  Abu dhabi is proceeding with the Masdar energy City Plan which plans to invest up to 22 billion to develop clean energy to power up homes and businesses ...what do you guys think?

  Can SG come up with 10 billion to develop Sunny city ?

  we don't think we're the best..

  we don't think others are the best just because they splash out money either  

  who's the "frog in the well" when you don't even consider the sheer hubris which is exhibited in the UAE  

  do you even know what kind of BS they do there in the first place?

  i don't have that..

  and i never said that i was an expert..

  i just see the stupidity which comes with way too much money, and not enough brains...

  google is your friend.. go read up what UAE is like... for real, and not all these huge brainless ego-wanking projects...  

  and sometimes, it's not about investments... it's about common sense...

  Abu Dhabi is moving away the oil reliant world we're living in by investing in a more sustainable development like masdar city while we build IRs using fossil fuel...She's able to save Dubai in the past cause her economy is more prudent and conservative ...

  So why should we not learn from Abu dhabi? As the saying goes a fool and his money are soon parted and Abu Dhabi is using her oil wealth in a wise manner
