While the news in Qatar media concentrates on the Eid festival which is bigger ,longer and better organised than ever - the international media is full of attacks against Qatar and its rights to organize the Football World Cup in 2022 summer .
It is very dissapointing . Have you ever heard of a country being attacked so much after a decision ?
They say : Qatar is too hot and football stadiums can not be cooled
The truth : Qatar has long decades of experience in cooling public places -whenever I go out in summer to a mall I take a cardigan for the kids as it is rather cold inside . Besides Qatar s most important trade partner Japan is ready to contribute with their technological innovations . I expect that the Qatari petro-dollars and the Japanese innovations will bring really cool events ......
They say : Even if the stadiums are cooled the entertainment areas can not be cooled
The truth : Cooling streets is not something new - this exists at various parts of the world but expect indoor events at large areas and the entertainment is solved
They say : Qatar must have won by bribing
The Truth : Nobody ever could come up with proofs
I am not Qatari and I am not working for any official place here .I am simply an expat here who is just saddened by the attacks of the international media .
The Asian Games were held in Qatar in 2006 . The international media forgets to mention that fact . The international media did not mention the event then .Middle East on the western media is worth to mention only when it is about war /bombs / crime .

Qatar Japan friendship
It is an unexpected friendship . Japan with its cultivated pearls destroyed Qatar's main business , the ancient tradition of pearl fishing some sixty years ago . Now they are the best friends / though culturally and geographically they are very far from each other . This friendship is not based on the individual attraction of their people like the Hungarian Polish friendship .Japan is the best client of Qatar , they are buying the local natural gas . It is just the beginning of our friendship - it is claimed in this video
One can guess that Japan is going to help Qatar in preparing for the World Cup 2022 .
On the other hand we can not feel too much Japanese influence here . There are some sushi restaurants - in some supermarkets one can buy imported Japanese food .In the Hyatt plaza there is lovely Japanese shop selling Japanese knickknacks - I can browse things there for hours .
