Fastest Growing City in the World! Middle East 2.0 - Dubai

Back



As seen on 60 Minutes Dubai Inc. reported by Steve Kroft. The Biggest Story in the World --- Dubai - home of the world's largest construction site and one of the most amazing stories in our world today. While millions flock to Dubai annually, from an American perspective it's "the Middle East we don't know". Still surrounded in misunderstanding by so many in the US, the massively positive story of Dubai and Middle East 2.0 is the real story of change in the Gulf. It is a story of peaceful, constructive excellence and the pursuit of dreams. A story very much in line with true American values. Dubai is a city in the emirate of Dubai which is part of the United Arab Emirates or UAE in the Persian Gulf. The UAE is part of the GCC, Gulf Cooperative Council, an economic group of nations along the lines of the European Union (EU). The GCC includes the United Arab Emirates, Oman, Qatar, Kuwait, Bahrain and Saudi Arabia. The growth in Dubai is representative of the growth in the region. While many in America associate the Arab world, the Middle East, the Gulf or sadly Islam and Muslims with terror and terrorism, war and violence, the real story of the Middle East is what is going on with construction, commerce, art, development and millions of people making a better life for themselves. There is clearly a big difference between the perceptions of Iraq or other areas in the region and reality. Some people tend to think that Iran, the UAE, Iraq, Afghanistan, Pakistan and Saudi Arabia are all the same - the region is as varied as the Americas. Richard Branson, Tiger Woods, Martha Stewart, Madonna and Donald Trump all have business ventures in Dubai. The area is known mostly for real estate but many other projects continue there daily.

Msybe because the Americans are living in land that they stole that they are doomed to live in ghettos.

The U.S could never hope to achieve such greatness without slavery. Us Arabs are so much better. And some may say it's because we have oil money, well the U.S is the richest country in the world and has a higher unit of currency then the U.A.E. What's their excuse?

every country should not critcize... if Dubai will never give oils to the other country what will happen?.. of course! they will invent another Power source of technology! for example a Water powered car... they closed this case because oils may be useless...' so they want it to make it fair.. we shouldn't discriminate of every countries specialties...

I wonder what's going to happen when the UAE's oil wells dry up.

Thats why they are building in such rapid ways Corocco1. When the oil runs dry (in Dubai as least where right now revenues from oil = less than 6%) they will have tourism and business. Good luck to them.

Dubai is a great city, but to even think about trying to surpass New York City's title as the world's greatest is just silly.
