Hong Kong and Singapore have real governments that abide by the rule of law -- British common law, that is. You could look it up.
Wake me up when Dubai can say the same. Sharia law doesn't count.
I don't need to look it up. I travel to all those places regularly. You have absolutely no idea what you are talking about. If you ever make to to Dubai, buy yourself a scotch, have a seat at the pool, admire the latest bikini fashions on the women sunning themselves all around you....and whine to me again about UAE's sharia law.
