The First FreeLance Portal in Egypt and Middle East

Monday, May 31st, 2010
middle east
Omnia Moustafa asked:


For the first time in the Middle East a portal has been launched to manage the relation between companies and individuals who need to hire a freelancer to get a job done and the freelancers themselves.  The idea has been done globally several times.  Sites like www.rentacoder.com and www.elance.com are good examples of executing this idea.

The idea is, a company needs to get a certain job done but they don’t need to hire an employee and put him on the payroll just for this job.  Especially if they don’t have a job description for him and they will not really need him after the job at hand is done.  So, they consider hiring a freelancer.  Lots of risks involved of course, like he will not be up to the job, he will not get it done right, he will miss the deadline and keep stalling, he will take the down payment and disappear.  Lots of problems.

On the other hand the freelancers don’t know how to get known so that when someone needs them he can contact them.  Also freelancers are afraid of finishing and delivering the work and then never receive their payment and companies are very good at coming up with reasons why they will not pay.  Another concern is that the company will ask for one thing at the beginning and then the actual project turns out to be much bigger than their original statement.  So the freelancer gets under paid. Portals that govern the relation resolve all these issues.

Lancerscafe.com is the first in Egypt and the Middle East to offer such a service. I think it is a good opportunity for many people who wish to increase their freelance business and earn more money.

It seems like a good chance for many people.  If you are a woman who wishes to work at home and earn some money, a student who needs to work while studying, an employee who needs to increase his income or an elderly who still wants to do something useful and add some income on his pension….Then Lancerscafe is what you are looking for.

LancersCafe.com offers 175 specialty, starting from Data Entry and passing by programming, web design, article writing, graphic design, fashion design and up to Marketing, accountancy, engineering and landscaping and a lot of other professions you can find them yourself at www.lancerscafe.com

Food selection for human body has great impact on it. It is fuel for human body, in case of lack and extra dosage would create problem to human body. You would life style along with food diet also has great impact on your body.

Affect on body may be from small to big problem issues. You may lose your human body part because of improper food diet and lots of stress. Every body part is required minimum limitation to work properly. For your hair, illness, over stress, lack of food with minerals may damage your hair from disease like hair fall, thin hair and premature graying. Hair are made from protein, we need to eat some food that are full of organic minerals. For more proteins origin, you may fish, milk, cheese, yogurt and eggs sun flower seeds.

For your health routine, your favorite ice cream, in excess, may create some disease like headache or may make you fatty with more calories habited person. With nutritional analysis provided by company and other analysis brought result that is not good.

The Middle East Peninsula – Every Architects Dream Come True But Inhabitants Nightmare Come Home

Monday, May 24th, 2010
middle east
zorba asked:


Khaleej Times Online recently reported 97 new hotels are likely to be added by 2010 in UAE with a combined capacity of more than 30,600 rooms. In the same period, Qatar is expected to add 39 new hotels (9,835 rooms), Kuwait 19 hotels (4,115 rooms), Bahrain 15 hotels (3,615 rooms) and Oman 4 hotels (766 rooms). The report was based on an interview with Frederic Theux, President of Reed Exhibitions, who will be organizing the prestigious Equip Hotel Middle East in Abu Dhabi National Exhibition Centre from December 14-16, 2008.

According to Theux, “Currently the total hotel room capacity in the above countries stands at 33,925. Abu Dhabi is planning to increase hotel room capacity to 25,000 by 2015 and develop over 100 hotels in the next ten years. The Emirates is investing over Dh367 billion in the next 5 years in a combination of projects that include upgrading the UAE capital’s airport, building a new port, establishing new townships and tourism development. The ADTA is implementing an aggressive tourism development strategy including the establishment of world class tourist attractions such as the Louvre and Guggenheim museums on Saadiyat Island and the hosting of a Formula 1 Grand Prix on Yas Island in 2009”.

The Dubai Department of Tourism & Commerce Marketing (DTCM) stipulated that the number of hotels and hotel apartments in Dubai is set to rise to 554 by 2016 from 439 currently, with the existing room capacity of hotels and apartments expected to nearly triple. Every other day we hear of major ego massage projects being announced in Dubai. The 50000 m 2 ski dome, the world islands and the 360 degrees rotating tallest building only the latest to add to the list . All these in a long list of never ending wants and desires. To the extend that Dubai is no longer constructed on land but has conquered the oceans with a world map that can be seen from space. A virtual Disneyland for grownups which has helped Dubai brand itself astonishingly fast and well. Is this going to be the end of achievements. Is everyone satisfied and ready to call it a day. Somehow I don’t think so. 2006 saw 6 million tourist visiting Dubai and 2010 is slated to have over 15 million visit. The worst dilemma today seems to be finding the newest and best WOW factor to construct.

And what does this mean for the people residing there, for the environment and for the future generations to come. Spending power is fast becoming a sickness, here where everything available must be bested, no matter the cost to man and nature. The oil money, ensures that Dubai is a safe haven for the rich and spoilt, a paradise on the Persian Gulf. How does this affect the common man except for further bridging the gap between the haves and the have nots. And what happens when the oil money runs out. Are they suitable ‘other’ trades available to satisfy the masses flocking to these cities. Perhaps not.

There are artificial islands, artificial trees and artificial air – enough to make one wonder if anything is real anymore. There are buildings and more buildings and then some buildings which perhaps got left out previously by some stroke of luck. It’s a virtual concrete jungle with the people stressed, stretched and uneducated with what is real. The roads of Dubai are fast running out of moving space, water is scarce and housing is a very real nightmare for the common folks living there. And from the looks of it most of the children are not going to get educated since the waiting lines for admission seems endless, one that the best of references nor money can fix. Eking out a living, a laughable term there since Dubai is the fast bucks Mecca, can ensure that where money is plentiful, sharks tend to prey. Everyone is interested in this business called money. Buying and selling are religions in themselves, and serious ones at that. You are only as good as your previous sale or purchase. The unshakeable belief in the Gold Souks of Dubai ensure that all citizens, rich and poor, are prone to hoarding this invaluable currency. Anyone ever wonder why prices are escalating?

Governance, minimum wage bills, elections, parliament, employment protection laws, tenant protection statements all seem to have taken a back seat in this city of mega enterprises. It is norm to deposit your passport at the work place for the duration of the contract, bans from Dubai for life are commonplace. Should someone be trying to terminate these archaic, barbaric and totally unacceptable rules in today’s world of freedom – I would say definitely yes.

According to Theux, the exhibition is slated to take place at the Abu Dhabi National Exhibition Centre and will support the rapidly expanding hospitality sector in the GCC region. Equip Hotel Paris is well-established and considered the leading international hospitality show primarily targeting the European market. Taking a page out of the artistic world, I guess the show must go. But it would have been nice if the sheikhs of the big dollar spends could spend a moment of thought for the common Middle East Resident. If they could carry the masses along with them on this journey of prosperity and development rather than leaving them to cope with issues which though perhaps not poverty linked can be as devastating as a plague. If they could spare a thought for the needy and perhaps apply even 5% of themselves to charitable causes.

There is light at the end of every tunnel and we can only hope that the Middle East construction mania does not decide to try and conquer the entire world’s natural wealth in its quests. We have created enough damage on the planet to last a few generations after us and it would have been nice to have at least left the seas and oceans untouched by the damaging hand of man. Does the corrupting influence of money, only paper after all, enable the rest of the world to forget principles as it stands by and watches Dubai and the Middle East encroach on what is after all Gods gift to entire mankind and not a chosen few.

Shushmul Maheshwari asked:

All these factors have also resulted in the rapid advancements of the country’s healthcare infrastructure. Our new research study “Middle East and Africa Pharma Sector Forecast to 2012” anticipates that pharma market in South Africa will grow at a CAGR of over 8% to generate revenue of around US$ 4.7 Billion by 2012, ranking it one of the highest growing pharma markets in the overall region.

According to our study, South Africa is the leading country in the region in terms of revenue generation and will retain its leading position in near future also. Various factors, such as ageing population, increasing prevalence of lifestyle-related diseases, have strongly boosted the growth of pharmaceutical market. Moreover, the government is promoting the sector by making investments in active research and development of drugs.

We have observed that most of the country level markets are dependent on import. More than half of the drugs are imported in the region from the American and European countries and because of this, drug prices in the region are very high. For this, the governments of respective countries are trying to improve their domestic production level. Moreover, regulations are being changed in several countries to restrict excessive import of drugs.

Our study “Middle East and Africa Pharma Sector Forecast to 2012” analyzes key markets and their segments to give information about the pharma industry in the Middle East and Africa region. According to our industry experts, several steps should be taken by governments to make easy the approval system in order to promote investment in dedicated research and development.
