Dubai building big name for itself - The Persian Gulf emirate is showing off its diversified economy with soaring towers and amazing resorts. - Los Angeles Times
Excerpt:
"Last week's announcement that Dubai will be the site of a new $2.2-billion Universal theme park is only the latest sign that the small Persian Gulf emirate thinks big.
In just 15 years, with the help of hundreds of thousands of imported laborers, the rulers of Dubai have built a modern city of skyscrapers, gleaming hotels and 10-lane highways along its desert coastline. Some estimate that one-fifth of the world's construction cranes are working in Dubai."
