The future in Dubai


Dubai or dubai city is located on the northern tip of the united arab emeritus on the persian gulf. it has been ruled
by the al maktoum dynasty since 1833 and has existed in its modern state since 1971. the current ruler is
mohammed bin rashid al maktoum, who is also the prime minister and vice president of the united arab emirates.
the rather small city has a population of 1.6 million people and a 37 billion USD economy based largely on trade,
manufacturing and financial services. contrary to popular belief petrol and natural gas only make up a small
percentage of revenues.
the city has gained world-wide attention in the past few years because of its booming economy and ambitious
architectural projects. with a focus on business and tourism, the city is ramping up construction on an
unprecedented level. in fact, dubai is said to be home to 15% to 25% of the world's 125,000 construction cranes.
don't think that the architectural expansion is over, because a slew of new project are on the table and in
the works as we speak.

Dubai Bubble



No one can say that Dubai is not forward thinking in their plans for the emirate. There seems to be a never ending supply of new developments and staggering construction projects. An interesting statistic I came across recently –

25 percent of the world’s operating construction cranes are currently in Dubai - working. That’s 30,000 cranes at the moment.

Some are beginning to question the sustainability of all this, especially when you consider all the construction is in the desert - with limited water supply and every single project putting more and more pressure on a limited infrastructure. Money week made an interesting comment recently – “When a property developer starts handing out free BMWs and Bentleys with every apartment sale, you can be sure that a property bubble isn’t far off popping.”

This was in response to a recent promotion run by DAMAC which promised a free BMW or Bentley with every condominium sale. But they do like to do things on a large scale in Dubai. Whether this can continue indefinitely or not remains to be seen. Unlikely we feel.
