Ken Wise - you are wrong
Reader comment on item: Dubai's Dramatic Drop
in response to reader comment: Not Quite That Bad
Submitted by B.K. Nambiar (United Arab Emirates), Mar 18, 2009 at 06:31
"The "flight" and "abandoned cars" theme is myth" - this statement is either a lie or a temporary suspension of disbelief. Local media and airport officials reported that abandoned cars in UAE airports are in thousands. Thousands of workers have lost jobs including my brother who was working in an international bank and the trend is continuing.
Why Mr. Ken Wise wants to deny a naked truth where anyone here can see in front of their eyes. Economic crises is a trend experiencing all over the world. Dubai is not be blamed for this situation.
