Well, from the sounds of things you are trying to be heard with regards to things you see here.... and get threatened too.... lol.... had a friend threatened with deportation a few weeks ago....

My consideration is the animal laws in the country - we have a rescue shelter that is still, after 5 years of being operational, waiting for charity status.... we get pushed pillar to post, see this person, see that person... many people come down to the shelter and promise to help... but nada, nothing... and its frustrating...

We get held up and praised in meetings with international visitors as "our (qatar) animal shelter" by the bigwigs, but when we go to them for assistance, no one seems to be able to help....

The wheels of government turn slowly, we know, but 5 years slowly?

In a more personal capacity, I love it here... yes I b*tch about the driving and other things, but its nothing more than I wouldn't do in my own country... When I leave Doha, I cannot wait to come back.... this is my home now, for as long as they let me stay...

"if you don't like the heat... get out of the kitchen... but stop trying to fan the flames before you leave... it will burn you on the a** as you go through the doorway...." ME
