The diversity of Dubai. Part 2.


The culture in Dubai is very diverse.
You will find people from all over the world, especially today due to the economic expansion that needs more qualified expatriate white-collar employees
Before its recent 21st century economic expansion, Dubai culture was rather consistent throughout the Emirate.
There was not much immigrant population other than workers from nearby Middle Eastern and Asian nations like India and Pakistan.
Iranians were the first to migrate to Dubai  followed by Indians and Pakistanis .
Today however, the culture of Dubai has become much diverse.

Despite the multicultural society, everyone seems to coexist without much conflict. A big reason for the safety and peace in Dubai is fear of the local Government or "Sheikdom" as people like to call it. 

 In a single ruler nation, only the ruler has the final word. There are no ifs, ands and buts.
Local laws are very strict on crime committing individuals. The biggest threat the law poses to Dubai residents is the ability to deport them anytime with no questions asked.
People are living in Dubai for a reason, the biggest being jobs. If they are deported, they will loose their livelihood. 
In fact everyone says Dubai is a safe place, and I think so too. But crime is "omnipresent". It exists everywhere in the world. Is it  much less???
