Soft infrastructure

Dubai leads the way.

My observation.
When I visit Dubai, I do not have to fill in any immigration or customs form. They checked my passport and let me through. Dubai is the only country that have done away with the unnecessary forms asking for information (for tourist statistics and other reasons) that they do not really need. In many countries, they make you fill up a few detailed forms, but nobody bother to pay any attention.

Even Singapore require tourist to complete a form to keep statistics that are not really necessary.
