Highest Is Everything



If you thought that Burj Dubai is the end of the “Arabian Dream”, you are mistaking. Accourding to Haitham Sabbah, the new race in the the Gulf region is building the highest towers. Few years ago, Dubai mentions that they are going to spend few “Billions” of Dollars to build the highest tower in the world, a 818 meter high building. Any visitor to Dubai can notice this landmark from anywhere around Dubai. But that was just the beginning of the race to the highest buildings. After that, Kuwait is coming with new plan to beat Dubai by building its own “highest tower” in the world, which is going to be a 1001 meter high. Of course Dubai doesn’t like to be a loser, so they plans to challenge their own record, as well Kuwait’s Tower and spend more billions of dollars to take back the for Dubai. New proposals are in action and one of them is to build another tower in Dubai too. Rumors are saying that it will be as high as 1050-1200 meters. Bahrain has a proposal to build something in between, 1022 meter high, and the race goes on. Saudi Arabia and its multi billionaire Prince Al-Waleed Bin Talal is going to join the race through his version of the “highest building”. But this one is really impressive. It is 1600 meters high. I say impressive because this number (1600m) is really crazy and will be crazy to compete with !!

I don't think Saleh thinks you're stupid. I think he was just SO excited about your post that he lost all control of himself. It can happen, as we have just seen! Are you okay, Saleh?
