Sunday, November 30, 2003 Consumerism plus Islam equals a boomtown - New Zealand Herald "Dubai is a boomtown. It is Singapore with sand and sheikhs, a 21st-century gold rush... It is one of the most interesting places in the world to be when the President of the United States calls for a democratic Middle East. How far would Dubai have come if it had been democratic? The sheikhs do not rely on the whims of the people. None of this could have happened with bickering political parties, a three-year electoral cycle and special-interest groups." |
