Hi Kartik,
Cool well i have collected some information from KLM April magazine of April 2006.
Here is a brief of what i did till now ...its basically aiming at sustainable developments ....but i still need an answer to
Dubai is currently aiming at the newly rich, both in Asia and
the West. In the long run Dubai wants to attract some 15 million
tourists per year. These cannot be the rich anymore. How can Dubai stay
attractive for the newly rich and - at the same time - aim at tourism
for the masses?
Introduction
The United Arab Emirates is a federation of seven emirates or states, each with its own unique character and personality but yet united with a common goal and destiny. The seven emirates are; Abu Dhabi, Dubai, Sharjah, Ajman, Umm Al-Qaiwain, Ras Al-Khaimah, and Fujairah. Dubai is the second largest emirate in the U.A.E. Its total area is around 1000 square miles.

Dubai’s long term survival: tourism-the development of islands
Commodities
Much of Dubai's was previously dependant on its oil reserve but with depletion in sight, in recent years Dubai has shifted its focus towards tourism as a main source of income. All year sun sandy white beaches along the Arabian Gulf coast make Dubai an attractive place to visit or live
The extension of the cost line began with developing three islands that form the palm Islands (palm Jumeirah, palm Jebel Ali and Palm Deira). Their design allows 52- extra kilometres of coastline, along with more than 100 luxury hotels, 12,000 residential villas, 10,000shoreline apartments, luxury homes, marinas, water theme parks, restaurants, shopping malls sport facilities.
I also wrote few points on customers & their competitors that Since 2002, it has been possible for non-nationals to own freehold property in selected developments, including the Palm and world Islands. Madonna, Bill Clinton and the William sisters, David Beckham, Michael Owen and Francesco Totti, have also invested in properties.
but still working on research and way to go...but thanks for your interest....I appreciate any kind of help or comments but if you can find some thing with sources or references that would be great.
Cheers
