Soaring Prices all over
Posted by Babar Ahmed at 08:00 UAE time
The traders are forced to sell at higher margins because its getting difficult to cope up with their overheads. Rents of premises have more than doubled, official fees... and the list can go on.

Price hikes

Raj, I believe that the municipality is interested more in securing the well being of the majority of residents and their fundamental needs to be able to break their fast in a good way, rather than worrying about us fortunate people who can afford to visit expensive hotels for Shisha, which I'm sure you can agree is not strictly necessary. And well done too.

profiting in ramadan
Posted by may karam at 20:00 UAE time
But do you understand that these little shops still have to pay the incredible rents of Dubai? I am not an owner of a shop , but i understand the a shopkeeper will do any thing he can to not lose his livelihood. Maybe the authorities should oblige landlords to get half the rent only in Ramadan to compensate for the lost business!

what can i say
Posted by Raj at 17:00 UAE time
Shisha tents in large hotels charge 'heavy entrance cover charges' - isn't this profiteering in the Holy Month as well. I don't see any action on them and only few days left for the month to end... Do you see any action - or is it only meant for smaller business outlets?

Price Hike

I am so glad UAE Ministry taking action against businesses that want to make extra money by taking advantage of the holy month. Can I also ask someone from UAE Ministry if they are reading this comment to take action against hotels in the UAE. Why are the prices of hotels up by 20% - 30% between 13th Oct until 17th? It's putting people off coming to UAE during these days... is that what UAE tourism board wants?
