The UAE Freemasons
 
I'm looking for a lodge or someone who can accommodate me. Any leads would be very helpful...

Where can I see that? I read somewhere that the Islamic government banned the practice of Freemasonry in UAE...

I dunno. I read it at Uni 15 years ago. I can imagine why the UAE has banned Freemasonry...

Very biased book not based on fact, they do a lot of great charity work and not all to do with freemasons, but like any other organisations have good and not so good members, who try to take advantage, although these days it doesn't happen as often as it used to. But like everything else I could tell you some stories.

I very much agree with you. There might be some shady characters but exceptional individuals as well. Anyway, sent you a PM mate.
