By modern wonderer

how do you imagine the gulf region in half a century , what dubai or doha will look like in 50 years ?
still oil ? more traffic? what the temperature will be like ? what about demography , arabs will still be a minority ?

especially when all the hardworking expat have left to leave the locals to run the day to jobs in this country.. Imagine hey.. Mr Abdullah bin someone bin someone thing driving a taxi. Just cant even think what it would be like in this part of the world without the expats????

Moving to the UK in the 1st decade of the of the 19th century (1800s) would have been a wise move...

Moving to the USA in the 1st decade of the 20th century (1900s) would have been a wise move...

Moving to the Gulf in the 1st decade of the 21st century will be a wise move as well (inshaAllaah).

It would be impossible to sustain and manitain the big buidlings and the infrastructure that they are creating. Maintenance and sustaining the assets will be more expensive then to build them in the first place..

Sorry, couldn't resist :)

"Imagine there's no Heaven

It's easy if you try

No hell below us

Above us only sky

Imagine all the people

Living for today

Imagine there's no countries

It isn't hard to do

Nothing to kill or die for

And no religion too

Imagine all the people

Living life in peace

You may say that I'm a dreamer

But I'm not the only one

I hope someday you'll join us

And the world will be as one

Imagine no possessions

I wonder if you can

No need for greed or hunger

A brotherhood of man

Imagine all the people

Sharing all the world

You may say that I'm a dreamer

But I'm not the only one

I hope someday you'll join us

And the world will live as one "

Imagine- John Lennon

Nothing is more relaxing than flying like an Eagle in Heaven !!

GOD knows but I think it will be a very nice region! very advanced and luxurious! but 100 years later .... it might vanish koz of the amazing fuel extraction from the deep underground!
