United Arab Emirates




The United Arab Emirates is a constitutional federation of seven
emirates; Abu Dhabi, Dubai, Sharjah, Ajman, Umm al-Qaiwain, Ras
al-Khaimah and Fujairah. The federation was formally established on
2 December 1971.
The United Arab Emirates (UAE) occupies an area of 83,600 sq km
along the south-eastern tip of the Arabian Peninsula. Qatar lies to the
west, Saudi Arabia to the south and west, and Oman to the north and
east. The capital and the largest city of the federation, Abu Dhabi, is
located in the emirate of the same name.
Four-fifths of the UAE is desert, yet it is a country of contrasting
United Arab Emirates History




The Perpetual Maritime Truce was an agreement signed circa 1850 by the Arab
sheikdoms and the British denoting an important time in the history of the Arabian
Peninsula. This new truce merged decades-old truces were considered to be
temporary solutions.
The truce was essentially a recognition by the sheikhdoms of British control in the
Persian Gulf and the allowance of the shipping industry to operate in the Gulf without
any interference. This part of the history of the Arabian Peninsula marks a paramount
time in United Arab Emirates history as well. These collective sheikhdoms would
eventually be known as the seven emirates
including Dubai, Sharjah,Fujairah, Ajman, Umm Al Quwain, Ras Al Khaimah, and the
United Arab Emirates
United Arab Emirates is one of the fastest developing countries in the World.
Rich in culture, the UAE has become tourist hotspot in recent years, charter
your next flight and enjoy the weather and recreation that UAE offers. The
country has become less dependent on natural resources and concentrated on
the service trade, providing a strong tourist market. Nationwide, there is
currently $350 billion worth of active construction projects. Such projects
include the Burj Dubai, which is slated to become the world's tallest
building, Dubai World Central International Airport which, when completed, will
be the most expensive airport ever built, and the three Palm Islands, the largest
artificial islands in the world. Other projects include the Dubai Mall which is the
world's largest shopping mall, and a man-made archipelago called The World

Following the news of Etihad, a United Arab Emirates airline that is
reducing its carbon footprint, a number of companies based in the UAE
are following suit and are making green efforts thanks to help from
firms like the Dubai-based EcoVentures.
0O De Rose in Dubai is a one-stop-shop for interiors, home accessories and fashion.
Dubai may be home to the biggest mall in the world and consumerism might possibly
be in the city’s very DNA -- but there are alternatives to chain store shopping for luxury
labels. The city has a growing independent shopping scene, hidden in detached villas
or smaller community malls, that will ensure you go home with something more
exciting than the ubiquitous Gucci, Prada or Chanel items.
•Related article: Dubai's authentic local cuisines
These independent boutiques, which have sprung up over the last decade, are owned
by both expats and Emiratis who are keen to bring smaller designer labels to the city
or to launch local talent. If you want to discover Dubai’s more creative side, here are
the stand outs:
For vintage: Bambah and The Zoo
Taking the “his-and-hers” concept literally, Bambah and The Zoo are two separate
stores in one chic villa opposite the rather sad Dubai Zoo. Bambah is a beautifully
decorated vintage clothing store, with women’s clothes and accessories helpfully
grouped by decade and artfully arranged on the owner’s grandmother’s furniture. The
Zoo is home to funky men’s T-shirts, quirky gadgets and nostalgic memorabilia like
retro telephones.
The United Arab Emirates (UAE) and the Australian
State of New South Wales (NSW) enjoy a strong
relationship with many opportunities for growth in trade
and investment. Talking about this, Mr. O’Farrell said, “I
visited the UAE in May this year to personally deliver the
message that my Government is committed to
strengthening the relationship between NSW and the
UAE.I was pleased that the senior government and
business officials I met were keen to learn more about
NSW and the opportunities for us both. This visit was my
first to the region as Premier of NSW and was also
symbolic in emphasising the importance of our State’s
Head to Dubai’s older backstreets and
neighbourhoods to uncover tasty and inexpensive
local eats. (Phil Weymouth/LPI)
Dubai may have a love of all things glitzy and glam,
but traditional, street-style food is still very present in
this air-conditioned shopping, eating and drinking
paradise. At 40 years young, Dubai is already home to
a multicultural melee, and unlike other global cities
where one native dish reigns supreme, Dubai’s
signature cuisine is as varied as the globe. The many
nationalities that have flocked to Dubai have not left
their cooking pots at home.
United Arab Emirate's Reliance on Desalination Spells
Water Disaste
Desalination, a fuel-intensive process for purifying water, costs
UAE about $18 million each day. And while financial resources are
there to continue to import the natural gas needed to power the
desalination plants, environmental and political resources for the
wasteful and illogical practice are growing thin. Reuters
reports economists and researchers are warning that a new
alternative to desalination as well as significant conservation
measures are needed to protect the UAE from the vulnerabilities
associated with a dependence on desalination as a water source.
Currently, around 60% of water supplies are drawn from
groundwater pumping with the rest coming from desalination.
However, as groundwater supplies shrink, the dependence upon
desalination grows. Experts warn that

it access to the Israeli-built Eros B satellite and its high-resolution
imagery, in addition to services already received from the Eros A. In
2006, a contract was signed with ImageSat International, which owns
and operates Eros A and B, which are similar to Israel's Ofek
