...sure, nobody's calling it a bust - not yet anyway. Midsized builders like Ahmed are still open for business. And a record 70,000 visitors attended Dubai's annual Cityscape property show this month, where mega-projects worth a total of some $180 billion were unveiled...
...reversal, and what does it bode for the coming days and months? Anyone claiming they know is blowing smoke. Though the brutal rout of global markets last week arose from fears the world's banking and financial markets risked total collapse in the face of the toxic credit crisis, government rescue plans detailed this week in both the U.S. and Europe mostly allayed those concerns, sparking surges on Monday and Tuesday.

Watch in awe and disgust as they pour giant industrial-sized vats...
...Natural Resources and Environment has only a few environmental inspectors, who typically must get permission from factory owners to inspect an industrial site. And when a company is found to be illegally discharging wastewater, the fines are too low - Vedan was fined several times in the past for a total of $1,400 - to be a deterrent.
