    as a 14 year old girl, a lot of times i go to the dubai mall and other mall in dubai alone and i feel very safe and never have been followed or robbed or anything of that stuff. Safety for women in dubai is excellent!

    It depends on the company but normal 9 to 5 Monday to Friday. The week use to start on Sunday and end Thursday but they have adapted to the rest of world time frames. No need for Arabic but the national language is Arabic and Government can require you to file Arabic documents. There are services that will provide this for you. A good idea would be to learn the basic laws in UAE, they are very different from North America. In all its a very safe comfortable place to live.

    I have lived in Saudi Arabia 🇸🇦 for 14 years, as my father was working for the British Embassy in Saudi Arabia. If Dubai is a perfect place so why people's are moving back to the UK? Arab countries is not the best places to live. There is a dark side to this.

    Good video. Some mistakes in info here. Dubai is HOT for 9 months not 6 months. And HOT means 50 degrees sauna! Cost of living is very high so income taxes make no difference! You either pay taxes OR you pay more for living. It is not like No taxes & low cost of living! FYI
