1) people saying that they won't buy a house in Qatar because they have to pay 1,000QR for a visa.... if you have the money for a house... you can pay the visa... or even if you don't want to... in the UK it's 2,100 QR for an RP and 1,200 in Canada for example.
2) Most of these price hikes won't even affect people, yet people love to complain.
3) People fail to see that this rises (which are no more than 10 pounds on average) are STILL better than paying the extortionate income tax of many countries.
4) somehow people think that there is connection between rental fees and these fees. One goes to a greedy landlord, one goes to a government... no connection there...
For so long Qatar has been a very cheap place to live in. It was a great time. Did people think that it was going to last forever? What fuels development? MONEY.
It's like being given a free car and then complain that there's no petrol in it.
