Q7- Why do you think the UAE government cared about camels?  

 Questions will be answered in the paragraph:

Imagine telling a local elder person, talk to me about camels and, what does it mean to you? Things get more interesting. Camels are one of the strongest animals ever created by God. One of the components of their strength is that they could keep their water for a month without getting thirsty. Our grandfathers had been using them for transportation and loading heavy materials. Over the years the Gulf region got wealthy so they started buying some cars that had machines, which was something they had not thought of. The UAE and KSA particularly concentrated on camels, because they appreciated what they did for them and it is a part of their culture.

I have interviewed one of the lovers of camels Abdullah Butti Saif Al Marar,; he is 88 years old. He owned 23 female camels. Two of his camels won 2 races  and actually got 2.5 million from the race. It not that amazing? He said I got into this business after I saw that I owned camels and I fed them very well and I kept them in perfect health. Regarding  government, he said  the government was so helpful to me; they provided me with a free place to look after my camels in a safe environment and provided some food and water for free. In 2008 there was a vast event in Al Ain he participated and got the third place, which was surprising to him; why third place? Moreover, this is his life and he is proud and happy about it.

Reflection

 Part1:

We worked as a group because I think working as group gives you more advantage in making question, deciding where to go and fixing the video.

We choose Abu Dhabi Horse Club because we were interested to know what activity they organized and the time for some competition which take place in the club. Also I was interested to know the membership they offered it to people so if I decide to go I know that information previously.

By searching in the internet and then we papered some questions for the interviewer so we can get a lot of information. We chose that way because in our opinion the internet hasn't more information about the club so we have to meet some faculty to get the rest of the information.

Part 2:

I found there are many competitions taking place in the club and their nationality competitors in first places. For each jumping, racing and riding there are separate area to training the membership and for the competition.

Yes, it is because the gentleman who we interviewed gave us full answers and more information, we were not expecting it.

It relates to leisure in the sports side because for both of them are main purpose for them is sport. In society side for shore a lot of people are interested in that club because it has a lot of activates and they will know about different schools which belong to the horse. And they will have an idea about the membership if they are able to join.

Part3:

In Photoshop because we haven’t much experience to make our video more organized and impressive for the people who see it. Also the way to interview because it was first time I did an interview so my skills were not enough to get more information.

Yes because the Interviewees give full information and let us visit different places we can live the moment.

Prepare very will and bring high quality tools so the video and sound are more clear; making more questions and trying to visit all the facilities in the club like boxing
