So what ? ...Good Morning,
I wonder why you posted this,but the interrogative mark you added to the title is probably part of the answer. I notice those so called mass hangings, but I didn't see anything strange or wrong. People are enjoying the only two-days holiday they can have here in Qatar.
I don't think families would be bothered anywhere here in Doha. Anyway, there is always the choice for an adequate place according to your revenue or your social status or according to who you are with :D
I don't know why Qatari people feel '' afraid'' of single expatrites. they take it as a sorta invasion once single expatriats are getting accomodations around :D

These single expatriates are ...These single expatriates are the one responsible for all the road, villa & all the nice building & infrastructure in Doha. Qatar Govt should supply free food & drinks at the corniche & ask those so-call "families" to serve them for 2 days instead.

Hangings on the corniche ...This must be one of the funniest things I have ever seen in a Doha newspaper.! I have emailed it to my friends in South Africa along with photos of the glitzy decorations in City Centre-telling them this is how Eid is celebrated in Doha.

Ooh!!! So I made the ...Ooh!!! So I made the headlines after years of walking this planet..........Coz I was "hanged" there as well!!! (For a while at least). After reading the article I did check, though .....and happy to announce I am still breathing :-P

oh dweller ...That's just too funny. ROFL
Thanks for pointing it out. And, BTW, it hasn't yet been amended in the on-line edition. ROFL
Arona said
Yes, I think so ...Corniche is a good place for our single expates hanging out. whatsoever, I hanged myself out there. sometimes 1 - 2 hours.
hahaha, somehow, I find hanging out on Corniche is very good.
That is my understanding at beginning of seeing the word HANG.

I was worried when I read ...I was worried when I read the title, but then realised it was a mistake made by the newspaper. Phew! Maybe they should send us the articles to proof-read lol.
Moonbeam said
Frog ...I'm glad you understood the article :) My hehehehe translates to LOL, it was just really funny how a simple missing of the word 'out' changed the entire meaning of the article. I, like Cornellian got scared when I first read the title and then had a lovely laugh at the mistake. :)
Have a lovely weekend and let's all get 'hanged' at the corniche! LOL.

All I can say is: PHEW! ...I haven't been THIS relieved to see a typo in a LONG time!
Thanks for sharing Dweller =)
Stay safe all.
