LIVE IN DUBAI - 29/7/09
By Dawn Draper Business Development Manager
Dubai… A great place to live, work and play.
Dubai is home to an exciting, diverse, multi-cultural blend of young, dynamic and professional people all enjoying the unrivalled quality of life the Emirate has to offer. It is of absolutely no surprise therefore that Dubai has the fastest growing population in the world.
More and more people emigrate to the city for quality of life, outstanding employment prospects and to experience the very best in the world of work and lifestyle.
One of the most immediate and attractive aspects of working in Dubai is that fact that there are no personal taxes levied against income from employment. This means you will enjoy and benefit from your entire salary, you will have considerably more disposable income than you are used to, you will be able to enjoy the benefits of the offshore financial world and you will be able to afford a lifestyle that others can only dream of.
A first impression when arriving in Dubai for the first time has to be that the majority of buildings in Dubai are quite simply works of art, lighting up at night to exaggerate their splendor. The beaches are not just amazing, there are lots of them, and you will never find them crowded. Superior hotels with the best amenities are a plenty, offering top class restaurants, boasting amazing views across the city skyline, marina’s and beaches. Dubai has an enviable collection of shopping Malls, stocking everything from local craft to the latest designer fashions. Within these Malls you will also find ice skating rinks, an indoor ski park (yes snow skiing), and unbelievable indoor aquariums that hold up to 10 million litres of water, illuminating the marvels of the ocean floor and showcasing one of the most diverse collections of marine life worldwide.
Families relocating to the city will find rental accommodation easy to secure and those who are enjoying substantial tax free incomes can now buy their very own piece of the Emirate. Property in Dubai is not only currently widely available, of incredible quality and style but it is also an excellent commodity in investment terms. In the current economic climate, many Dubai properties are available at prices nobody thought would be possible a second time round. If you have children and would like them to be educated in one of the many schools in the city, you will find educational standards are most definitely better than in most other schools worldwide, just as the medical facilities available in Dubai are some of the best in the world.
