Once again the Qatar Open for ladies tennis will put Qatar in the top of the world. They will bring the top 8 tennis players.

They introduced an entrance fee for this tournament due to the many residents wants to see their favorite playres in action. But, there is a racial descrimination that will separate asians and europians, just like family days in malls.

Last wednesday, in City Center for a que hoping for a lower box ticket is a big shame. When my turns come i ask the lady for a lower box ticket for 2 persons for the opening day, 27th, then checking the computer for the availability and found to be only one. Another lady convince me to the higher box, then i took it. But, behind me was all europians, they easily got their tickets exactly what i want. This tradition is still practice even the event was free in previous years. Cheers to all your comments on this

some thinks that one nation is better than other...

some thinks that people from a special nation deserves the best...

there is nothing like that....

all are born in the same way...

its the situation which makes him differ from other...

all are humans...

and no human is better than the other...

let me get this right. Was the person who was selling the ticket a philipino or not? Most of the time I have bought tickets for the Tennis the salesperson has always been a kabayan..
