The £7m Christmas tree: Where Else But UAE
Ok this is nothing to Grin about, as this by far is not my regular joke post. As you can see from the pictures that the Arabs in UAE have put up this XMAS tree which would possibly enter the Guinness Book of World Records. Leaving aside of money wasting issues cause tree itself is about 10,000 dollars, and the ornamental and jewelery is valued about 10 Million Dollars. However my concern that came up from this very extreme part of Muslim World is that, they do respect the culture of Christians.. and of course there are the angry jihaders that want to kill all the Christians in the world. My Question is that how come we have different mentality with our locals when TV3 aired their Hari Raya advertisement which was blasted because it is deemed to be too westernized, un-Islamic and Satanic! What's more? TV3 (was forced) apologized to the Muslims in Malaysia about the ad in their prime time news-Buletin Utama.
This is the advertisement of the TV3 Hari Raya Advertisement on Youtube :
