    The 2 reasons why for me it's a no go :
    1. Too much air pollution, from fossil fuels but also sand. I heard so many testimonies of people who got sick while arriving in Dubai. Apparently almost everyone has health problems, and even while living far from city center. There is too much sand, which makes it hard. And how are they gonna do if one day Asia develops and they don't have all this cheap handforce in order to clean sand ?
    2. Abuse of human rights. Some would argue it's in every country. But there it seems to go to an extreme level.

      @@elliotoliver8679 Honnestly despite it requires work to deal with, I don't believe sand is the biggest drawback, but rather the fact that due to desert climate and absence of wind, the pollution from cars stagnate more in the air than if you live by the ocean.
      If one day cars run on hydrogen/electricity and migrant workers live in decent conditions (sharing a clean room at max 2-3 instead of sometimes 8-10) then it could become one of the best countries of the world.

    Hi there. I’ve never thought about moving to Dubai. I do have a daughter that is affiliated with a major American Airline. She thinks the world of Dubai because of all the Beautiful buildings and environment there.
    You have done a fantastic job on giving the reasons why we should not move to Dubai. We have never been to the middle east or Africa. Hopefully we will plan a rip to the Mother Land. Possible 🇲🇱 Mali, Nigeria 🇳🇬, and Egypt 🇪🇬.
    Thank you so much for sharing this valuable information. I can feel your experience and I know by the way you speak you suffered a great deal. I see your a very strong woman and God with definitely with you.

    Not a big fun of Dubai.
    1. Weather is terrible esp in summer -you can barely have any outdoor activities
    2. It has no natural beauty and everything is man made. Just because it is the tallest or biggest doesn’t mean it’s the best
    3. Dubai is still a developing city on many levels esp in terms of software. It’s hard to specify but if you’ve lived in the west you may know what I mean
    4. The whole city is way too material - it is all about fancy cars and big brands which I find shallow and vain
    5. It is true you may not pay tax but you also pay more for other things -veggies, chocolate, cheese and other things are way more expensive because they have to be imported
    6 Dubai is extremely boring- because no outdoor activities is possible you cannot take a walk, you cannot picnic by the beach, you cannot surf. Weekend leisure is going to a shopping mall😢

    It’s so weird they are an extreme minority in their own country and just walk/drive around and don’t interact with the MILLIONS of immigrants in their country.
    Incredibly strange.

Well, I would like to hear the good things about Dubai from you as well. Anyways, like you said you personal opinion. Life will not also be the same for any of us, it's a matter of us praying to God to lift us to where we belong. Folks also have it tough whether in Europe, UK or US. There are some of 'bad' guys here in UAE. Hmmm. Make I know talk. Our guys are in SEHA, in top hospitals(Optometrists, Microbiologist s,Nurses inclusive, of course they are not much but at least we have a few) lecturers and researchers in their Universities, Engineers in ADNOC. And the good thing now for them is they have the Golden visas. Most of the people who have it a bit tougher are probably some low paying job seekers just like the one you showed. In the end sha, people should be well informed before leaving for any country. If you are not a shrewd business person, not a professional (tier 1 and 2), and some others I can't remember for now then come to the UAE at your own volition.

    I disagree, overall, with this video. She does make mention or some good point however. As someone born and raised here in America, America and a lot of other western countries are so many downfalls, even a few that dubai "supposedly" have. There is discrimination in these western countries as well here, I argue more so. America and other western countries are on a downward trend, economically, morally, etc. Plus dubai, isn't the only emirate. Most people love abu dhabi for example. It is the most expensive, but there is more opportunities there for work than dubai. A lot of the bigger companies will even pay for accommodation and perhaps other things in their packages based on their offer as well. Western countries is very taxing as well and it is becoming more of an issue to raise your children here (especially if you want to instill good moral values). I can go on and on. America is way more expensive I would argue. Groceries, gas, etc. for example. No matter where you live, you have to live within your means. Of course it is going to seem to be expensive if you live outside that.
    There are a lot of western people increasing leaving their western countries (US, UK, etc.) to work and reside in the UAE. I perfer Abu Dhabi over dubai personally. It is more chill and the environment is more suitable for me personally.
    Like I said you don't have to live in dubai. There is abu dhabi, fujairah (significantly more affordable), sharjah (more affordable), ajman (more affordable), Ras Al Khaimah, Umm Al Quwain (more affordable)
    Side note: Al Ain isn't an emirate, it is a part of Abu dhabi.

    Dubai is a lovely place. Each city 🌆 or country has its good and bad . No one city is 💯 good . Depends on someone's destiny if God purposed to bless you in Dubai then going to UK or US is useless. Ive personally thrived here and know many Africans who have bought properties here and setting up a business here. If you hate and talk bad about a place how do you expect to thrive while there ???? Fyi just my opinion 😅
