Februar 2009 www.entdecke-vae.de Ad Ad Entdecke VAE Intercultural Seminars for Business People Interkulturelle Seminare für Geschäftsleute Ein neues Jahr hat begonnen und wir nehmen Rückblick auf ein ereignisreiches Jahr 2008 mit einem turbulenten Herbst, ausgelöst durch die globale Finanz­ krise. Noch scheint die Sonne in den Emiraten, doch haben sich in letzter Zeit auch viele Unwetterwolken am Himmel gezeigt. Aber bringt der Regen auch diesmal Wachstum und Fruchtbarkeit in die Wüste? Eines ist sicher, die nächs­ ten Monate werden für uns alle sehr spannend. Gewitterstimmung in Dubai Als ich vor fünf Jahren das erste Mal vom Flughafen über die „Sheikh Zayed Road“ nach Dubai fuhr, nahm ich diese Stadt als eine große anonyme Baustelle wahr. Als „Liebe auf den ersten Blick“ hätte ich jenen Moment nicht bezeichnet. Es bedurfte eher vieler Blicke, ehe ich mein Herz für Dubai öffnen konnte. Doch mittlerweile bin ich auf jeden Baukran persönlich stolz und berichte staunenden Besuchern mit viel Leidenschaft von den ehrgeizigen Plänen der Wüstenmetropole. Während sich Architekten und Designer in Dubai austobten, wirkte lange Zeit die Hauptstadt Abu Dhabi im Kontrast dazu eher verschlafen und konservativ. Doch wenn man heute nach Abu Dhabi fährt, dann ist kaum noch ein Unterschied zwischen den beiden Städten festzustellen: Die Mietpreise haben sich angeglichen, Autokolonnen verstopfen die Straßen und Baukräne ragen in den Himmel. So manch einer bezeichnet Desert Islands seine neue Heimat sogar als „Fünf-Sterne-Ghetto“ ohne Seele und Authentizität. Das sorgt nicht unbedingt für helle Begeisterung bei der Bevölkerung – weder bei der einheimischen, noch bei der zugezogenen. Das Titelthema unserer letzten Ausgabe hieß deshalb „Bye Bye Morgenland?“ und bezog sich auf die Verwestlichung Dubais. Andererseits bringt dieser Entwicklungsprozess auch viele positive Aspekte mit sich, die uns abendländischen Gastar- beitern den Aufenthalt in diesem Teil der Welt erst möglich gemacht haben. Das Erdöl hat Entdecken nicht nur die Bauweise und das Tempo der Stadtentwicklung verändert, sondern auch die Lebensweise. So hat vor allem die wohlhabende Oberschicht – und zu der zählt wohl der Großteil der Einheimischen – kulturelle Werte und Elemente des Westens angenommen. Der scheinbar unaufhaltsame Aufstieg der „Boomtown“ Dubai wird allerdings seit Ende Sie die Schönheit vergangenen Jahres durch das regelmäßige Eintreffen von Hiobsbotschaften der weltweiten Finanzmärkte erschüttert. Plötzlich fürchten die Menschen auch hier um ihren Arbeitsplatz. Es finden sich kaum Käufer für Immobilienprojekte, da die Banken keine Kredite mehr geben. Ausländische Investoren ziehen ihr Geld ab und Immobilienmakler suchen händeringend nach zahlungskräftigen Kunden. Damit hat niemand gerechnet. Arabiens Die deutschen Arbeitnehmer und Arbeitgeber in den VAE plagen noch ganz andere Sorgen: Am 9. August 2008 ist das Doppelbesteuerungsabkommen zwischen Deutschland und den Vereinigten Arabischen Emiraten (VAE) außer Kraft getreten. Somit sind seit dem 1. Januar 2009 sowohl deutsche Firmen und deutsche Arbeitnehmer in den VAE als auch emiratische Investoren in Deutschland von einer erhöhten Steuerlast betroffen. Was bleibt, ist die Hoffnung auf die Vernunft der Politiker. Ansonsten werden die VAE für viele deutsche Experten und Firmen als Markt uninteressant und das emiratische Geld wird nicht mehr in Deutschland sondern in steuerfreundlicheren Ländern investiert. Die Logik dahinter erschließt sich uns nicht. Doch was haben wir hier gelernt? Am Ende wird immer alles gut, auch wenn das manchmal viel Zeit kostet und starker Nerven bedarf. Wir haben uns entschlossen, die Zukunft positiv zu sehen und einen Schritt nach vorn zu wagen. Beginnend mit dieser Ausgabe wird Discover ME zukünftig zweimonatlich auf Deutsch über die neusten Ereignisse aus den Bereichen Kultur, Wirtschaft, Immobilien, Sport und Lebensart für die deutschsprachige Gemeinschaft in den VAE und im Nahen Osten berichten. Dadurch können wir bei der Themenauswahl mehr in die Tiefe gehen und eine größere Vielfalt anbieten. Wir hoffen, dass Ihnen unser neues Konzept gefällt und Sie weiterhin Spaß und Freude daran haben, gemeinsam mit uns die Schönheit des Orients mit all seinen Facetten zu ent- decken.

    The venue The Dubai International Convention and Exhibition Centre has become the most successful venue in the Middle East. With its state of the art facilities, its easy access to and from the airport, shops, restaurants and hotels, it is the ideal setting for the DOMOTEX middle east 2006 carpets and floor coverings exhibition. Dubai - Centre of industrial development The development of the first Free Zone 20 years ago was an important step in creating the future of Dubai. Today, the Jebel Ali Free Zone is the biggest Free Zone in the Middle East with more than 8,000 registered companies. Newer Free Zones such as Media City, Internet City and Knowledge Village are rapidly growing due to the increase in demand from the outside world. Soon, Dubai will develop Free Zones for publishing, printing, manufacturing and Bio-technology to meet the needs of its consumers as well as to maintain its key position amongst rest of the world. The city has a healthy mixture of small and middle-sized businesses as well as wholesale and retail on many different levels. Dubai actually hosts more than one million people from over 130 different countries, with an expatriate rate of more than 70 percent. What has assisted in the region's growth is a newly formed law, enabling expatriates to purchase their own property. This has increased the number of investors and expatriates establishing their private homes here in the UAE, from all over the world. Booking details Space only – USD $315 per square metre. Shell Scheme – USD $365 per square metre.

  • Dubai 2020: Dreamscapes, Mega Malls and Spaces of Post-Modernity
    Dubai 2020: Dreamscapes, Mega Malls and Spaces of Post-Modernity Dubai’s hosting of the 2020 Expo further authenticates its status as an example of an emerging Arab city that displays modernity through sequences of fragmented urban- scapes, and introvert spaces. The 2020 Expo is expected to reinforce the image of Dubai as a city of hybrid architectures and new forms of urbanism, marked by technologically advanced infrastructural systems. This paper revisits Dubai’s spaces of the spectacle such as the Burj Khalifa and themed mega malls, to highlight the power of these spaces of repre- sentation in shaping Dubai’s image and identity. INTRODUCTION MOHAMED EL AMROUSI Initially, a port city with an Indo-Persian mercantile community, Dubai’s devel- Abu Dhabi University opment along the Creek or Khor Dubai shaped a unique form of city that is con- stantly reinventing itself. Its historic adobe courtyard houses, with traditional PAOLO CARATELLI wind towers-barjeel sprawling along the Dubai Creek have been fully restored Abu Dhabi University to become heritage houses and museums, while their essential architectural vocabulary has been dismembered and re-membered as a simulacra in high-end SADEKA SHAKOUR resorts such as Madinat Jumeirah, the Miraj Hotel and Bab Al-Shams. Dubai’s Abu Dhabi University interest to make headlines of the international media fostered major investment in an endless vocabulary of forms and fragments to create architectural specta- cles. Contemporary Dubai is experienced through symbolic imprints of multiple policies framed within an urban context to project an image of a city offers luxu- rious dreamscapes, assembled in discontinued urban centers.
