Can some one clarify this point?

Straight Arrow
By Straight Arrow

One western expat was walking on the cornich or some where in Doha, the important thing is that this western expat passed an Indian and then the indian spit on the right or left.
The western expat seems that he noticed this more than one time, so he asked why Indians are doing like this?
The answer which this western expat received was that:
There are some Indians believe that all western expat as evils or devils.
Is this true?
Off course not all Indians has the same belief.

Straight Arrow...its simble....the Indian guy was eating Pan...betle leaf...

He could also have been from Sri Lanka, Myanmar, Cambodia, the Solomon Islands, Thailand, Philippines, Laos, and Vietnam as it is popular there also.

About Paan:

The North Indian 'saada' pan has just a filling of cardamom, betel nut and cloves whereas the South Indian beeda is filled with grated coconut and sugar. On the other hand the North Indian Sweet pan is filled with dates, gulkand (rose petal and honey) and jellied fruit.

The best pan in Karachi is sold outside Bandu Khan's famous restaurant and was sold for ten rupees in 1992.

but maybe you will find new friends and new websites. Plus marriage has a tendency to change peoples' likes and dislikes too.
