“Where the hell is Ras al Khaimah?” most people have been saying these last few days.
Gulf News repeats much of the news given in earlier announcements but provides a photo gallery with a good map of RAK (pictured), showing its location in relation to the rest of the UAE.
It also features a growing number of reactions from the locals glad to see RAK being put on the map.
