Doha Diary
It's a land where petrol is cheaper than waterWhere the Arab male reigns supreme and women hide their Zara and Mango clothes under their black robes
Where the largely South Asian and Eastern European workforce slog under the watchful eyes of their local bosses,
Where only white expatriates, who enjoy tax-free income and large mansions, are accorded grudging respect from their Arab paymasters, who view themselves as divine descendants.
Where the Emir has the final say
But
It's also a place of peace and tranquility
An alluring place of breath-taking desert beauty
A place of fine service and warm hospitality
A place with a rich cultural heritage, where East meets West
A place of enchanting tales and fond memories
Welcome to Arabia.
