Du need not to spend a penny on marketing and advertising for a. A lot of Etisalat customers are looking for an alternative b. Du is the alternative. Instead, the guys need to invest their money on the network infrastructure that fails to meet the basic expectations. UAE residents and visitors aren’t spending all their time in the city, where signal coverage is -only sometimes- at it’s full. You see dear Du, we go out to the country side, to the desert, the izba, the farm and the mountains, and we expect our mobiles work at all these places. We also love travelling, du u don’t serve me well when I’m abroad either. Please improve before it is too late for you.

Thank you very much.

think once- I want to get into the webby awards for fb’s website, but I am not sure if there’s a copyright infringement for the Wilhelmina cover photo or not…

second thought- you don’t like criticism? don’t publish your work.

thinking thrice- What’s wrong with men putting make up? I don’t get what the difference is? Girls allowed to fake their looks while men are not? We all love pretty. Why not?

quattra thoughta- maybe the whole design contains copyright material. I’ve done a lot of copyright research in the past. All I remember is “open-rights”.

thought 5- probing memory to remember copyright law. No response.

final thought- criticism is not my favorite feedback either, but some one got to take it

On Mishal Al Gergawi's "Abu Dhabi, too fast, too curious"

Thu, 22 Oct 2009 23:00:00 +0400

Dubai’s nationals, had historically been fishermen and traders - trades that demanded interaction with others- found the emirate’s development bewildering, how will Abu Dhabi’s nationals, who historically were farmers and sheep herders trades that demanded little interaction with others - find their city’s development?

As posted in Kipper.com

Okay I have to start with this: that is total FISH!

LOL seriously Mr. Gergawi? Now your whole interesting article with all its facts, figures and numbers poured down to that very question that shows how improperly educated you are with no awareness and no willingness to research a simple topic as the historical differences between Dubai and Abu Dhabi?

Fail.

First of all, Abu Dhabi, Dubai and all of the emirates and cities have similar backgrounds: a tribal system, and people went up and down the map following water resources mainly. This tribal system is extinct but the tribes (families) still exist in case you have not noticed, and each family carries & transcends values to its inheritors, no matter what city they chose to live in after the union.

Secondly, in every emirate, there’s a simple system where people went to the sea for pearlhunting, trading and exporting, e.g. from AD: Albumhair (also in Dubai), Qubaisat, etc.

Most would own a land in the non-coastal cities, like Al Ain, Hatta, and Liwa for summer, and in winter they return to the gulf. For example, a family in Dubai will have a summer house in Al Ain, and will be visiting once per year. Trade & pearlhunting was a winter job for most of the families at the time.

There are big names from both cities who were known for successful trading businesses reaching Iran and India prior to union, like Khalaf bin Abdulla bin Otaiba, coming from Abu Dhabi, and some successful names in Dubai today come originally from Al Ain, like Al Futtaim. Plus more big family names who had been successful in the UAE: Abu Dhabi & Dubai came from Iranian backgrounds.

Thirdly and most importantly, who said that historical terms can determine whether a man will succeed in a trade or not? That is basic naivity Mr Mishal.

“Interacting with others”

Poor Abu Dhabi government, they didn’t consider that.
