Off We Go to Fairy-Fairy-Fairytail, am i right?
If You think about the present world economy situation, as You take a view on the surgeoning oil prices, you have to make a consequence: Dubai will be in bigger blossom in the near future, in spite of attributes of its dreary space.
According to Géza Németh’s newest book (~The World is too big~) the welfare is very volatile and its outlook is very unpredictable from numerous reason.
If we would like to understand the meanings the mentioned standpoint, we have to go back in mind for the roots of United Arabian Emirates. Firstly, the well-known formation of the UAE came to the fruition in 1971 in the course of making alliance among Al Fuyajrah, Ajman, Ash Sharikah, Ras al Khaymah, Umm al Qaywayn, as well as Abu-Dhabi and Dubai. By the way, neither these area nor some other didn’t come through the colonization process in the XVI. century. Portugese were the first on these region, who levied tax, quotas, and customs on ships circument between Persian Gulf and India.
Initially inhabitants had been doing pearl fishing, but after years the pearl fully lost its value, depreciated. Due to this process, they became unemployment stricken people, faced widen with poverty. Discovering the oil in Gulf was the great cusp. Sheik of Abu-Dhabi made concession for brittish, to begin the oil extraction in 1939, but they didn’t find any oil. The oil extraction could begin (and its export) in bigger scale in 1962. It seems its effect were huge, we can say, the developing effects happened overnight.
Dubai is the only one who doesn’t thank its welfare for oil extraction among countries formed UAE. Dubai’s oil export contributes with 6% to GDP. But, the upcoming question is: What the heck is going on Dubai? Dubai’s welfare grounds on its free trade zones, its harbors which are provided with wide logistic apparatus, its banking-system, and of course: turism. I have been posting many times about the huge, unbelievable enterprises which are going in Dubai (SkyMall, and so on).
People in Dubai don’t working (i mean it for citizens), they always get a certain volume of dirham from government (about 3000$). But, in generally, gaining citizenship is impossible. More than 80% of People living in Dubai are foreigners.
When we drive over on bumphump, I can’t think any other stuff only „jesus christ, they are really reach, if it is possible, i might go down to Dubai for any work, even if it’d be a speed bump”. But, Géza Németh added: due to the terrible climate he must be die in days.
I add: i dont think so :) has to be the money, gold for what my anatomy, my organizm will survive even if i have to cope with 50C in the shade.

Mission: Jobseeking in Dubai
I don't know whether you are just starting or have been in the Dubai Job Search dilemma. But there are a few common things that every job seeker has to go through. See whether below are familiar to you:
- There are thousands of Dubai jobs advertised, but you did not get a job yet. Perhaps, for months you may have been searching for a job.
- You have applied for many jobs, but you are not getting any response from the recruitment agent or the employer.
- You are in Dubai and sick and tired of going door to door because the common response is “ we do not have any vacancies”. The HR department is not even reading your resume.
- Many job seekers are already in Dubai on visit visa and looking for jobs. You are concerned on how to beat the competition.
- Perhaps you are just starting the job search and don’t know from where to start.
Perhaps you may have seen hundreds of vacancies published by job agents in Dubai. The truth is some of them are fake vacancies. Some agents are publishing fake ads to enhance their image. Do you want to waste your time and money by applying and following-up these fake vacancies? I am sure you don’t. Keep on reading….
