Dubai airport and the branded Rolex
Yes, how rich the Dubai city?
The Wikipedia describes:
Revenues from petroleum and natural gas contribute less than 6% (2006) of Dubai’s US$ 37 billion economy (2005). A majority of the emirate’s revenues are from the Jebel Ali free zone authority (JAFZA) and, increasingly, from tourism and other service-oriented businesses. Dubai has attracted world-wide attention through innovative real estate projects and sports events.
But for me, its indicator was quite simple: I saw all clocks in the Dubai International Airport (even in the toilets!) are branded name’s Rolex! Wheew!

Wow,how rich they are and how poor we are…when will we be like them?We have problem with revenue and attitude of society.we will not be a rich country because many corruptors here,and if someday we are able to put clocks in airport or bus/train station we need more securities to keep them save,expecially in toilets.I quarantee many indonesian people are suprise to see clocks are free to be stolen,our culcure is to be thief,be proud getting money by corruption.

Cooll!!
December 11th, 2007 at 8:28 pmAs if those Rolex are mine, I will sell them all. Hahhaa
But the points are they have huge amount of money.
How comes? Absolutely oil money.
If the oil prices don’t hike like at this moment, they will not waste money like this.
By the way, I had write an article about being political blogger in Indonesia. And I’m making Mr.Budi as a good example of full-time proffesional blogger. Your comment will be appreciated.
Many Thanks,

Don’t you think that because of the “ROLEX” brand written, it may be some kind of sponsor??

Either way, Dubai is indeed a rich country
