Marring the good image

I would like to raise a concern regarding the untidy look of some empty spaces within the Tecom area in Dubai, specifically near my office building.

For the time being, most of these spaces are being used as car parking, and rubbish and debris are scattered all over.

The view is appalling and it is difficult to imagine that one of the sites is just across from a five-star hotel.

What would the guests and visitors say about this?

The Tecom area is both a residential and commercial location. There are countless hotels and office buildings surrounding the area.I think the relevant authorities are not responsive about collecting and appropriately disposing the rubbish.

I hope that they will look into this matter. It mars the good image of the city.
