I read somewhere that Dubai has something like 14% of all the cranes in the world.
Its unfortunate they will be a broke nation in 25 years once their oil dries up.
Enjoy it while you can I suppose
:no:
LOL.
a very small percent of their money comes from oil
Stop upsetting the internets Micah!
Fail.
A majority of the emirate’s revenues are from trade, real estate and financial services.[7] Revenues from petroleum and natural gas contribute less than 6% (2006)[8] of Dubai’s US$ 37 billion economy (2005).[9] Real estate and construction, on the other hand, contributed 22.6% to the economy in 2005, before the current large-scale construction boom.[10] Dubai has attracted world-wide attention through innovative real estate projects [11] and sports events. This increased attention, coinciding with its emergence as a world business hub, has also highlighted human rights issues concerning its largely foreign workforce.[12]
Out of curiosity, where does the money come from?
EDIT - jay answered…
I know that Dubai has a BOOMING tourist industry, which is most of the reason why they build these ridiculous things in the first place.
It’s like a giant amuesment park.
WTF are you talking about
