Yep Hands up things are dire here. This is why i disagree with Sage when he says give the UAE a break. At least we (UK) are public in our admission that it is as dire as dire can get. Thankfully we are allowed to openly question our government. In contrast, sadly no one is allowed to critise the UAE...

Any details if it's not a secret?

Google Britain Wealth/GDP therein will be your answer.

If you come up with the press release by the Central Bank i already have a copy of it. It is seriously open to interptretation mate and as such HSBC and LTSB have assumed it to read, it does not apply to foreign banks in the UAE. I agree with them. I am certainly not going to take a chance, i prefer...

Kid it is futile debating this with you.

Sage Flats Posted by Saeid on Tuesday 3 February 2009 at 22:18 UAE time We stopped payments on two flats. Lost 120K. But it was a good decision.

and it will continue to grow and grow. see my post above, i bet within 6 months there will be hardly any residential construction in progress as more and more people pull the plug on their purchases.

Read books youself after heavy meal... I don't need them to know that major bloody battles of the "War in Europe" took place on the Eastern Front. Read something about a 900 days siege of S. Petersburg when more one million civilians had starved to death, Stalingrad battle and tank's batt...

soz double post

the whole system is a complete and utter mess. the phrase "shut the gate after the horse has bolted" applies

The difference between us and the kid is that we know its bad, its no big secret.

Brit bashing shouldn't bother us. At lease we are realistic and take it on the nose. Like kids post about Britain from the times. No probs, we read about it here in our papers and on the TV. He is only telling us something we already know. On the other hand and in contrast to Dubai, we have some num...

we got one, both my lads can ride it. Tis a bit like riding a bike.

free speech like Sage said it is something we pride ourselves on. UaeKid and Muppetbanglyboy probably wont understand the concept of free speech in their own countries. And Kid, before you make comment, show me an article in any Gulf Paper that makes any form of critisism of Shiek Mo and i will take...

20,000 Indians are being shipped out next week. Air India is putting on extra flights

Barasti Rules

Bribery is extremely common here. The company I work for narrowly missed a big scandal when one of the big guys was taking bribes for projects. Luckily, we caught him and fired his A$$ Thats the problem, you fired the guy, but you didn't prosecute him, this would help to stop the corruption when pe...
