Qatar Is A Curious Mix....
I put an excerpt from an article which I am quite fond of and which I find very interesting. In the following paragraphs, he had made a good write up of the things I care about in Qatar; governance, politics, world relations, policies, faith, rights of the country and lastly, defended the social way of life in Qatar (i know the singles are not happy about this). Though yes, of course lacks all the other things but this is a PR article under economics section, people-- so yeah..this is just as good as it gets. :)
"Qatar is a curious mix. It hosts three US military bases and was the staging ground for the Gulf War. Yet it pursues a Scandinavian foreign policy, acting as mediator for the perma-conflicts of Africa and the Mid-East.
It shares the Wahhabi faith of the Saudis, but not their absolutism. Women can drive and vote. Al Jazeera broadcasts uncensored from Doha. Foreigners may drink alcohol at a few hotels, and discreetly at home. Yet there are none of Dubai’s louche nightclubs."

He probably means this
God I hope that's what he meant!!!! Cause otherwise I'd be scared Diamond would punch him. :P
I think he means that both Qatar and Hannah have small bumpy bits which help enhance the overall image of the whole.
Did you just compare Qatar to Hannah Montana UkEng?
BritExpat.. yes Best of Both worlds.. That's like Hannah Montana..

HE WHO DARES WINS
I think Qatar's doing an excellent job. Sure, it's not perfect, nowhere is, but the point is they are trying and for the most part succeeding. I'm very happy to be living here.
Qatar is exactly where it wants to be.
Peace.
