End of Jan marked decorated vehicles in the UAE-many private cars sporting the national flag, some a football at the back, some with the rulers's pics and some others with stars and hearts stuck on the bodies ....There is sudden outflow of LOVE towards the nation...
I don't follow Football anymore and hence I was unaware of the recent win of UAE team at the 18th Gulf Cup championship.
What surprises me is, I have not seen such celebration by the locals even during National Day! Having lived here for most of my life, not 1 National Day all these 24 yrs has brought up decorated cars or flags.....So what is it that is being celebrated???One historic win in a game of football is more important than the success the nation has achieved? A team of 15 (or maybe more) is more important than all the lives that served the nation to bring about what it is today, possibly even the better coaching the National team received....
I dont get it...Do you?
As usual, Funny world we live in....
Nevertheless, good going for the football team!
