Qatar : Fri Feb 20, 2009 2:51 pm  

I have just been working in Qatar.

Its an amazing place along the lines of Dubai but with a bit more sence than to completely abandon its Islamic heritage!

Amazing facilities and resources and we really should send a delegation to look at facilities to hold an event there. They are desperate to raise the profile of the country with international sporting events and im sure they would be happy to help.

The aspire facility built for the 2006 Asian Games is the most amazing complex Ive ever seen. RU has Dubai, Qatar could be there for our taking????
