Abu Dhabi will probably have to step in and acquire equity in Dubai controlled businesses as part of a rescue package.

will this help pakistan in anyway? i.e return of capital?

another question....if Dubai can default why can't Pakistan? Default on those 50 billion and then pay when our economy is in better position. We would save so much in payments.

No country can default without affecting its credibility and future investment inflows.

Pakistan has a lot more potential than Dubai with really has nothing. It was just a desert. It just shows what can be achieved when people work hard and with honesty.

cost to pakistan's economy due to this war on terror is qouted at about 40 billion dollars....if we default and say world should foot this bill not us because it was not our war...that should be our formal position. if we had a powerful ruler who had base in people instead of foreigners then we could have certainly bargained better.

default and ban luxury items...especially foreign car imports. that would have two benefits....more jobs for our people and also saves the burden on the foreign exchange.

That so-called "king" or prince of Dubai, or whatever the hell he is called, sure did screw it all up. hehehee

Dubai is in crisis due to massive Debt, You can imagine just one Company of Dubai called Dubai world owes more than Pakistan has accumulated in 6 years. The reason of melt down is that Dubai Currency has peg with Dollar, so they cant "Print" Dirhams like Pakistan can do. UAE Dirhams Cant be valued in Open Market in just 0.272 of Dollar. Thay have to produce dollars from some source to pay this Debt.

The US has very very close ties with Abu Dhabi. Thus, Abu Dhabi wants to put the squeeze on Dubai because Dubai has strong ties with Iran. Abu Dhabi is going to bail out Dubai on a case by case basis, per the boss' instruction - the boss is the USA, the same boss of Pakistan.
