Why not? They hoted the Asiad so why not the world cup football?

I hope Qatar will get it....This will help to bridge the gap between the western and Arab worlds....:-)

Qatar has the money,world class stadiums, the infrastructure, abundant enthusiasts, and most of all, the will to host the World Cup.

the question is not if they could..offcourse they can so would any other country that is ready to spend... but the actual question is can qatar attract visitors if the are given to host ????

OFFCOURSE, THAT WILL BE ONE OF THE HISTORIC MOMENT ABOUT QATAR

Yes..
Nothing talks louder than MONEY... and time... 12 yrs is long time to prepare......
They can have a NASA replica too.. if they think of it :)

Qatar can’t even dream about WC 2022, hosting WC or Olympics is not so easy as hosting Asiad ... so Let them try after 2050

@hurricane80 ... eh! Qatar cant even dream about it? what makes you say so?

I hope but I don't think so

To be honest...never seen anybody advertising tht they are bidding....

Heard the hoardings of Bid 2022 are put in Dubai too... ya ya.. its a W T F situation...

I really don know wht is the use of promoting a BID... does it help in any wayz

i agree with with De_Alchemist , they can do it if they plan it just fine.

Qatar 2050 possible.

De_Alchemist:
You NEVER seen advertising about bidding? You must be kidding then i must add.
Read all these.

Each and every country who bid advertise like anything! No one expects or want the event to a big time flop. It is just to show that the country can host the event as a great success. More over, the organizing committee look at the infrastructure and other facilities of the bidding nation. That is one of the reason Qatar is growing like anything.

By 2022, A major project in Qatar 'Lusail City' will be live. And Qatar Railways which is gona finish with in 16 years.. Al Waab City, 100 more star hotels, Educational City,Convention Centers, and hell more.

Yes !! Qatar can host the World Cup 2022!!

@rms - :) I don see King Size stadiums in your list.....

yes this world cup u see now only qatar

Infrastructures are here, money is here.............. everything is here and they proved they can undertake a big event like this when they hosted Asiad. but one thing- Want to play in world cup football as a host nation? Hmmmm! it is not fair!! first qualify to world cup then only you can qualify for bidding. In history of world cup nations get this HOT seat only after they successful qualified for world cup. So I think there is no chance for Qatar!

De_Alchemist:

You dumbass, it is obvious that they will build 'king size' stadiums !! It is difficult for me to say everything with this 1000 character space limit.. ;=P

but Olympics is entirely different from Asiad.. remember last time the olympic committee voted Qatar as a 'congested city'..

It was 3 years back luna..

And didnt you noticed the changes since 3 years? and the world cup is on 2022 !! I cant imagine the growth of Qatar by then !!! ;o)

but the growth is directly proportional to the population, traffic congestion and lack of adequate accomodation..

luna, get real..

According to study, lusail city can accommodate up to 200,000 people.. Its HUGE !!!
And The Barwa village, Pearl Qatar, etc etc.. So the accommodation thing wont be a great fuss !

And traffic, Each and every country has got traffic.. Qatar is much much better than Dubai ! And dont you see the whole roads in Qatar is dugged up .. Cant you see the bridges,roads, everything getting wider and wider? Didnt you see the 4 lane road in Dukhan? Didnt you see the 4 lane road which connects wakra and NDIA? Didnt you see the BIG curved shape bridge near Al Rayyan?

if NO, i ll take you for a 'Qatar tour' or 'Explore Qatar' drive in my BRAND NEW MAXIMA which I'm gonna get on 31st of Dec. :=)

everything sounds real.. except the last :P

Its very possible because qatar is among the countries which grows too fast in terms of infrastructure,business,culture and sports i believe it can do very well

Qatar is mutating its money of Gas into Infra structure.... and they have decided to build this country as a center for education....
Yes there ll be growth..
But wht growth we see now is not growth of the Qatar as a economy without Gas....
It is investing....
Nothing is earned from a Residential Project like Lusail, Pearl....

Barwa Commercial Avenue shall of course bring in some business houses...

the companies which are focusing on this land is Infrastructure ones...
Wht happened to Dubai now... if qatar cont. being the same...
same shall repeat here after 15-20 yrs....

Wht this country can offer when govt decides not to invest in Multi billion projects.....

where are industries ???? wht is qatar exporting to earn revenues ?????????

Saudi is much better in tht case....

yes, I don't c any reason why not

"Nothing is earned from a Residential Project like Lusail, Pearl.."

Lusail is a govt project. And of course govt will earn billions out of that. (Alche, You know that i know better ;=) Same thing with Barwa as well.

yes they can!!!

YES THEY CAN!!!!!

After all these debates about whats happening in Qatar I still feel Qatar can host the 2022 world cup. Money speaks many languages.

Kishore,,, I dont agree with u for a change,, Money is not everything,, they need to prove it with credibilty and space..
