Move To Fujairah

The congestion of the west coast, including Dubai, Sharjah, Ajman and the surroundings is definitely starting to affect people's psyche now, so for your mental well-being I advise some of you to move to Fujairah.
Not all of you, just some of you. I think there should be a green card style lottery, with the lucky winners getting the right of abode in the heavenly, mountainous oasis of calm. For a start. getting to work will take you no more than 5 minutes, if you are lucky enough to actually gain employment in Fujairah itself. The west coast may be 1 hour away by car, but most places are now at least an hour away, even if you live in one of the western cities mentioned above.
Just one example to illustrate my point. An old school friend of mine asked if I wanted to go out in Dubai, and I confirmed in the affirmative. Now he, at the time, lived in Sharjah with his parents in a villa near one of those yellow, water tank-towers. You know, the ones located on the roundabouts, going towards the corniche. Anyway, he and I started our journeys at the same time, but I reached the mall on the Dubai-Sharjah road a full 30 minutes before him. Thirty minutes!
I vow never to move to west coast, I can get to anywhere faster than you lot can, anyday.
