The UAE between the past and the present

The UAE has changed enormously over the last 40 years. This has been because of the discovery of oil. This essay will show the differences between the UAE then and now.

Many years ago people did not have as much money as they do now. They did not have big houses and cars like we have today. Everyone lived in small houses and all the family lived together with grandfathers, grandmothers, uncle, aunts and sons. Moreover they used camels and donkeys to travel and carry heavy things. In addition, also they did not have oil. Also the education was very bad, there were no schools, colleges and universities. The students went to mosques to study Arabic and the Quran. Moreover the medical care was very small with a few hospitals and people used traditional medicines to take care of each other.

On the other hand if we look at the UAE now it has changed so much that it is almost unrecognizable. Oil was discovered and the wealth and GPD of the country changed. People now have a lot of money, cars and big houses. For example, we live in big house my father’s house is very big and each one from my brother’s has a car. The education now is very good, we have a lot of colleges, schools, and universities. Moreover we have foreign teachers in the college. Also we have many good hospitals such as Kalifa hospital which has medical care.

To conclude, I am so lucky to live in UAE nowadays. I believe the UAE one of the best countries in the world. I hope in the future the UAE moves forward.
