There was a recent little modern marvels or engineering show where the UAE was building artificial islands etc too build homes on . In that show there was a gem of a comment made by the emir. He was putting the UAE’s dollars towards tourism etc as the oil revenue was going too dry up in the next few years....2015 I believe was referenced and they knew they needed too alter that country’s major source of income too tourism vs oil .

I can not remember the exact show yet it was where they were building the islands in the shape of palms, and the USA individual states, a set of islands in the shape of a world map etc ...........

That comment by the Emir was what I keyed on , not sure of what he meant yet I heard it.

Aside from that here is a neat rant not associated with that show.

Stay safe !
