My Letters – Khaleej Times – All for the National Day

There is a bit of Dhoni’s principle in this picture. the shopkeepers in this photo are three Iranian brothers whom I have known for many years and to whom I take my car regularly for any minor modification or tint works. The advantage plus I get from them is they stick to basic, do not do anything extra than what is asked and take good care of the vehicle while doing the job and give a real nice finish. This article is a tribute to one of them who is leaving back to his country soon after many years of work in the UAE.
