I recently had the chance to travel by Karwa cab to Hamad Hospital. Finding a cab was easy. didn't take much time. I got in the cab and he asked me to fasten the seat belt which i promptly did. Then he asked me where would I like to go. I told him Hamad hospital. He paused for a second and them he asked where is it.
Next was my turn. I asked him for how long has he been in Qatar and he said two months and I am his sixth passenger since he started driving a cab.
So I had to guide him all the way to Hamad hospital but no complaints. At least I found one. and reached my destination. Getting there was easy leaving Hamad hospital was difficult and it took me one hour to find a can at the Hamad hospital.
The problem here is that everyone is in a rush. they landcruiser owners, the bus drivers everyone is trying to reach their destination in the minimum possible time as it is a matter of life and death. Go on the road and you will see everyone breaking traffic rules. The road have become smaller and the population has increased a lot. so what options do the people and the government has?
Think what would happen if the OLYMPICS are held in Qatar?
The traffic jams would become the norm. there won;t be any super petrol available. Think about it. Is Qatar ready to host the olympics. What about traffic? accomodation? food?
even in the Asian Games they had to pay people to go to the stadiums and watch games. the Schools were paids QR 10 per head to go to the games and free transport. ain;t that something?
