In Dubai – Bankrupt so what?

So everybody this morning is talking about the bankrupt of Dubai and I want to say so what?

Guys stop looking over here for stupid reasons and wait for the Emirates to fall! What has been achieved here is amazing and the crisis did just hammer everybody not only Dubai!

Ok the debt here is huge but Lehmann Brothers and GM had their challenge too!

Now to be honest since the crisis Dubai has never been so nice and a good place to be! All the goldiggers are gone! All the people grumpy because they couldn’t be rich in a minute are gone so yallah leave us alone!

I’m back in Dubai, enjoy the parties on the beach and at the polo course, the drive on the beach road, wearing a bermuda in November, watching pro golfing and regatta, hoping that Kenny Dope will rock the dancefloor, get ready for the Sevens, expect Barcelona to win the FIFA world club championship and so many more things so like Jay loves New York let’s sing “In Dubai” too!

So I understand that everybody is impatient because I’ve been away for a while!

But don’t worry it is soon the end of my retreat! I ordered internet on Thursday and they should install it on Monday!

But just for info the current vibe is really good and I can’t wait to show you my latest kicks…

And go to buy Hotel Costes 12 as I’m just back from his launch party and it was really nice! Thanks Mr Stephane

So good to be French in France…

Honestly I’m French and can say that in France we are getting more and more stupid!

To be honest for me France is an administrative area… a beautiful one with a lot of culture and a mix of people from different horizon but an administrative area so if you are from China, Zimbabwe or Chili but born in France or leave there for a while you are French! But so many people don’t see that and are afraid of differences…

Start loving your neighbor and stop looking at their name or their origin… stupid people are from everywhere so stop judging!

Why I say that? Because of an article of Le Monde about a French journalist (sorry it’s in French) but use a translator it worth it! Moi Mustapha Kessous, Journaliste au “Monde” et victime du racisme

Peace

Etisalat bring Fiber optic to your home!

Etisalat FTTH

I’m so happy soon the network in UAE will be faster than in France! We will compete with Japan and Korea with our beautiful fiber optic network! I just got the upgrade today and as you can see above it is lovely!

Imagine downloading at 100mps and uploading at the same speed! So beautiful!

Ok let’s face it know! When a connexion at 16mps cost 549AED per month (Approx 150$) it means that the 100mps will cost 3431AED? Guys I just want to let you know that there is no point in investing in such a network if nobody can afford it!

Do you think I would spend 549AED for the net even if it was unlimited speed? In France you got 20mps for 150AED and the TV and free phone calls! Stop playing with us we are not making the money by ourself!

So it’s nice I just inherited of a Ferrari with a Lada engine!

In the meantime the French parliament has just voted the law against download of files called HADOPI2! France is now a real fascist country!

Pay by phone… your parking

P1040893

When I visited Dubai couple of days ago I didn’t have time to do much but there was 2 things.

The first one is that it is becoming a lot easier to find a spot to grab a bite to eat when you are not fasting during Ramadan, there! In Abu Dhabi even Krispy Kreme for take away is close during fasting hours!

The second one is that it seems that now you can pay your parking by sms! I haven’t try but that’s cool! No need to look for change to put 5AED in the machine! I like that!

What’s up?

Nothing much… Ramadan is full blast but feel so slow… Abu Dhabi style maybe…

Hope things will pick up a bit as now it’s too quiet! Well in Dubai city tomorrow will try to shot in order to entertain you!

If I don’t forget the cam!

shelter.ae

events_bg3

Maybe one of the most interesting place in UAE currently?

“The shelter is an innovation campus that allows ideas to exist in a creative environment. This environment is infused with added value experiences such as language and design classes, regional major events such as the Art Dubai VIP lounge and will exist to create an experience in order to attract and identify innovation.”

They have a shop with good product it seems and organise sale on supremebeing brand on Saturday… so I might pass by… not to buy anything but to have a look at the place…

HADOPI sucks!

Ok downloading copyrighted product is bad but the HADOPI law in France might be the most facist law I’ve seen for ages in the world!

Imagine that if you get caught downloading a file without permission you can get:

- Your internet supply on hold for quite a while and you will still have to pay for it (up to 1 year!)

- It might also cut your telephone line and TV (In France it’s Tripleplay so is the provider able to split everything?)

- It allow third party to spy your data transfer (Otherwise how they would know that you are downloading something?)

- A big fine but big big!

-Possibility to get a pursuit from the right holder (Double sentence)

-Necessity by your supplier to provide all necessary information to the state

- Responsibility in case someone hack your wifi network

- etc…

Well I mean you might end up paying 6 month of your salary for a file or 2 downloaded? Guys there is crime every minute that are left on the side and downloading are just bad for the majors so what’s wrong with you?

On top of that about 70% of the French are against that law which means that the government is against their people which is FACISM!

Might end up like in this video (Sorry in French but???)

Contrast…

It’s funny! I am multitasking surfing the web (and listening to good reggae music)  and think about wtf I can talk about here and can’t find nothing interesting at the moment.

In the meantime I have two website open (highsnobette and Radcollector) and end up with 2 video that have a common point which is Paris!

Well the first one is a video clip from our own Martin Solveig (very Parisian style in a way) in a fashion house! Well Jean Paul Gaultier house to say everything. It’s a nice and fresh song, funny and sounding good…

The second one is a skate video of Mark Gonzales skating the street of Paris (download all the video by clicking here)

Well what I mean is why the Emirates doesn’t titillate my local appetite for anything funky groovy or I can’t find anything local interesting to share with you??

Whatever…in the meantime everybody seems to go to Paris and it’s nice because I love Paris energy? But hey the Emirates can you lead me to your potential?

So for this reason I offer you this:
