I will assure you a big collapse of Dubai economy in the near future. Also Iran is under sanctions and even managing to live a normal life is admirable. <br /> BTW, have you ever visited Iran or Mashhad recently (in the last few years) to judge the state of constructions there?

If you believe the construction boom in Mashad is the sign of economic boom in Iran, then you should visit Doha and Abu Dhabi to see what the real economic boom is. This is not comparing oranges and apples. However, if you believe that construction boom in the third world could actually be a sign of economic mismanagement, then that’s true for Iran as well as for Qatar and UAE.

The UAE is an artificial British imperialist creation like Kuwait and Singapore and is controlled by the Brits and other western nations who invest there and support the construction and infrastructure. Iran is under relentless US/Zionist assault and total sanctions since 1979 and this progress is remarkable indeed. I have spent substantial time in artificial glass caverns of Dubai and am not too impressed. The Arabs import South Asian (Indian, Paki, Bangladeshi, Filipino etc) labour and US/European architects and engineers and have built the pearl diving villages into gaudy glass towers. Iranian accomplishments are our own national creation and hard efforts. I am disappointed at your comparison.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5169130203475264933.post-28897478920702232022013-02-20T20:06:32.663-05:002013-02-20T20:06:32.663-05:00Mark,

Ladies and g...Good realistic post by Mark as usual. Ladies and gentlemen please try to be objective and debate the good points about the resilient Iranian economy without the usual childish rancor by some. There is no doubt that Iranian domestic and international civil engineering and construction sector is a great success and a major contributor to the GDP. A recent Economist Intelligence estimate (no friend of Iran) according to their 2010 report, Iran has been ranked 39th for producing $23 billion of industrial products in 2008. From 2008 to 2009 Iran has leaped to 28th place from 69th place in annual industrial production growth rate. A recent report by the World Fact Book ranks Iran 3rd among “emerging industrial powers” in the world after China and India in terms of its industrial growth. According to the report, Iran’s industrial sector grew by 4% in the year 2009. Iran was ranked 13th among emerging economies in 2006. Overall, Iran is ranked 31st in the world in terms of its industrial production growth rate.The government of Iran has plans for the establishment of 50-60 industrial parks by the end of the fifth Five-Year Socioeconomic Development Plan by 2015. Iranian contractors have been awarded several foreign tender contracts in different fields of construction of dams, bridges, roads, buildings, railroads, power generation, and gas, oil and petrochemical industries. As of 2011, some 66 Iranian industrial companies are carrying out projects in 27 countries. The availability of local raw materials, rich mineral reserves, experienced man power have all collectively played crucial role in wining the international bids. <br /><br />If anyone has traveled recently to South America, particularly Venezuela, Bolivia, Ecuador etc, you may be surprised to find Iranian construction companies thriving with a good reputation for delivering projects on time and of high quality. Iranian firms are also working in Iraq, Lebanon, Syria, Armenia, Afghanistan and various parts of Africa as well. In 2012, it was conservatively estimated that the civil construction sector added around $30 billion to Iranian GDP as well as over $6 billion in professional services sector exports.<br /><br />In recent years, the construction industry of Iran has been thriving due to an increase in national and international investment to the extent that it is now the largest in the Middle East region. The Central Bank of Iran indicate that 70 percent of the Iranians own homes, with huge amounts of idle money entering the housing market. The annual turnover in the construction industry amounts to US$38.4 billion. The real estate sector contributed to 5% of GDP in 2008. Statistics from March 2004 to March 2005 put the number of total Iranian households at 15.1 million and the total number of dwelling units at 13.5 million, signifying a demand for at least 5.1 million dwelling units. Every year there is a need for 750,000 additional units as young couples embark on married life.At present, 2000 units are being built every day although this needs to increase to 2740 units. In addition, Iran’s geographical position over a seismic belt necessitates the reinforcement and renovation of housing. This is possible only through a boom in real-estate development and foreign investment.<br /><br />http://www.iranexhibitions.org/sector.htmlAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5169130203475264933.post-68295308787113460112013-02-20T17:09:18.133-05:002013-02-20T17:09:18.133-05:00You shouldn't have a picture of Homa it is an ...You shouldn't have a picture of Homa it is an pre-Islamic icon of Iran.<br />Use Kabbeh instead that is more fitting for the likes of you.
