wow....im so glad they have that kind of money. "the world" is already under construction. the ski hill thing looks pretty sweet, but they need a park or something. actually its all pretty sweet. i'd like to go stay at that underwater hotel if they ever make it (and if i could afford it)

'directional ski piste and tracks of snowboard'

sounds good to me. but holy crap that is some expensive/extensive development. and they expect to be done in a few years?

to bad the waves will erode the place, and the screwed up the eco system, the waves are messed up so the shore line to the land will erode to, basicly destroying the peoples there lives

most of it is already done, the ski area in the mall supposedly opened already and they have soo much more planned--like the tallest building in the world, which construction has already started on. its crazy, they're not joking about anything, they'll build anything right now-no matter how crazy it is.

great ideas for sure. why don't we make a bunch of tiny islands two feet above sea level and continue to sell oil which causes global warming and inevitably sea level increase. hahah what a bunch of nobs!

Skiing one would be cool tho! Oh to be so rich you don't even know what to do with it all. hey why don't they give some of it to the starving ppl a couple countries sounth?

educated comment. do you know where dubai is? East Arab Emirates---Not Iraq or Afghanistan. Granted some of the oil tycoons may be funding some amount of terrorism, but the general population is pretty damn solid there. They're trying to do something good and attract people there, not to kill them...but tourism.

^lol, isnt one of the other middle eastern countries building mini islands all to make the shape of the world if you were to look at it on a map. I saw it on vh1 and they said celebrities were like buying up the islands that represented certain nations in the world
