Come on, MD - have a heart!

These guys have worked long and hard to establish their fabric businesses, but they're not in a situation like we would be in the US or the UK where we would have insurance. . .so all their hard work just went up in flames - their means of supporting their families, gone.

The wealthy residents depend on the fabric souks to find the gorgeous fabrics for party dresses, to have their custom-made abayas made, etc - and now that resource is gone. It would be a win-win for the Emir to help out, and I do hope he will; I can't imagine that he'd turn a blind eye :)
