Fastest Growing City on the Planet

[Vitaliy]

In many areas, it is not easy to see Dubai's sky without at least one crane in your view; Industry experts cautiously estimate that 15 to 25 per cent of the world's cranes are in Dubai. Some US$ 90 BILLION are on-going in Dubai alone.

When a city is jammed with numerous oil barons and shieks, it's not surprising. That said, I hear it's beautifull and I'd love to go there!!

what would you do with your own island anyways *looks into piggy bank*
Do you get to name it? All MFK members could chip in and buy 1 and call it MFK island

My dad leaves July 23 for Dubai. I never understood what the big deal was until a few weeks ago. Tons of money in the area.

All the best.

I have relatives trying to sell their island. It's in the South Pacific, crystal clear waters up to ten meters with nice sand beaches. I say we go for it. I'll chip in any commisions on the transfer of title to MFK
