Obesity in the UAE


In these days, obesity in the UAE has increased and changed a lot within 20 years. The solution for obesity should start with the people themselves then the governments.

   Starting with problem that causes obesity, one is a change in diet. People think that fast food is one of reasons for diet. Also, our special traditional food is available all the time and everywhere. A further cause by the change in lifestyle. People are less active and don’t do exercise or physical work. Young people can eat outside home and can spend more money on food. Another issue is that people nowadays are lacking the knowledge about good eating habits and are not aware of good nutrition. Children are fed too much and the family keeps them at home where they should take them to the park to do some exercise. In society the attitude to food is not giving the awareness to people.

   Fortunately, there are effects for this dangerous addiction. One answer is to budget the amount of money spent on unhealthy food, people should know what to eat and avoid fast food. People should change their lifestyle and do some exercises. They must concentrate on their health. Society should educate people about healthy eating, especially young people.

Problems



       People can’t fix problems with another problem. This story happened to me last year.

       I went to Abu Dhabi Mall with my wife to buy things for our home needs. We went at night which was the day before my son’s birthday. It was crowded with people from all nationalities. Suddenly I saw police officer catching two men that looked like they had a fight. I asked one of the people there about what happened. He told me that one of the men was harassing the daughter of the other man. Then he rad to the man and slapped him and they fought until the police came to the location and stop the fight. After a while they fought again in the parking yard. Then, the police rushed to them and took them to jail because of the problems they made. People were shocked and surprised of what had happened in there. At the end no one found anything good with what happened except problems.

   If you face any problem like these don’t panic and don’t go to the conclusions immediately. Report to police and control the situation. In case the other person wanted to fight you, don’t try to be polite, you’ll be beaten down. Hold him or fight back until the police come to the location

Misspelling Problems



     The story is about how misspelling just one letter led to a big misunderstanding which can lead to big problems.

     Mr. and Mrs. Jonas celebrated their wedding. Mr. Jonas told his wife that he would fly out for business. After that he flew and when he reached he went to the hotel. Then he put his luggage on the bed. After that he opened the windows and because the sun was hot he had to go inside. He noticed that there was a laptop on the table. Then he wrote an email to his wife describing how he was doing. But he sent the email to the wrong person first. After that he sent the email again to his wife. On the other hand, Mrs. Jones and her son were visiting Mr. Jones’s graveyard after burying him. Mrs. Jones and her son went home and sat on the sofa. After that he handed the laptop to his mother while he went to the kitchen to make coffee. She checked the emails and found strange email. Then she read the mistaken email and had a heart attack. Then her son ran to her and found her lying on the ground. After that she pointed to her laptop. She died when her son was readying the email.

     This is an example of the problem caused by one letter’s misspelling. One solution to the sender is to save the important or family contacts so the sender doesn’t have to write the type it every time. A suggestion to the receiver, before getting the idea checks where it came from.
