    Right...Currently in progress in Dubai:
    A man made island shaped like a Palm tree. Biggest artificial island ever.
    When that is finished, guess what...Another even bigger palm tree island.
    Ow and lets not forget the World. Yes, they are building the world. Just some tiny islands that are shaped like the world(a little)

    And staying at the Buruj El Arab or w/e costs 6000 a night. They have a heli platform at the top where 2 tennisplayers had a match just for fun.

    But lets not forget. Most people in Dubai ar poor as hell. Its like NY with the bronx under an invisibility cloak. No one really ever sees the poor side of Dubai. But children(around 12 or less) are used as Jockeys for horsetracks. So i think that makes Dubai the only Huge city with childlabor.

    Dubai ain't that great. You can't conclude that Dubai is a amazing country by some buildings and some tourist attractions. I lived there, a lot of poor people. See the movie "Syriana" to really see how it is.

    I never heard of Dubia, maybe cause my friends don't goto the Middle east or talk about it.
    Some High schools get left out of everything.
    But this sounds like a oil mining city considering it's in the Middle east.

    heh - its surprising to find 'dubai' here in GameRenders:)

    I live there - i tell you now - it's a rich ass place.. you'll lose all your money .. like literally >_<! I've been broke (with allowance) for about... a few months now :P

    As for the weather here - so fricking hot.. you'll boil - right now we have the best weather (SpRING) but when it comes to summer - damn... you'll become a melted ice cream :P
