Die meis- ten Europäer genießen ihren wohlverdienten Urlaub in heimatlichen Gefilden. Doch in diesem Jahr kehren viele Expat-Familien den VAE für immer den Rücken – in den meisten Fällen jedoch nicht freiwillig. Fluggesellschaften verkaufen vermehrt One-Way-Tickets. Umzugsfirmen sind im Dauerstress. Ziel: Heimat. Zukunft: ungewiss. Geld wird meist nur noch in homöopathischen Dosen ausgegeben, und so spart sich der eine oder andere selbst den Sommerurlaub. Für alle, die da bleiben, gibt es in den Emiraten auch in den heißen Monaten viel zu erleben und zu entdecken. Denn im Sommer hat man endlich für viele Dinge Zeit, die im Laufe des Jahres auf dem Schreibtisch liegenbleiben oder als guter Vor- satz auf ein unbestimmtes Datum verschoben werden. Tauchausflüge, Hotelübernachtungen und Skikurse waren noch nie so günstig. Mehr Tipps finden Sie in unserem Bericht „Sommer in den Emiraten“. Wer sich seines Hausrats entledigen möchte oder eine preiswerte Alternative zu gängigen Wohnausstattern sucht, der sollte dem „Dubai Flea Market“ unbedingt einen Besuch abstatten. An jedem ersten Samstag im Monat lockt der Flohmarkt tausende Besucher in den Al Safa Park zur Schnäppchenjagd. In den Sommermonaten Juni bis September findet dieser aufgrund der extremen Hitze in der „Al Safa School Hall“ statt. So wechseln Babybett, Bilder, Bücher & Co zum kleinen Preis den Besitzer. Grundkenntnisse im Feilschen und Verhandeln Entdecken Sie können gleichzeitig trainiert und ausgebaut werden. Wer dann noch genug Kraft und Energie übrig hat, der kann gleich nach einer neuen Wohnung Ausschau halten, denn Apartments und Villen wurden schon lange nicht mehr so günstig zur Miete oder zum Kauf angeboten. Der Sommer mit seinen extremen Temperaturen hat auch die Spieler der deutschen Fuß- den Sommer ballnationalmannschaft bei ihrer Ankunft Ende Mai in Dubai überrascht. 47 Grad und hohe Luftfeuchtigkeit sorgten für ein ganz neues Trainingsgefühl auf emiratischem Rasen. Im Schweiße ihres Angesichts schaffte es die Mannschaft um Trainer Joachim Löw und Kapitän Sebastian Schweinsteiger, selbst bei subtropischem Klima 90 Minuten lang das Spiel zu be- in den stimmen und besiegte den Gastgeber mit 7:2 (4:0). Das Freundschaftsspiel gegen die VAE im Rahmen der Asien-Reise zählte unbestritten zu den diesjährigen Höhepunkten für die deutsche Gemeinschaft in den Emiraten. 7.000 Fans, darunter auch extra aus Deutschland eingefloge- ne Anhänger, feuerten die aktuelle Nummer 2 der Fußball-Weltrangliste von der ersten bis Emiraten zur letzten Minute im Al Maktoum-Stadion an. Der Deutsche Fußball-Bund unterzeichnete außerdem ein Kooperationsabkommen mit dem emiratischen Fußballverband zur Nachwuchs- förderung, Trainer- und Schiedsrichterfortbildung und zum Austausch von Marketing- und Medienaktivitäten. Dass die bilateralen Beziehungen der beiden Länder auch außerhalb von Fußballstadien immer mehr an Bedeutung gewinnen, davon zeugte die Gründung der Deutsch-Emiratischen Industrie- und Handelskammer. Sogar Wirtschaftsminister von Guttenberg wohnte der feier- lichen Eröffnung am 9. Mai in Abu Dhabi bei. Wir alle sind gespannt, wie sich die wirtschaft- liche Lage nach den ruhigen Sommermonaten und dem Ramadan entwickeln wird. Vorsichtiger Optimismus ist schon jetzt zu spüren. Und viele, die den Sommer in den Emiraten verbringen oder nach dem Urlaub wieder zurückkehren, hat das Formel 1-Fieber bereits gepackt. Der Countdown für den Großen Preis von Abu Dhabi läuft und eines steht jetzt schon fest: Auch der Herbst wird heiß in den Emiraten!

  • Implementing Sustainable Construction Practices in Dubai – a Policy Instrument Assessment
    Master Thesis in Built Environment (15 credits) Implementing Sustainable Construction Practices in Dubai – a policy instrument assessment Marco Maguina Academic Supervisor: Catarina Thormark Spring Semester 2011 Master Thesis in Built Environment Implementing Sustainable Construction Practices in Dubai – a policy instrument assessment Author: Marco Maguina Faculty: Culture and Society School: Malmö University Master Thesis: 15 credits Academic Supervisor: Catarina Thormark Examiner: Johnny Kronvall Maguina, Marco 2 Master Thesis in Built Environment SUMMARY Recognized as one of the main obstacles to sustainable development, climate change is caused and accelerated by the greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions generated from all energy end-user sectors. The building sector alone consumes around 40% of all produced energy worldwide. Reducing this sector’s energy consumption has therefore come into focus as one of the key issues to address in order to meet the climate change challenge. Implementing sustainable construction practices, such as LEED, can significantly reduce the building’s energy and water consumption. Prescribing these practices may however encounter several barriers that can produce other than intended results. Since the beginning of 2008 Dubai mandates a LEED certification for the better part of all new constructions developed within the emirate, nevertheless the success of this regulation is debatable. This thesis identifies the barriers the introduction of the sustainable construction practices in Dubai faced and analyses the reasons why the regulatory and voluntary policy instruments were not effective in dealing with these barriers. Understanding these barriers as well as the merits and weaknesses of the policy instruments will help future attempts to introduce sustainable construction practices. To put the research into context a literature review of relevant printed and internet sources has been performed.
