i didnt refer to businessmen or families who live here..i said businessmen who come to conferences are considered tourists as they come for wut is called MICE tourism (tourism for meetings, conferences, exhibitions), and by families i meant those who come to visit their families here in doha...

yes tourism is something completely different from making qatar a better place...but based on research done by many scholars tourism has increased entertainment in countries, revitalized tradition and folkore performances, in other countries it has negatively affected the socio-cultural characteristic of the country. what im lookin into is the attitudes of residents here in Doha towards the tourism development taking place(and there is tourism development).

p.s. if i am not credible as a student then my research proposal wouldnt have been approved by my committee members,so please do not insult me by saying so. Thank you
