Smokin, the country is built on the shifting Sands of the East......
Debt might just be part of that shift. |

America has a lot to be worried about! Since it's the Chinese that are mostly funding the Americans, China have a lot to worry about too. No one is entirely safe in these times, but at the end of the day, life will go on - probably. Last edited by Chris - Melb; 27 Nov 2009 at 02:01. |

America's enormous debt has not stopped the American government from providing substantial bailouts.
Dubai government makes a contribution to whose coffers? |

I don't think Abu Dhabi's exposure to Dubai's problems is a dealbreaker for the Abu Dhabi round, if that's what this thread is a reference to.

Wow, the problems of one completely seperate Emirate being used to infer problems with another.
Let's dumb it down a bit, this is like assuming that because Wakefield Park is in trouble, Winton is too. Oh, wait.... |

Effectively, Abu Dhabi is coming in and taking over Dubai, keeping it afloat. Abu Dhabi has taken a grow slowly approach and built on more solid foundations.
