They're ripping up the camel track because it is prime real estate, you think heritage matters?

Of course they dont, unfortunately

I know that AA but it has got to be worth a try. I wasn't expecting so much criticism for trying to save somewhere that has been an absolute lifeline for many an expat over the years.

Re: Dubai Country Club - possible closure
dont think anyone is giving you criticism BC, just a reality check. There is nothing you can do about it.
Its time to move on. How many new expats use the place? (out of curiosity?)

I don't have the exact figures but I can find out. We get new members joining every week. What about the members who have been members up there for twenty years. They are feeling pretty upset. It is worth a try at the end of day. Not everyone can afford the beach clubs and there isn't really anywhere else unless your in an Emaar gaff.

Me neither, no criticism was voiced, apologies if it felt that I was, as Mr. Scottish gentleman says, it was just a reality check.
