According to the Dubai Corporation for Tourism & Commerce Marketing, Dubai currently has over 612 hotels offering more than 85,000 rooms. The Dubai government is hell-bent on monitoring those Dubai hotels very closely to guarantee they offer the best services possible in their class.
Dubai also listens to any complaints by any hotel guests, and if the management did not remedy such problems, they are slapped with hefty fines or worse, face having their license canceled. All of this leads to the high-standards and pampering services offered at majority of Dubai hotels.

Due to the high interest of expensive cars in Dubai, this auto show attracts major car and super car manufactures, tuning companies, Antique Auto and Classic Car Restorers, Automotive restoration providers, a slew of motorcycle manufacturers, and other related companies.

It wasn’t the weekend thankfully, so the crowd was just right. Funny enough, while strolling through the halls, I ran through a small crowd and lots of mobile phones taking photos. It was the entourage of Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum (The Ruler of Dubai) who was visiting the Dubai Motor Show, with his son Shk. Hamdan, crown prince of Dubai.

To my surprise, and as I discovered later on after meeting him face to face and running through thorough interrogations by yours truly, he knew a lot about video games.
In fact, he was a hardcore gamer not a fake one. Something very rare for a PR expert in Dubai!
When I asked him about anything, he would get to the bottom of it or simply say I don’t know.
I always liked to work with a PR man whom I can trust and rely on. His name is…
In the past, the viewer was the passive part of the TV-deal. He / she used to accept whatever the TV-station has to offer him / her. When the Satellites started offering more alternatives, that model didn’t change much. Enter the internet and that scenario has been totally changed.
Now, the viewer has the upper hand, he now has online services all lined up to help him watch whatever he wants or chooses.
In the early days of online streaming in the Middle East, the viewer had icflix. (Wikipedia link)
