The UAE has undoubtedly come a long way in the past 15 years, there’s no disputing that.\u00a0<\/p>\n

But sometimes, we may take for granted just how far it has come, and a new video has been released that shows just that.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Residents that have lived in Al Barsha for nearly 20 years are asked in the video, to reflect on what the landscape was like, back in the early 2000s.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Dust and dirt, minimal roads and businesses is the answer; until Mall of the Emirates opened in 2005.\u00a0<\/p>\n
