Besides all what has been discussed, weather, lack of infrastructures, unreliablility in meeting targets, etc… we can’t overlook at the national conservative culture, totally adverse to the typical World Cup’s celebration environment.
Every event has its inherent atmosphere.
Some societies can handle almost anything (to the extreme of porn festivals) some conservatives can’t handle any, with liberal, free and open mind festivity behaviors.
The World Cup does occur in an atmosphere that is not usually welcome in the Qatari society. Is Qatar going to change its social ethic rules in 12 years or is it willing to display its hypocritical face?
How come the Qatari Authorities choose to close their eyes to this issue just for this occasion and remain in silence about what will they do to impose (or to loose) what they already impose now to all expats?!
Integrity is missing here, but I am not surprised!
