“The French people are not happy with the latest event of the French governement deciding to build a branch of the Louvre in Abu Dhabi; they believe this museum is part of France and giving it away is like giving part of France too. This is the first time in my life I hear about a museum becoming like a McDonalds!” writes [1]Lebanese blogger Fonzi, who lives in Kuwait.
