This is another “Good idea” from someone trying to justify his position somewhere in the government. No thought has been put into its impact or implementation. As of yesterday there was no visible enhancement of the infrastructure in the arrivals at. EGHQ for customs to manage this new process due for implementation in a weeks time. At peak times upwards of 1500 crew per hour pass through the arrivals. If just 1% are required to submit to this idiotic process the congestion will bring the place to a grinding halt. The additional staff required given the productivity of the average Enarati will have to be ten fold the current allocation. But Im sure they have thought this out right?

I will follow WKs example and bring back a few bottles of tap water every trip for them to seize and store on my behalf. A rather childish way to deliver a message but one has to take into consideration who you’re dealing with.
