Qataris once they get to know you will give you the shirt off their back. But also some may not know English so are shy to speak. It depends on where you meet them. But things are changing here due to the wealth and the large influx of foreignors I think they are getting a raw deal in employment so its changing them. They make far less than foreignors but the govt. throws them crumbs to make up for the fact the govt. is sooooooooooooo rich. Imagine living on 5000 QR a month most have to have a second job to make a living. When you see a Qatari driving a great car you can bet he still lives at home. It takes many years for them to save and build a house as they are not mortgaged as they are in the rest of the world its a cash society so when they get married they live at home. Most of what people believe the reality is the opposite.
