This is so weird! Last time, I said I was in Abu Dhabi, cos I often fly back and fro between beijing and Abu Dhabi. And a lot of people jumped out, and insisting on I was not in Abu Dhabi. Even I explained I took a flight there, they said I was not in Abu Dhabi.
I am in UAE for 3 years. If you have lived in UAE, this kind of things happened.
I know, in all the countries, there are good people.
Even I have to face all the cold objections, I will still stick my own belief,I never think facing the facts is something really wrong.
If in life, we can only lead life , spend life like a flower in the green house, be it yourself. In life, like this nature, there are severe storm. So white lies can only comfort a bit, when you wake up, the real life is still there.
I mean this is not from me, but from the taxi driver's mouth. My problem is I let out the secret. Well, I don't have bias against Phillipinas.I know even there might be this kind of things, but I always think it is individual. Thank you again!
I mean in some area, the guys will not attack you,but mainly a disturbing. A good things about UAE, here if you lost your bag, very likely you can find it back.
I lost my bag and one of my friend lost his expensive camera, we both got them back.
Thank you for telling me these. I am a sort of seeing through life. I am not totally disappointed. My problem is that when I hear the talk from the taxi driver, I wrote out directly.
I know in UAE, this is the real life. In fact, even western ladies walk along some area of the street, they might be asked price.You can find on line about this kind of embarassing things. Some people also try to not walk some parts of the UAE.
Even so, UAE still attracts a lot of expats. I like this place!
True that chinese people are good at savings. Some sacrifice their own entertainment to help the whole family. It is more true also in oriental culture than western culture.
I mean here in UAE,I give you a real story: the same person whose mother is a german,and hyer father is from Lebanese. She has 2 passports. When she went to a UAE company,the hR told her : if you apply for the job with your Lebanese passport, we will offer you 10000aeds per month, if you apply this job with your german passport, we give you 20000aeds per month.
Thank you. I agree, now not so much social class.And everybody has their own right to decide for themselves.
In fact,I just happenly took his taxi, and he talked about these things. And I had similar talk with several other taxi drivers.I mean the drivers spoke out these. I think they want to talk sometimes.I understand their family could not get a visa, which is expensive for them, and the guys are having problem.
I just feel it an real side of the UAE life. I just wrote out without giving too deep thought at it.It must touch something.
I split with my ex,cos we don't think the same. He is a british, and he is more laidback, I wanted to work hard, cos we got a daughter. I myself didn't want to give a poor life to my children. Anyway I worked hard, but he preferred to lead a relaxing but not high income. We could not agree with each other.So I have worked hard myself.
I have established my life, coming to UAE, all by myself.
In fact, UAE most labors could not bring their families,wives here, So that the government also know there are this kind of things taking place.
If someone talk about the crimes in any places, please purely read it as an information.But the emirates government these years try to create some chance to entertain the labors. And the government push hard to keep the food price down. , I like this safe place,it is not perfect. But who is perfect?!
I only write about the real life and facts of the labors here. No matter you like it or not, it is their daily life. This is a country mainly based labor's work, and expats.
And any parts of the world, there are this kind of life. You don't like to look at it, please read something more interesting! I am not inviting you to read.
If you have some your own idea, keep it for yourself.
I mean, I happenly met the taxi driver. I mean he moaned about his problem. I just talk about the things he said. I mean in this world there are this kind of things happen.
It is not like we cover our eyes, they don't exist!
This the conversation is from the guy. In emirates, it is common that some philipinas could not earn high salary,so that it happens what the Bangladesh guy words: Philipinas will try to look for labor guys to be short term lovers for money.
If you come to Uae, you will know it is a fact. In some street in Abu Dhabi or Dubai, there are this kind of things.
But the living in emirates is fairly expensive.in a way, I know why they need do this.It is their own choices, I don't want to say things bad about them. For sure, girls from rich family will not do it.
Poverty teaches people what is life in a harsh way/
Guy's Promises in the process of love,it is just like wind, can you grasp wind in hand?It is also like dew on the roses, dew will evaporate in the sun,they will come out another morning.

Difference between Abu Dhabi and Dubai
I actually only wrote out what the guys had said. I am fairly happy with Dubai and Abu Dhabi.I can be stubborn,so i stick to my own idea.
In Abu Dhabi, the life is much quieter comparing with Dubai. But after also staying in Dubai, I can feel why people like it.
I always like the big aquarium in the Dubai mall. And watching the shark swimming inside and other sea fish is fun.
