A lady driver in the middle of the desert

I'm based in Al-ain,a city over 165km away from Dubai and in border with Bin Oman. It was really surprising to see a woman driving a taxi for a living and considering she's a Muslim it was really strange and very proud ot that lady. This is the good thing about in UAE wherein they give oppurtunity to everybody regardless of your religion and belief. I guess its the respect and the equality to everybody, especially in this conservative country where most of the women society are deprived of there rights and most often subject to abuse and humuliation. I hope more will follow and stay away from the ignorance of faith which is being influence by those very people who are supposed to be lead by example.
