the emirates have always been in forefront of social change in the gulf;, Emirati women wear hijab because they follow our prophet (PBUH) prescribing modesty.. Do not try to offend us you guneyerkekwith your comments. Are you envious about Dubai progress? Why isn't Turkey all over the news with the best the biggest the brightest but Dubai is????????
