I do believe that a lot of points rasied by expats here in qatar are legimate and need to be looked into. But I hope that westerners realise that it is so easy to offend arabs.
Arabs are really sensitive and can get offened really easily when a foregin come to their country and complain about everything.
In the us or europe this might be ok, but here it can be seen by quite number of people that westerners are acting arrogantly.
My advise to westerners is to try to be mature about it your concerns and try to make sure that you are not offending people.
And regarding the pork thing, I wish if some westerns expats can tell me why koreans,chineese can not eat dogs in the us or europe as they do in their own countries. I am sure it is cause eating dogs is seen as disgusting in the American culture. I think a lot of muslims do see eating pork is disgusting too.
