= 2025 impression from Qatar

<Ciro Santilli> visited <Qatar> in 2025, here are some notes.

The lady at the border crossing that checked the passports was terrible. She and all her colleagues had their hijabed colleagues had cell phones on social media right on the job, and a terrible attitude. But one of them had an Apple Watch, they are not poor. They must be the disliked third wives of the cousin of the king of something. The facial recognition system was terrible and took several tries to work for some people. Quite funnily, all the border crossing male officers look like <#Saddam Hussein>. Interestingly, Chinese nationals need to take more fingerprint than Europeans.
