Very beautiful, the category of people with special needs have a special place in us and they are certainly, never less than those who were lucky and who was healthy in his body and mind, but that many of them possess a wonderful mind, distinguished skills and a big heart.

No interest in the Middle East ..
But like all international companies, there is an interest in the developed United Arab Emirates. All respect, appreciation, and a bouquet of roses for the truly great state… Egyptian, I reside in Saudi Arabia and proud of the United Arab Emirates. All the films you talk about and shoot in them, and all the international games, suffice with a specific Arabic translation for the UAE
