I agree with you, but Governments have the power to create the conditions and educate their citizens and what I see here in Qatar, appears that a lot of negligence and/or denial take place instead.
I can retrieve( and will post the link here) an article from a French journalist (unfortunately it’s in French), that came to Qatar and actually was able to publish in France an accurate and genuine article about issues that Qatari Media, Government or even locals tend to hide and/or show no interest.
How many Qataris you see here in this forum acknowledging that they do have a problem with the desert pollution, drop-off school rates, sub-human labor conditions, danger driving, etc, etc…
In some other countries, if these issues were taking place, you would have the media, the people, the politicians, the comedians, the thinkers, the teachers, etc, etc, etc, talking, writing and debating about these issues. As for here, it’s all about the car I drive that cost me nothing to get it! What kind of society this behavior will generate in the future? Will it be sustainable, once the country is built and the labors and send back? Will it be sustainable once the world becomes a better and more fare place and workers that come here in semi-slave status will no longer need to migrate here?
Who will actually tolerate a society like this, if the financial need will no longer be there?
These are the issues that Qataris and Qatari Authorities should be addressing today, if they want to survive in the long term.
