    Another issue is how the city is growing so fast that the infrastructure can't keep up, leading to a lot of traffic jams. Lack of public transport into many areas. But in general it's the best base to have as an entrepreneur these days. Low tax, digitized government infrastructure, safety and direct flights everywhere.

      My wife is a doctor, actually she invited me to come to Dubai and i dont regret it ! if you are a doctor you will live the best days in your life, so many privileges here, and the country respects the status of doctors, also expect a very high paying job, my wife have 4 years in UAE working as doctor and we are already millionaires lol, she is making $220k per year, all tax free, and we come from a poor country so we already bought a big villa in our home country, and 3 apartments, and for some relatives we bough some cheap apartment to 3 of them, and now we are just enjoying Dubai, its like there is so many money that you dont know where to spend, and we are not the kind of persons that will buy gold and show off or something .

    I just don't buy this at all. Maybe if you're already rich, Dubai is convenient. But there is no real opportunity in Dubai, not for normal people.
    Yes, Dubai is motivated to make the city attractive. Maybe they will chose to make the city more liberal, to meet that goal. Maybe they won't.
    Dubai also has another dual goal: do not disturb the rich ruling class. If there is a conflict between 'making the city attractive' to westerners, or _really_ threatening the power of the elite, this conflict will be resolved in favor the elite, 100% of the time. Foreign Nationals are very specifically made to be powerless, in Dubai, except as customers.
