I give the dudes running Dubai credit: They are smart enough to see the end coming and are working to get past that, trying to turn the zone into a tourist destination AND a financial powerhouse. They are working hard to attract insurance, financial, and such to the country, including buying into stock exchanges.

They know that the oil gravy train is coming to an end, and they need to be something more or they will end up back as nomadic camel herders again.
