		<description>S, things are different now. Time has changed. Now people work for multinational companies and they get all the benefits. But getting the right job is still a major problem, though.</description>

		<description>Take it from someone who has grown up there. Unless you are working for a firm with a very strong Pakistani presence, you will be treated like shit. For the average expat and local living in Dubai, you are no different from the man that constructed the building you&#039;ll buy or rent your apartment in.

I would not move back unless God willed it... 

But you never know... for some folks money is enough incentive to keep living in that racist and opressive atmosphere...After the thrill has gone, the sweet smells of your Khamsama&#039;s cooking will lure you back... I promise...

Lovies,

Nice blog! Came across it when I was surfing the blogosphere. Read your blog. You have lived in Texas, just like me.  Which school did you attend in Dallas?</description>
