Recently back home in the UK I was questioned by a local about what I do blah blah. I explained how “family day” exists in a lovely, luxury, wonderful country called Qatar and the guy was speechless. I even explained how expats get so used to this lifestyle (only the egoist,
arrogant ones of course) that they don’t even question it. The guy was dumbfounded and so were dozens of others who I spoke to.

It’s laughable, funny, let’s make as much fun as possible as you expats in Doha don’t have to experience the racism so what should you care right?

The sort of language that is used such as “horrid people” “them” “Asians” etc shows that you’re a victim of such a society that breeds racism and hate.

In the west we get hounded by hateful and racist remarks that we are racist against Arabs which I have always disapproved of but in the Gulf (and this is not including real Arab countries where real Arab culture exists) we have not only Arab’s being racist but Westerners being so used the ill treatment of the sub-continent that it is normal to them.

The solution would be to build shopping centers that appeal to them (i.e: LULU, LAMSY, SAFEER & RAMEZ).

Who is “to them”? why not say "ASIANS" who are treated like dirt????? are they not good enough to shop where you do? Of course you’re probably living off oil money – with a comment like this you sound Qatari...Yes? Have you ever thought twice about the damn people building this twisted, irrational, racist, country?

You have no idea how many messages I get from people on this forum who are so happy that someone has a voice for these victims! Believe it or not!
