In 2002 Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum of Dubai had a vision
to create the city of the future. In doing this and creating a
truly cosmopolitan and global society, an international community
would be required, and so the Sheikh decided to allow foreign investors
to purchase property on Dubai soil.
Dubai and the UAE's future is focused upon creating a business
and tourism environment second to none which centres around incoming
foreign investment from commercial institutions and individual
investors.
