meeting with high-profile individuals

as all of them r not gonna hear what i say

i prefer spending my 30 min on QL ;)

Yes, that's the bit the company press releases don't tell you ;) So it's a case of swings and roundabouts.

GTL requires more resources to produce the same output, though I've seen reports that say that despite the extra resources needed GTL still produces less emissions during production than oil. I expect there are many reports saying slightly different things though.

Either way, for both GTL and oil the combustion stage carries the much greater impact on the environment than the production stage, so a reduction in emissions during combustion outweighs any increase at production.

tallg - but it takes more energy to produce GTL, which produces more emissions, yes?

How is suggesting the someone is not Qatari racism???

Anyway, to those who want to ask HH what his plan is for Qatar in the coming years, I believe they recently released their "30 year plan" for Qatar.

ngourlay - gtl fuel produces lower emissions when burned compared to oil based fuels, hence it's better for the environment.

r u suggesting that Akbar is not qatari ;)

tsk,tsk,tsk...do i smell racism

I have met the two Qataris on the list and I have a lot of respect for them.

I have also met Akbar, he's just like the wonderful wizard of Oz sitting on his throne, and Qatar Airways would be Emerald City.They would need a toto, and a scarecrow.

Let them be lurking...

you'd b surprised who lurks at QL...

1. HH the Emir Sheikh Hamad bin Khalifa al-Thani

I met him already, but I would like to ask him 'What is your 10 year plan for Qatar?' I want to know.

2. Akbar Al Baker, CEO (Qatar Airways)

Saw him, but I didn't think talking to him would be beneficial.

3. Sheikh Abdulla bin Mohammed bin Saud Al-Thani, Chairman (Qatar Telecom)

Can't think of anything to talk about.

4. Grahame Maher, newly-appointed CEO (Vodafone Qatar)

Can't think of anything to talk about.

5. Barack Obama, President-elect (United States)

Oh, I would have a lot to talk to him about. But I would advise him to take more care of America and the Americans - and stay out of the Worlds business.

1. HH the Emir Sheikh Hamad bin Khalifa al-Thani

Great progress, thanks. (please keep Qataris Happy and keep the benefits we have).

2. Akbar Al Baker, CEO (Qatar Airways)

!#$% You.

3. Sheikh Abdulla bin Mohammed bin Saud Al-Thani, Chairman (Qatar Telecom)

Good luck with the competition, how are you going to deal with it?

4. Grahame Maher, newly-appointed CEO (Vodafone Qatar)

Are you really going to be competing with Qtel, or agreeing on prices? Will you go for an ISP after mobiles and landlines?

5. Barack Obama, President-elect (United States)

What will you do about: Iraq, Afghanistan (Please don't send more troops), Guantanamo, Foreign Oil (Please don't stop buying ours).

I met one of those and he is having my Business card...

Al Baker: Is Qatar Airways over-leveraged compared with other airlines? Why would burning kerosene made from gas be any better for the environment than kerosene made from oil?

Sheikh Abdulla: why does a country that has built most of its roads in the last 15 years not think to bury fibre under the streets while they were being built?

Maher: has the global board of Vodafone signed off on you censoring the internet in Qatar?

1. HH the Emir Sheikh Hamad bin Khalifa al-Thani

VB: Where you see Qatar on the Global map in next 5 years? and How ? Why too much concentration of Economic growth only in Doha, who will ensure to take of other towns such as Wakra, Rayyan, etc, etc........to grow simultaneously? When will your dream to bring democracy (real sense) in Qatar can achieve? blah blah.............

2. Akbar Al Baker, CEO (Qatar Airways)

VB: Congrat for running QA with excellent service...how you will cop-up with Global financial crisis within next 6 to 12 months? Why QA employees not satisfied with the management? I know that you personally ensure quality of human resources, you should a regular moral check by Gallup poll and ensure harmony.

3. Sheikh Abdulla bin Mohammed bin Saud Al-Thani, Chairman (Qatar Telecom)

VB: When we shall be provided with Free internet services 24/7 and

why discrimination in call rates to Asian countries are higher compare to European countries?

4. Grahame Maher, newly-appointed CEO (Vodafone Qatar)

VB: We need you to launch as soon as possible to break Qtel monopoly. Looking for very attractive launch offers.

5. Barack Obama, President-elect (United States)

VB: Congrats for making History bieng elected as first non-white US President; very high expectation from you.

We really wanted to see US CHANGED in near future in terms of Foreign policies (arbitration), Managing US banks meltdown and distribution of bailout packages, abolition of Racism, Unbias media, Gay and Lesbian marriages in Church,

For now these were enough....arrange my appointment; I will keep them engage for over 30 minutes

With the exception of Obama I've met them all, some of them several times. I usually ask if they are having a good day.

well...Obama's chief of staff did fight in the Israeli Defence Force so you could at a stretch say he has an expat advisor ;-)

You're talking about high-profile individuals but you give us no choice. What a stupid offer.

Singaza come one do we discreminate?? hmmm...maybe we are rude, but racial naaaaa....

All of the high profile individuals (except for Obama) has one thing in common, EXPAT advisors…

To the Emir: Qataris needs to treat Expats w/o discrimination regardless of nationality & more incentives please ..... ;)

To Qatar Airways: Expats deserve an annual free flight

To Qatar Telecom: They can afford to subsidise landlines across the board

To Vodafone: Just concentrate on mobile service & promote a luxurious promotion

To Obama: No discriminations to Arab Countries 7 Muslim world

please remember the little people...the ones who make this world work smoothly and support your economy.

Grant me the senility to forget the people I never liked,the good fortune to run into the ones I do,and the eyesight to tell the difference.
