IT didn’t take long after touching down in Munich last week to see that things had changed since the last time I was in the southern part of Germany. Granted that was way back in 1986 when it was still West Germany, but this new Germany was far more cosmopolitan.

For a start, I was flying in via Qatar and a startling majority of those causing a bottleneck at the immigration counters were either Eastern Europeans or of Pakistani/Arabic descent.
