The UAE has changed enormously over the last 40 years. This has been because of the discovery of oil. This essay will discuss the difference between the UAE then and now.
Many years ago people did not have as much wealth as they do now. They did not have many cars because they were expensive and the oil was too expensive. They were traveling by camels and they took by days and months and years to arrive the place they wanted to go to it. 40 years ago no one had large houses except the president and they were built from wood and sand. Most of the people in the UAE were working in the middle center markets, hunting and diving because there were no schools and colleges or universities. Students were going to mosques to study and memories the holy Quran. In addition, also they were not many hospitals and they were using traditional medicines. They did not have ice cream and chocolates. Instead they had apple pie and bananas.
The UAE now has a lot of development compared to 40 years ago. Each family in it now has many vehicles. Almost 3 cars in each family. Now a day they have highly paid jobs with good salaries. Most of the people have large villas. For example my father’s house is a big villa with 3 floors and it has a big area surrounding it. The UAE has many colleges, universities and schools that have many modern curriculum and courses subjects such as IT, Business and Engineering. Now days there are many good hospitals in the UAE almost everywhere. Such as Khalifa hospital in Abu Dhabi, Twam in Alain, Welcare in Dubai and AGMC in Sharjah.
In conclusion, there are a lot of differences while nowadays in UAE has overweight development than 40 years ago. I prefer the life in UAE now.
