Well said QS
No one is questioning what expat women wears at. Hotels , resturants or clubs, but recently women in hot pants & mini skirts very often seen in malls, grocery shops and even goverment establishments ! Of course there would be a backlash
Any one who lives here for a while , knows there won't be a lucid guideline. For dress code other than what's already written in travel guides
It's all about courtesy...
