depends on what you mean by 'civilized'?
UAE is one of the safest places on earth - mainly due to their harsh penalties for crime. So if by 'civilized' you mean a country where you are more likely to get raped, robbed, attacked or murdered then yes you could say that the UAE is not very 'civilized'.
