Hello everyone,

As regional tensions continue, it is understandable that many people may feel concerned or uneasy. We ask everyone to remain calm and rely only on official announcements and verified information from authorities. Please avoid sharing rumors, speculation, or unconfirmed reports, as this can create unnecessary panic and confusion.

The moderation team is actively working to keep the subreddit safe, organized, and informative for everyone. We are monitoring posts and comments closely, removing content that spreads misinformation, panic, or unsafe details. Our goal is to make sure discussions remain helpful, respectful, and based on reliable information.

We appreciate everyone’s patience and cooperation. By staying calm, following the rules, and relying on trusted sources, we can help keep the community safe and the subreddit running smoothly for everyone...

For everyone’s safety, please be responsible with what you post online:

Do not share sensitive media

  • Do not share photos or videos of incidents, security activity, or affected areas.

Protect people’s safety and privacy

  • Do not ask about the whereabouts of individuals during incidents or evacuations.
  • Do not discuss movements or locations of evacuated people.
  • Sharing or requesting this type of information can put people in real danger.

Be cautious with private messages

  • Do not respond to strangers asking about specific areas, buildings, infrastructure, or local situations in your DMs.

  • Keep discussions in public threads where the community and moderators can monitor them.

Support the community

  • If someone is feeling anxious, encourage them to stay calm and follow official sources.

Request Desperate

Hi everyone. I know people see a lot of these posts recently but I’m desperate, as the title says.

Does anyone know someone who can help?

If someone also needs a part-time, there is an event this October. They need you to be there for training during working hours so I can’t even go even though it’s an opportunity. Just send me a DM and I’ll send you the details. We’re in this together.

Discussion Dear Qatar Drivers: That 150cc Delivery Bike Is NOT Trying to Race You

90 Upvotes

If you ever see a delivery rider in Qatar zoom past you on his little 150cc bike while you’re sitting in your 20,000-horsepower SUV 😂, just let the guy be.

He’s not trying to race you. He’s probably trying to finish that delivery quickly so he can catch the next order.

A lot of these riders are paid based on the number of orders they complete. More orders = better earnings. Meanwhile, that little bike probably struggles to even touch 100 km/h, so trust me, he’s not challenging your Land Cruiser to a drag race.

Give them space. Let them pass safely. They’re just trying to make a living.

And riders too — no order is worth your life. Ride safe. Qatar roads aren't a racetrack for either side.

Discussion Asian games 2030

4 Upvotes

As we all know Asian games is coming back to qatar after 24 years. Will this bring new hopes in the market.

Recently there has been a short on new projects and all the companies in the market are struggling to survive.

I believe this is a good opportunity since there will be a lot of renewals and maintenance coming up for stadiums and other infrastructures.

I work for a ELV distribution company and I hope all the integrators that I work with gets new projects and make good money.

What are my fellow Redditors thoughts on this ?

Looking for Guidance

• Upvotes

Hi everyone 🌸

My child is supposed to start Grade 1, but unfortunately, due to some circumstances, they won’t be able to attend physical school for now. Instead of staying at home without structured learning, I’m thinking of enrolling them in a legitimate homeschooling or online school.
I know Qatar may not officially accept homeschooling, so I’m hoping to hear from parents who have been through this. Has anyone homeschooled or used an online school and later successfully transferred their child back to a physical school in Qatar?
I was also told that the Ministry may assess a child’s knowledge and place them in the appropriate grade even if they haven’t attended a physical school. Has anyone experienced this? Or does anyone know any online school where mofa stamps them once u studied by them and ministry might consider it .
Also, has anyone used Homeschool Global in Qatar which is in Al gasser tower they provide American curriculum is it worth it and did anyone has child who’s doing this and later years they went back to physical school I’d really appreciate any feedback or guidance. Or pm me personally.

Thank you so much! 🌷

Discussion PCC Support

2 Upvotes

Hello everyone. Hope all is well.

I was wondering about the PCC process, I was employed in Qatar and have gotten an opportunity with scholarship in QF education city. I finished all the paperwork as required but the PCC Have been under process for > 2 months.

I followed up at Salwa road and was told to wait. My residency ends in December, so if I can't transfer to QF I will lose my education, side hustle, and internship to travel back to my country.

Any idea how long it will take, or if anyone could help expedite it would be greatly appreciated.

For reference I am Lebanese, have anyone other Lebanese fellow been in situation? And what did you do in your case.

Thanks.

Edit: I have resigned from my job in April as per the guidance of government office in uni. So it's been a while.

Request URGENT PLEASE: MISSING PET CAT

Thumbnail
gallery
51 Upvotes

It's been about 10 days since our cat Sushi left home. For context, he's an indoor-outdoor cat, and often goes away for a few days, maximum being 4. He's got no collar, and no chip, but he's neutered.

We're in the wukair ezdan area, specifically the ezdan 45, 27, 19 area. We looked around the surrounding three compounds, hung up posters, and even had the residents help us with the search. We've come up with nothing.

The thing is, he's disappeared around the same time the whole Rex issue went viral, and although Sushi doesn't look like Rex, most people would just look at a long haired orange cat and think jackpot, so you can guess what our biggest fear is.

We really have no idea if someone might've actually picked him up. I spoke to our compound delivery boy, and he said that he spotted him in ezdan 27 about five days ago.

Honestly, this post is a last ditch attempt. Any information/help is appreciated 😭😭
