A different lifestyle?

Hey, this is my first topic! :P
Anyway, I think we all have noticed how Qatar has changed during the last 10 years...do you think it's for the best? I mean, many say it's affecting Qatar's real culture and that it's a Western wanna-be country now. What do you think about this?

Qatar nowadays ...The only good thing i can see with Qatar development there is more shops and cafes now, more places to go shopping.
But the rest are sucks ... especially traffic and housing.

Ya...the traffic sucks! I ...Ya...the traffic sucks! I went to Mint today, it took me 20-30 mins to get there!!
About Virgin...hell ya! it rocks!
Do you guys agree that they want Doha to be the 2nd Dubai? I hear it all the time.

No, I don't think the plan ...No, I don't think the plan is for Doha to be a 2nd Dubai. First of all that's a no-no in the Arab psyche. Second and without going into the nitty gritty details I feel a strong aversion on the part of the Qataris to have the same openness that is characteristic of Dubai. Hell, even next door neighbor Abu Dhabi doesn't want to emulate Dubai.
Having said that Dubai knew and knows that it isn't the major oil producer that its neighbors are and sought alternative means to generate income.
