Let's answer for Emiratis. question might hold a different connotation to it. Let's ask you “why are you asking this?” Because it might sound weird to some.Regardless, poor in the UAE has a different meaning. When I lived in the UK, it was the first time I saw a homeless person. My heart ached seeing her under a bridge all alone in the bitter cold night. Does she have a family? Somewhere to go to? A place to call home? A private space to lay down all the heavy burdens of the outside world? I was 18 by the time. I felt scared.There are harsh realities far worse than this elsewhere. Just a glance through the news is enough.We are blessed in the UAE. The leadership is unique and we love them. Truly visionary. They truly care about the people. They support in every single thing to promote the success of the locals. I have first hand experience. We are like almost spoiled.What do you mean “potentially solve a pressing issue”? “Resources or policies would empower these people to rise up out of it”? “Urban to rural regions” I've heard this before.You have a problem, apply for assistance. They are most generous. You want to address a public issue, there is the Federal National Council. There are systems to support the people and many new initiatives that makes things even better.Poor here is different. It's wants not needs anymore.
