A 'customer' walked in and inquired about a product and then struck up a conversation with the sales person or the business owner and when he found complaints, magically transformed into an official and wrote out the fine there and then. I went out of my way to verify it and it was true. So....zip up lads and ladettes and repeat after me...all is great and we couldn't be happier ;)

Officials have warned people in the UAE about spreading rumours and posting negative images and videos of rains, accidents and fires on social networking sites, reported ‘Emarat Al Youm’. Such acts are punishable under both penal and information technology laws, the report said and added that it increases confusion and panic in society as well as affects the reputation of the country and the efforts made by the state departments in saving and protecting life and property. During the recent heavy rains across the UAE some individuals behaved irresponsibly on social networking sites, said officials. They shared photos and videos from accidents that occurred during the rainy days and circulated rumours about building collapses and people drowning in rain water, thereby, creating panic among public. In addition, they ignored the great initiatives by the authorized departments and the heroic efforts by police and civil defence teams, across the UAE and Abu Dhabi in particular, during wet weather days. The Interior Ministry warned public of promoting rumours via social media and cautioned them of the legal consequences. http://www.emirates247.com/news/emir...03-13-1.624032 |
