This video has been produced to present a negative picture of a lovely country. It shows garbage lying uncollected in the city. Frankly, there is more garbage to be seen littering the streets of other cities in several countries including mine, than Doha. The video shows construction waste getting dumped. With Qatar going through a phase of rapid expansion, to get such shots on camera is not very difficult. What the producer of the video has deliberately avoided showing is how quickly the waste get removed from the sites in a professional way. The video shows dust on seats at bus stops and on billboards. With Qatar being a country which regularly faces high winds, dust, and sandstorms, one is bound to find dust everywhere. It appears the video was recorded after one such storm had taken place. The recorder of the video is probably unaware that billboards get wiped regularly usually late at night and for that he would need to stay awake. Lastly, regarding the water flowing in taps in Qatar. Couple of years back The Peninsula had printed a report showing the chemical composition of water flowing in the taps of homes in Qatar. The report showed that the tap water was better for human consumption than bottled water that is available in the market. I think muddy water was deliberately put in the water cooler to allow for the filming of this video. The entire video shows totally a biased version of life in Doha purposely made to leave a wrong impact on the minds of viewers.
