It was announced in various newspapers, then retracted some time later. Imagine being asked whereabouts in the building you lived and telling people it was the armpit/backside/crotch... :lol: |

I dread to think how many people lost money on those developments in Ajman, they are half built deserted sites now. The ones on the way to Barracuda. I wonder how many people have property here and aren't able to cover their mortgages with their rental income as well? take the Villa area for example.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bulgari...erse_publicity There has been several Watchdog programs on these fvckers. Absolute bastards.
