I have friends too and friends of friends working in Dubai. I see them happy working out there and comfortable. I think Dubai is known as good for investment in terms of business, they have good economy and most fast phase among the other countries. Both tourist spots and business in Dubai is a good investments, from beautiful cities and buildings. And also, Dubai has its restrictions, I saw one of my friend having a vacation in one place in Dubai, I think it's a sacred place, she is wearing whole dress covering her face too. I am not sure if it's necessary but, that's how you have to respect Dubai, especially their belief. I like Dubai because they have big beautiful buildings that anyone wanted to visit. Either for tourist or business or you are planning to work in Dubai, it's a good choice.
