10th floor...my conclusion from your comment is that, although you have elected to move to this country, you have very little knowledge of local people or the culture...perhaps you are one of the many who live within their own culture here in Qatar and don't bother to understand the country they live in. If you took the time to get to know locals you will find that they have a very strong sense of charity and feel a sense of responsibility for those less fortunate than themselves. Yes we all agree that the salary structure needs to change and this process has started but on a person to person level I have seen countless times locals not only giving money but many other things including sending money to their families back in their own country and helping their relatives to come here to earn a living. I suggest that you start to learn the local language and culture. You could invite locals to your house and visit their house where you will see firsthand their generousity. Perhaps you missed the Gulf Times this week where HE the US Ambassador thanked Qatar for its charitable gesture of giving millions of dollars in aid for the victims of Hurricane Katrina? Please don't assume that locals don't care! Get to know them. You're in their country after all. Don't just come here to chase the dollar.
