huh?!? ......The ban will be for “bad-smelling, poorly-dressed adult men” but it would not affect those who do not fall in this category, a senior executive said.
“The decision was taken after the incessant flow of low-income workers to our mall on Fridays proved to be inconvenient for families,”...
I don't think I smell bad, but I don't know if I wouldn't be considered poorly dressed, I mean WTF?!?!
they're doing this to restrict the "incessant" flow of low-income workers?!?! That's just about the sickest elitist statement I've heard all year (except for that malu fernandez article... or was that last year?) anyway, this really threw me in a fit... got to calm down now.

How about ...Bad smelling but good dressed men. Geez! i prefer good smelling bad dressed men than the other way around especially those wearing checkered long sleeves, hehe

Nothing in life is to be feared. It is only to be understood.

napaka harsh ng ruling ...napaka harsh ng ruling nilang ito. basta ata pumasok ka maalinman sa mga categoryang yun, hindi ka na papapasukin sa mall. maaring BAD-SMELLING ka lang o POORLY DRESSED o kaya BACHELOR, bawal ka na sa mall. doesn't mean u have to be all of d above.

I was in Villagio the night ...I was in Villagio the night before Eid, actually nauna sa akin doon yung mga friends ko, sumunod lang ako. Paglapit ko sa entrance, hinarang ako ng guard (Arabo), sabi Family day daw dahil Eid na, sabi ko bukas pa lang naman ang start ng holiday. Sinabi ko na nasa loob na rin yung mga kasama ko, tawagan ko raw. Kahit anong pakiusap, ayaw talaga so no choice but to call my friend. Habang naghihintay ako sa tabi nya, inoobserbahan ko yung mga pumapasok. Kapag Puti or kalahi, wala lang tuloy-tuloy pero kapag Pinoy or Pana, hinaharang niya. Tinitignan ko sya, di naman sya makatingin. Nung dumating na yung kasama ko, nagparinig na lang ako na "do your job properlÿ" dedma lang sya, di nya siguro na-getz.

'di ko ma-gets...ang ibig ...'di ko ma-gets...ang ibig bang sabihin ng bagong ruling na 'to pwede na sa mga malls ang mga bachelors kahit na 'family day' basta sila ay mabango at maganda ang bihis?
Peppermint said
Nomad-- well un ang sabi but ...Nomad-- well un ang sabi but u see this is Qatar rules always changing... kumbaga depende sa mood!

Kayo naman, ...Alam nyo namang ang mga slaves(workers) ay di pwedeng makisalamuha sa mga maharlikang katutubo dito. I bet sila ang nagpasimuno ng ruling na yon. Mukha daw kasing mababaho ang mga bachelor workers na taga industrial. Sa tingin pa lang daw ay baka madumihan ang mga puting kasuotan nila, hehe

Kung titingnan natin minsan ...Kung titingnan natin minsan lang sa isang linggo either thursday, friday o saturday ang day-off ng mga kapatid nating blue collar workers. They are even coming from as far as Ras Laffan. Any other days they are working under qatar's extreme environment. Not to mention ang stress nila sa mga among di makatao ang trato sa knila.
Kung sa iisang araw na ito na pede silang mag-grocery o mamasyal e pagbawalan pa sila e nakakalungkot naman. Wala na sila halos mapuntahan nito. Bka ang iba ay masiraan na ng bait at mag result pa sa di kanais-nais na mga behaviors na bawal sa batas. Psychologically bka meron effect sa knila ito.
spyro said
Double post ......double post po... hehe
cheritz said
nakakaawa talaga sila..wla ...nakakaawa talaga sila..wla na silang mapuntahang iba na mapaglibangan...kulang ang bansang ito sa recreational areas...
isang araw nga lang silang mkapamasyal o mkapagrocery, may ganyang ruling pa...hayyy naku...
mahirap talagang spelingin ang qatar!!tsk..tsk..tsk..
JaCo said
agreed spyro ...most of the laborers only have friday off. tapos ganito pa gagawin nila #$%^&* naman talaga o. normanila, this is also what I thought when I read the article, I mean for f's sake.
chevydjak said
unreasonable naman ung mga ...unreasonable naman ung mga nasa balita, boblaks talaga di man lang makaisip ng mas magandang dahilan. Descrimination, racism, at kung anu pang synonyms ng 2 word na yan...kasi nga pag puti at kalahi nila ok lang pag ibang lahi nde. Un lang cguro un.
Tama na ung kung friday family day eh di friday lang, I think 6 days a week ok na un sa mga bachelors di ba??? Kung gusto talaga ng mga lokal un.
Di ung kung anu-ano pang dinadahilan. Opinyon lang po.

Saka pano kaya nila ...Saka pano kaya nila madidifferentiate un mababaho sa hindi? Ano un maghihired sila ng taga-singhot! (Perfect candidate for this position ang mga addict!) lol!=D Naku tatagal kaya un & magkano kaya ang salary offer? Dapat kasama din sa salary offer ang Insurance baka kasi 2 days lang patay na un kakasinghot ng toxic air! hahahahhahahhaha!=D

Peppermint said
or maybe if ayaw talaga ...or maybe if ayaw talaga nilang sumabay ang mga ordinary workers sa pamamasyal during friday & saturday sa mall baguhin nila un day off ng mga ito. Lets say Monday or Wednesday para naman kahit paano makapagEnjoy naman ang mga workers na to' di un puro trabaho na lang! Ano ba tingin nila sa mga tao alipin!?
chevydjak-- korak ka dyan di man lang nag-isip ng kahit anong alibi (kahit obvious naman na un din un) para naman kahit paano di nakakasama ng loob or masakit pakinggan diva? hay......

Saka pansin ko din mahilig sila sa alahas! Bata pa lang dami ng alahas na suot. Sabi nga ng friend ko imbes na jewelries ang bilhin nila bakit kaya di sila bumili ng deodorant & sabon at maligo everyday ng magbago naman ang mga amoy nila!

evap08 said
Oo nga!!! ...Kawawa talaga kaming mga bachelors dito sa Qatar. Discriminated. Anyway for me it doesn't matter. Just go on straight course and hit the mark.
Peppermint said
evap08-- maswerte ka pa din ...evap08-- maswerte ka pa din kesa sa ibang lahi friend kasi atleast kaw di ka lang makakapasok because ur bachelor un iba kasi kaya banned sa malls due to amoy nila diva?
Besides pwede ka pa naman makapasok tyempo ka na lang ng kababayan na pwede mong sabayan papasok sa malls.
“Learn from yesterday, live for today, hope for tomorrow.”
chevydjak said
korekek...malaking check na naman!!! ...kmi ganun, pag may nakita kaming kabayan n di makapasok...lalabas ako or kahit sino sa min tapos daan kami ibang pinto and presto nakapasok c kabayan!
May bata kasi kami eh kaya napakadaling pumasok. Just ask some Filipinas....am sure makakapasok ka...
