Hows it going now? 20100902072123
I lived in Dubai for a number of years, so I've seen the boom - and the fall. Things have stabilized, the first to leave were the investors, then as a result things got pretty bad with many businesses going bust and staff leaving as everything begun to grind to a halt, and the tourists were also uncertain because the currency is pegged to the dollar which really affected European travellers as the dirham was perceived expensive, especially when the Euro and UK pound lost 25% of its value - and the region is highly affected by the price of the oil too, so US dollar also affected. Dubai has not recovered to pre- 2008 levels and lets face it, it probably never will. It was never realistic or healthy, and that's how so many people and businesses got caught out. They got sucked in to this massive bubble, which eventually burst. What goes up, has to come down.
