Almost all of us, not only Filipinos are excited on what this country has shown so far when it comes to development. The UAE has exhibited continuous growth when it comes to infrastructures with the rise of tall buildings, roads, bridges and most of all, the highly anticipated railways that will connect one city to another which is under development now.

The huge growth of this country makes me so excited since the time I arrived here because now I am enjoying the view and experiences of the new Shopping Malls, Childrens’ / Adults Park to visit and play, Amusement establishments and a lot more. I look forward to more infrastructure developments this 2020 of which I’m sure will attract millions of tourists to visit the UAE. I can’t wait to visit these places.

With my 10 years of stay in UAE, I have seen how things have improved in terms of infrastructure and transportation making the lives of every expat in this country more convenient, and making UAE as one of the best place for expats to live and work.

I have noticed as well that there are now good numbers of Businesses (Filipino Restaurants and alike) have flourished compared to 10 years ago, you can only see few Filipino restaurants around, now the presence of Filipinos living here can be manifested with the numbers of different business around.

More importantly, UAE gave me an opportunity to grow professionally and earn a good living to support my family back home and I’m more than excited to see this nation to progress and develop in the years to come especially Expo 2020 is coming very soon.
