WE live in a world where people are free to get employment wherever they can find it .

I therefore have no problem with Vasbert Drakes getting employed by the UAE .

I have no doubt that he would be well compensated financially , and that would be good for him & his family . I therefore congratulate Vasbert Drakes on his appointment .
