UAE economy is fantastic! Or a more nuanced view?
Long article and it is Arabian Business, but some interesting numbers or statements that I hadn't seen elsewhere, especially regarding schooling numbers.
Great escape? The UAE expat's dilemma - Culture & Society - ArabianBusiness.com My impression from the Qatar end is that the exodus continues. Rents are falling and people still leaving. Know a few people who share flats in Pearl / West Bay and are struggling to find replacement flatmates for there's very few new people coming in. No suggestion of stabilisation any time soon. |

An estimated 7.8 million of the country’s 9.2 million population are expats, according to the latest estimates, with Emiratis making up just 11 percent of the total. |

So a million or so Emiratis. Where are the other 400,000 from? Stateless? Comoros islands? |
