Dubai Developers Non Performance

Thanks Mr. G. Dickinson, same with me with Tanmiyat Group. In LIVING LLEGENDS I bought a THREE B/R apartment on Dec 06, completion Dec 08. Paid 20%. No construction has been done, only a fence was put up few months ago. Feb 09 received first ever communication, letter of waiver of payment till end of April. On 02 March 09, second letter claiming FORCE MAJEURE. Can you believe 3 months after completion!!! Visited RERA no registration of contract!!! Now last resort the courts which want AED 30,000 as fees and a similar amount for lawyers!!! I suggest let us start a DEFENSE FUND? I suggest DUBAI CARES/GOVERNMENT should set up a defense fund. Where else can we go MR. SAJWANI????? THE MEDIA. Yes THE MEDIA

Mr Auguste Kouame-World Bank: Gulf Public Investment in Agriulture

It is really not logical that wealthy Japanese, S.Korean and Gulf countries are investing big amounts in agricultural projects in Africa, Pakistan, India, Latin America and Australia to secure food. They buy the best land cheap, and deny the poor local farmers the chance to grow food and market abroad.

Nonsense, what security? This creates a new issues of ownership and these projects are doomed. Better buy from these countries, and their farmers; assist in quality control, packaging and transport. And pay good prices. YOU WILL HAVE TOTAL FOOD SECURITY FOR A LONG TIME.
