I am only talking from my personal experience ok...sorry that I don't know anyone who has fleed...I will try harder.
And a few times a week I see moving trucks carrying boxes into new houses...maybe they are doing it for show and the boxes are actually empty?

if everyone else quits, then at least it keeps your job safe.

In the eyes of selfishness, I'd positively encourage it..

'Go on, flee the country. You know you want to...'

Yes but doing so the banks are out of money... therefore not improving on the situation....

AND they will hunt you down and kill you.... well maybe not kill you but im sure they will drive you insane!!!

It is a proven reality that people are fleeing.

More than 3,000 cars were abandoned by owners in the UAE in 2008 to escape loan payments - more than double the 2007 figure - as the impact of the global economic crisis took its toll
