Watched Dubai grow

My father arrived in Dubai in the year 1979 and since then Dubai has been our home. My siblings and I were born here. My mother still remembers the day when Gulf News was launched. She told me that during the launch time we used to receive complimentary copies for many days. Since my childhood I remember Gulf News in our home. We have been loyal subscribers. Till date, my parents only read Gulf News. They have many wonderful memories attached with the growth of the UAE. Even I have seen so much development. For example, I have seen the construction of Deira City Center when we used to go past in our school bus.
