The $40 Billion Plan to Transform Abu Dhabi
Abu Dhabi is the Capitol of the United Arab Emirates and has a population of over 1.4 million people. While the capitol is the country’s center of politics and industry, the government has began investing into a number of Initiatives, to transform this region. One of the largest projects being Yas Island, a large infrastructure project catering towards the tourism industry. While this was just one large scale development project, the UAE government has outlined a number of large scale projects they plan to add to this region.
All of this raises the question as to what the goal of these projects actually is. Does Abu Dhabi want to become the next Dubai, or are these projects just one step to begin diversifying the emirate’s economy into new industries. But the question remains if this plan is even remotely possible, and how it will impact the future of the capitol city.
