Dubai new code of conduct check it out http://uaesm.maktoob.com/up/uploads/6f8ab77275.pdf This is the subject of the thread Don't you want to fill the end of the month with it? Code of conduct with a former spy around is quite the opposite really ;) Ok Herve, give the guys some positive talk. The o...

Der Robbyg, Yr. post shows one more time that you have never been to Dubai nor Ajman/Sharjah. About Sharjah: 1) You can't buy property in Sharjah, only rent. 2) Rent charge has been also dropping there quite significantly... 3) There are barely no wealthy people. They are mostly clerks with salary ...

http://www.thenational.ae/article/20090316/NATIONAL/583101106/1010 So what do we do, let them off scot free? How about putting some common sense procedures in place to deal with it. Imprisoning people is a lose lose situation. OK point taken, but what would you suggest? I'm not a banker and far fro...

I'm changing profession guys. Look at those salaries.

I had to study my @ss off before I got my degree. Did something wrong I think...Should have become a business editor.

Can I cry now? Thnx.

There are, as far as I can find, two freehold properties in Sharjah. Sharjah Gate and Abbco Building. To say that it is a haven for clerical employees is totally wrong. I know several people who live in Sharjah and do well salary wise. These couples have 3 or 4 children so rents were affordable to ...

RobbyG

I thought something like ownership for 99 years... Thats leasehold my bloody Chief edit: to be overly clear... Sharjah doesn't allow foreigners to buy free-hold. All properties can be rented or bought! on leasehold contracts which last for 99 years. Can't make it any clearer than that. And Red Chie...

Thank you, Bob. I appreciate all your theories very much... Are you happy? Will not continue to save this important thread... You and I both know you don't have to clap for me. Its simply having a bit of respect for eachother as I have for your outlines. Keep it up and no personal attacks anymore p...

But wat wld u do if u were an investor from the west, who is'nt all that familiar with Nakheel, but invested in this project solely becuz of trump? and wen Trump advertises, he does point to actual project developement, probably Trump offices even collect deposit payments etc. I would think that su...

RobbyG

Easy easy, I just followed the offical statements.

As for Afghanistan, the Brits and Dutch have actually rebuild schools and roads. In Iraq, I wouldn't know until I dive in deeper, which I won't for now if you don't mind.

http://www.dubainews.biz/Sharjah-freehold-law-awaiting.html This mentions the proposed property law for Arab nationals, most recognizably the GCC nationals. This could exclude the non-GCC nationals from freehold opportunities which would make it racist in my opinion. This will be short-lived it tha...

RobbyG

Keep it up and no personal attacks anymore please. Keep it on substance You hypocrite! Do you think you have the exclusive rights on personal attacks? An eye for an eye, you 'non-substance' caveman. You try being reasonable without getting offensive and assumptive. You can make fun of me for sure!!...

RobbyG

I can't help you with that, though. Someone else surely can.

May I ask what company you work for?

Thanks.

RobbyG

I see I can stop writing my latest draft article as this is basically the same. This is excellent realist reporting. Dubai surely will come back, may it a bit slower and leaner in the coming years. Its the new trade center of the world. As simple as that. Financial Times (FT) says enough. Top paper.

RobbyG

They surely will. There are a few very good informed veterans out there that soon pick up your story.

I just found out you are one of the 10 percent of 1900 to be shed from LOR.

Of course, Herve might say that it will prove a damn site more difficult to LEAVE [or Escape] from Dubai later with all monies intact!! And i guess we can all silently agree that Herve may very well be right here! Sure he has a strong point for discussion. But remember, after the doom and gloom com...

Yeah dude, cos it's gonna... it'll be bigger than... so much better than... Bwahahahahah! Sorry, couldn't finish my sentence. I kept reading your post and laugh...

RobbyG

Its the new trade center of the world. As simple as that. This part. Should I inform London, New York, Singapore, Zurich, Hong Kong and Sydney? They might want to know. If I were to tell you that the trade centers of the world will move (or better: deal) more towards Dubai for instance. (which basi...

psssst Captain!! be quiet...this is one of those few times I get credit for something from caveman. Lets treasure it OK?

RobbyG

Ahumm,... back to the conference meeting...

Where were we...Ah yes

RobbyG

I would have been lost without you Cap. I'm thinking large here OK

Abu Dhabi = finance and commerce, Dubai = tourist and trade

As for vision, I don't think the Al Maktoums fall short on Abu Dhabi. Dubai is a leader in that, not to forget the greatest risk taker.

Howla.

Its just shows that I am the better person. Edited to ad: :lol: Ok poll: I say this wasn't funny at all :wink:...

I see we have the first significant error in views here. Good, makes it more interesting. I will back my things up soon. I worked with the Dutch trade association and I heard some high-level officials talk about this once. Have to dive deeper to back up my arguments and be more elaborate. Until that...

People, did you guys fail to notice a couple of vacant spots ! Good time to apply I think. A good buddy of mine has just started to work freelance with them. Never bothered to ask how much they pay him. Right about now I wish I was a journalist :( I think you better fit with your own company supply...

RobbyG

So the economic downfall is noticeable in that sector too.
Can you give an estimate in the decline of tourists compared to last year?

Thnx.

RobbyG

You're all a bunch of cry-babies. I love Dubai because it has given me lots of cash, and if I lost my job tomorrow then I'd go home disappointed but happy, because I didn't spend all my money on porsches and 300K villas. If you're here and have a job you are doing well. Have you ever considered tha...

RobbyG

Thanks for this piece of reality.
