Seb, you have a point. Being a resident in Dubai you are the best person to
know the reality. I agree with you that even in London the posh places of
tourist interest are awesome and very clean viz. Buckingham palace, London
bridge, etc. while places inhabitated by immigrants like Southall etc. are
just like being in some of the filthy places in Mumbai and not better places
like Nariman Point, Churchgate, Ballard Estate etc.
However the fact cannot be denied that the same Indians abroad and back home
are a different breed altogether. At home they would consider their right to
dispose garbage/litter and just piss and shit wherever they feel like.
I feel as a first step there there should be more importance to cleanliness
and education given in schools and publicity in general given to it so that
with awareness a small beginning in whatever way could be made by all.
Tale care. You too have a nice week.
Deu borem korum.

While you all are just guests in Dubai, I have lived my life for a decade
here.
Both are right... Should know, from a tourist point of view.. the places
will be clean, only those area a tourist visits. Other than that it is what
Dr Ferdinando says...
Advertising the world won't help here.. Pick the broom and clean GOA:-)
