Fliion,
Fair comment. Had I been back to Pprune earlier, though, I would have commented along the lines of Odin's Raven where it's not really comparing apples with apples.
As an aside, if you go to OECD Social Progress Index you'll see some interesting data. UAE: Foundation of Wellbeing -"No data". UK, access to basic knowledge - "98.46." I think those stats tell the real story of Dubai vs Western World.
