Vote for Qatar.. Have Your Say !!

congrats!!!!!!!!!!

Qatar 2022!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hip Hip Hurray! 9 cheers for Qatar!

Yes the eligible bachelor must win the bid!

Let us all pray that eligible bidder to win 2022 ( QATAR ).

We seen 16 th Asian games and let us see this 2022 in Qatar.

Yes we faced Rent hike.But at the same time many of our brothern got jobs here.

So let us pray god for the eligible bidder to win WC 2022( QATAR please god )

And I have repeatedly stated that I had good experiences with many Qataris. But you are bashing Asians, in your attempt to suck up to Qataris and since many of my friends are Asian, I find that offensive (and hypocritical).

What does ANY of this have to do with them hosting the WC?

I agree, you came on job offer like every one. But did you not applied for it? It was 100% our decision to come here. Why complaint. If not happy, doors are open.

I have never attacked my country man but I do not want to talk against Qataris as we always had good experience with them, may be you not but for your sake, we can not change our views.

We find Qatar more peaceful then any Asian country and would love to stick here irrespective of money.

we are all here because we need each other... our skills against their money...

You are really a housewife because you don't know how it works outside...

yeah me too Lost....hope I'm wrong! As an ex-pat I hate to think whats going to happen to rents, and forget salary increases.

I have got a bad feeling about this bid! :0(

Man what planet are you on Hemlata? You are so far in lala land that you must need oxygen...stick to been a idle housewife, sounds like you are good at that..

No the Emir did not "invite" me. I came with a job offer like everyone else. Accepting a job offer doesn't mean that I become blind, deaf and dumb, like apparently you are. What is your point?

Are you saying that Asians treat other Asians badly, but Qataris always treat you equally? You don't really expect anyone to believe that, do you? Are you that afraid of having to go back home to India that you attack your own countrymen and kiss the arse of any qatari? Must suck to be you. ;)

Coming to Qatar was our choice. When you are in Rome, we have to live like Roman.

Where there is no discrimination amongst local & expat?

Australia - British are rather more bad I believe.

Indians are very safe here and we never felt any bias here.

When I cross road, a Qatari stops vehicle and with respect allow me to cross. Asian rather shows irritation.

Vote for our Qatar

Pilgrim, shhhhh.

Don't let my boys know. Otherwise this football Mum will be forced to camp outside these hotels...lol

Ice Maiden, hang out at the W or the Four Seasons the next time they hold one of these exhibition games, I've seen Beckham, Kaka, Ronaldo and Pele. Almost knocked Kaka over coming out of an elevator last year.

One plus point of having 2022 in Qatar would be I might get to see football greats relatively close up, rather than having to travel half way across the world :)

@ ex.expat,Hemlata signs off as idle(but ideal) housewife...go figure! :)...

I support Qatar 2034 bid.

"Hemlata said All Indian QLer ...

Qatar is of the Indian, by the Indian and for the Indian.

Support Qatar.

Qatar deserves."

I guess you have forgotten family days, nationality-based salaries and the bias against Asians that heavily prevails here...

Some official said:" The presentation cannot make you win the bid, only lose it." If the short presentation is all Qatar has to offer, it won't be enough to win. Qatar is still considered the ONLY bidder with a HIGH RISK according to the executive summary of FIFA's final report. Why choose the 'High Risk' bidder, if there are four at 'low risk?' Any clues?

"2 pm" ????

hay guys see u 2pm @Souq. Waqif

I hope this is the moment for Qatar - I truly hope that they will win this as I am sure they will do a fabulous job in making this a true and memorable event for the world - Good Luck Qatar!!!!!

polkadots,

Do you know that none of the marketing was actually done by Qataris?

The short movies are Australian production!

Money sure buys almost everything. It didn’t buy talent or skills but it can fool those who don’t know better!

Isn’t it sad when money is the only advantage? Particularly when this money is not even earned as the result of personal efforts!

Wow! ALL CHEERS TO THE QATAR TEAM!!! for their mind blowing presentation, Both the HH s came out as great orators and statesmen, now how many royals in the ME region can boast that?

The short films were excellent and goes right to the heart of the viewer, so does the question when, What ever be the result, Qatar’s WILL BE THE BEST DONE BID of 2010, talk about Morgan Freeman losing pages and mumbling on stage, C'mon US after berating the whole of Asia for professionalism, is this what you could drum up for something imp as 2022 Bid? or is the bid not so important?????

Hemlata,idle housewife...& it shows!...'ideal' is purely relative...but at least you're honest so points for that...

i checked the official page of FIFA. i learned that Sheikha Mossa was the one presenting the Qatar bid along with a Prince. I did not get his name but i'm pretty positive that he is the son of Sheikha Mossa who graduated last year (or maybe this year) at Georgetown Univ School of Foreign Service. am i right? i can not forget the picture of him being kissed by his mom, Her Highness, on his graduation in front of other graduates. it was so sweet..

Qatar is of the Indian, by the Indian and for the Indian.

Support Qatar.

Qatar deserves.

i think deserving country will win,

i,on the other hand fully agree with you but having said that,i think we should pray that the FIFA voters vote fairly instead of thinking of their personal bank balances...

@ soniya,how could you even think such a thing???...nobody deserves to host this tournament except Qatar,because you live in Qatar,Qatar is feeding & clothing you,so you must blindly support Qatar,as unrealistic as their bid might be...is probably what our friend Xceptionalgreat & his bunch of "wannabeqatari arse kissers" will say to you...LOL!!! :)...

Diplomacy ??????

Be firm. Vote for Qatar.

No need to pray for deserving country, if it deserves automatically they will get it, and by the way Qatar is our second home, so we are all praying for qatar to get as our country is not participating in it.

soniya,

that's how it should be!

How about saying this way : Let's pray for the deserving country to win the bid for WC 2022...:)))

I'll go for Qatar...

& U????????

Since my country is not a bidder, I'll go for Qatar...as my 2nd home.

@ genesis,was thinking the same thing,no going out tonight...thanks for the tip...

in any case, it’s best to avoid Al WAAB & Corniche tonight to not get stuck in traffic

lets us pray Qatar to win the bid!

@ ex.expat,"wannabeqataris" a.k.a "arsekissers"! :)...

I am all for it...not for any reason in particular just that I would then be able to see a few games as I ain't flying to any other country.

flan,

you are confusing the times.

The decision is announced at 3pm in Zurich, which means 6pm in Qatar!

@ genesis,i believe flanostu was in sarcasm mode with that one! :)...trade ties mean money,no silly World Cup bid is going to affect that as you correctly pointed out...

dear all.............

Just only hours to go for the bid result. We should strongly pray for Qatar to Won the Bid for hosting the world cup. With this not only Qatar will shine in the map of the world and people around the world came to know the Islamic culture but also can have a lot of benefits to the expatriates for better salaries, save job and great vacancies...

If we have it, just after 10 years, Qatar changes from deserts to sky scrapers and a good destination for tourist like now as Dubai...

I request you all to cross your finger and pray to Allah to have this bid in Qatar's bag...

We, the expatriates, may not be here after 10 years, but we can say Qatar got because of our bid and prayers.............

it's worth mentioning that the short films showcased in Qatar presentation directed by Australian Derin Seale

I m actually more keen on reading qler's comments after тнє results

Can't imagine how мaηy forum topic's will be created Ŋ banned

What about trying for 2034 WC.

Will be first...second at worst.

Qatar holds a strong economic relationship with all contender bidding nations , and it won't jeopardize that over hosting a tournament

thanks azi, yeah i'll either be at paloma or the irish for the announcement.

i should be nicely inebriated by 9pm given the decision is at 6pm.

I'm thinking of going to PALOMA tomorrow night for the announcement...just for the curiousity of it.

Don't worry.. it will never happen.. its Qatar in 2022 !! :-)

immediately following the announcement of the non-Qatar winning bid it's expected the Qatari government will declare the winning country be rated as an "enemy country", therefore trade sanctions and visa restrictions will apply to all affected citizens & country specific businesses from the 3rd Dec.

It's so simple then.. you should start a forum topic to vote for the country of your choice !!

But you prefer to behave like a Peeping Tom..lollzzzz.. poor u !!

Yes, it does make a big difference..

Otherwise, the bidding nations wont be spending millions on PR campaigns..

My life is full of joy.. but your life seems to be worthless.. that's why you are poking your nose into the affairs which are not of your interest !!

So my little vote for Australia won't mean anything.

BTW, Mr. "exceptionalgreatwannabeqatari", this topic does interest me. Thus my nose poke. I just don't necessarily agree on the proper final outcome but as a long time football fan you can be sure I am interested in where the WC is held.

They are talking about something called soccer on that page.. What's that?

Do you really think voting on a website is going to make a difference?

Is your life so empty here?
