Offices and schools in Gulf countries start 2 hours earlier than everywhere else in the world. I dont know for what reason. While waking up a child at 5 in the morning is actually BARBARIC, its impact on adults is no less. Waking up early in the morning and rushing to toilet, rushing for breakfast and rushing to office is really un-healthy. It puts undue strain on your body and mind and makes you age faster. Another un-pleasant outcome of starting work early is, people finishing their toilet duties at the work place. It's high time gulf countries re-think their work and school timings bearing in mind the health impact.
