NLH - Are you always this paranoid?

7.) Is it true that contact to the locals is generally not welcome?
You should as a rule hope to not have any contact, as for several of my colleagues the only "contact" they had with locals was when one rear-ended them with their car at a stoplight.
I know many Emiratis - all of them generous, kind and friendly! I will agree however that, as anywhere, there are a few bad apples in the applecart. Mainly on SZ Rd

Not around these villas
And this from Fourgolds;
EK do know about you , So does the UAE government ( its a little more subtle though. For example when you purchase alchohol they know exactly how much you purchased ( handy info if you think about it).
Only if you buy at MMI or A&E in Dubai - you want to try the Barracuda or Al Hamra in RAK and pay cash. No big deal is it?
Some of you chaps really need to get a grip
