Dubai Brochure Life - Not for the most of us



This is something along the lines you are likely to see when they promote Dubai to the world. I call it the brochure life, i.e., it isn't real or true for most people living here.

I pass the Burj Al Arab (If you do not know or remember just know that this is perhaps the only 7-star and also tallest hotel in the world) every day. The girls' school is just a short distance from it.

Some of the architecture sure looks impressive, though. I suppose it's the same gap between Tourism Board's "Uniquely Singapore" and the "Plain Old Real Singapore".

You are right, except that the gap is wider here.
