The Life of Luxury in Dubai
Overview
Dubai, part of the United Arab Emirates (UAE), exemplifies how oil wealth can be used to transform society. Once a humble fishing port, it has evolved into a city of skyscrapers and cutting-edge attractions, making it a prime destination for tourists and business executives alike.
From Modest Beginnings to Modern Marvel
The United Arab Emirates, a federation of seven emirates formed in 1971, spans 32,000 square miles. Dubai, the second largest emirate after Abu Dhabi, covers about 1,000 square miles. It was initially established as a fishing village in the early 19th century by the Bani Yas tribe led by the Maktoum family, who continue to rule today. Historically, Dubai's economy centered around agriculture, fishing, and pearl diving.
An Economic Transformation
The discovery of oil in 1966 marked a turning point. Unlike many regions where oil wealth remains concentrated, Dubai invested in national development. Sheikh Rashid bin Saeed Al Maktoum was instrumental in this transformation, promoting industrial ventures to reduce dependency on oil revenues. Initiatives like the Aluminium and Cement factories and the establishment of the Jebel Ali Free Trade Zone, one of the world’s largest, attracted global companies such as General Motors, BP, and Daewoo.
A Global Hub for Tourism and Business
Dubai's appeal extends to both tourists and business leaders. Recognized as the Middle East's top tourist destination, it hosts events like the annual Dubai Shopping Festival and the Dubai Air Show. Notable attractions include the world’s tallest skyscraper, the unique undersea hotel, and indoor skiing at Ski Dubai Dome.
World-Class Infrastructure
The Dubai International Airport is renowned as one of the world’s leading transit hubs, managing over 7.3 million passengers annually. With a growth rate of 12%, it surpasses other global airports in expansion. In anticipation of receiving Airbus A380s starting in April 2007, the Emirates airline is set to expand its crew, hiring 8,000 new members and investing $20 million in its training center.
Conclusion
Dubai's blend of cultural heritage and futuristic innovation makes it a unique and luxurious destination. Its visionary development strategies and commitment to diversifying its economy continue to position Dubai as a global leader in luxury, tourism, and business.
