite the hand that feeds you...tell them back..If we made money, thats because we worked hard, not anyone's charity..and of course we dont grovel just because someone's got capital...We do our work get paid, and after that if we ever see anyone bossing around, we would not mind giving a kick and do them in. Infact we are good at that...

A lesson for all grovellers.....MONEY DOES NOT BUY YOU RESPECT.....LEARN IT FROM KERALITES...

dont say like that.
If u know the history, then what an keralite say may be correct. Have u ever thought why keralites are become more in middleeast. that too muslims. Have u ever think about it?
See, petrol was found just 80-90 years before this region. Still how the keralites know there are middleeast countries here?
This is because keralites have more thatn 1000 years relationship with arabs.
Also since majority of them are keralites and if somebody ask frm which country u r from, the answer will be frm kerala.
In middleeast kerala is morethan India.
Also their next question will be which part of india.
So It will be better for them to answer with Kerala and everybody knows kerala is from india.
so nothing wrong in it.

whatever it may they are better than indians and indian politicians. how many of u will consider outsiders as a part of u.
Till this time there is no racial attitude from them.
Even in india one of people dont like other part even if they contribute to the society.
Example marathies in mumbai and their party(Thackerays).
With all these attitude within us u r mocking them. Then u dont have any rite to tell against them.

indians by and large are of slave mentality.... if you have read the article carefully.. you noiced indians are ready to work in inhumane conditions in "UAE" but not in "INDIA"... so you get what you want.. example would be tata nano... well there were few drawbacks in the plan... but it was not so bad.. but the muslims from wb are ready work for UAE but not sell the land of tata . even in the worst case you would be better off.. just a thought..

UAE is the best in the world!!
by syed jawahar on Dec 05, 2009 04:05 PM  | Hide replies

Iam an Indian living in Dubai for more than 4 years now. UAE is the best country in the world which actually suits the proverb which Indians usually say in INDIA but lacks...ie "UNITY IN DIVERSITY!!".

UAE is the only country where only 20% are actual citizens and 80% are from 130 countries of the world but still we are united!!!. Here the rules are strict, no one should tease women, gives best salary to an individual!, No income tax on the salary!!, No parking charges, Live with dignity!.

Sometimes I feel King rule is better than politics to develop a better nation!.

brother u will not say this if you have stayed here even for 1 week!. Their hospitality is amazing...They like indians very much and so they give very responsibility based jobs...

UAE country is not like:
1) They are not like the kannada people where they shout slogans for not screening Hindi movies in karnataka!
2) They are not like Shiv sena's people where they beat students who appear for exams in their state.
3) They are not like tamils who dont respect Hindi language eventhough it is our national language and viceversa the north indians make fun of southern people.

We are Indians only when it comes to watching cricket but we are not united in the least degree.

Dubai is the only city on earth which has developed 100times faster than any city of every think of!. It has tallest building in the world, the biggest luxury hotel ever made on earth is in dubai! and many more... most importanly you can earn 10 times faster than what u earn in India!.

Yes I agree that many had lose jobs in dubai who are in banking sectors ...etc. But Iam sure they would have already saved 70-80lakhs easily and which is sufficient to earn a luxurious life in India..
