More Crazy Statistics
The floating population or daytime people of Dubai has evidently swollen by about one million, so what about the night time people I wonder?

Are they saying that two million actually live here, and another one million float in for the day, and then leave again? How do they get here? By car?? From where? Sharjah?
As you say.......... crazy.
