The whole process is a restructuring course that was well received by all Dubai Holding employees. Al Hayat Newspaper - Shafiq Al Asadi Your Highness, Dubai was accused in the media that laid-off Arabs descend from a specific nationality, what is the reality? Rumors feed on human emotion.

I would say that due to the steep global crisis effect on domains such as PR and advertising, which employ by coincidence a large number from a particular nationality, or the construction sector which also employs a large number of architects from one nationality, there is absolutely no focus on laying off any Arab or non-Arab nationality. Al Hayat Newspaper - Shafiq Al Asadi Your Highness, your recent visit to Russia complements your strategy in visiting the strong economic countries worldwide such as Germany and China last year. Do you think that these visits are still useful nowadays? Are you planning to20continue this approach and what is the objective of those visits? What was the outcome of your last visit to Moscow? This is a strange question. We are pretty sure that this crisis will not last forever, and that it will end. The UAE has always had good relations with all countries around the world and especially the weighty economic countries. Our duty is to work toward developing and enhancing those relationships. In fact, during global crisis countries should broaden those visits and enhance their bilateral relations especially since this crisis may result in forming a new economic and political world construct.
