My best friend is currently there - he hates the place.
No smoking
Beer $7 to go
A room in a flat share $1500(!)
Asian mentality when they work with Europeans.

He left in October, the Bank wanted him to stay for 3 years or so - the way things look like right now he will be back in April.

Libya under Gaddafi wasn't such a bad place either. Free health-care, free universities, scholarships for studies abroad etc.

There are none, at least no crated ones.
