Editor's word

Dear friends!

In the new year you always want to enter with new plans, ideas and dreams. And we always hope that everything will be fulfilled in the new year, that it will become the most prosperous, vibrant and successful. Therefore, every year at the end of December, we take stock and make wishes. And there is something very ancient and almost sacred in this ritual, which is intuitively clear to both children and adults, because in this way we program our future.

But often we are afraid to dream big, allowing ourselves a very limited range of requests. But in vain. One should always dream boldly and boldly, because imagination is perhaps the only sphere where there are no restrictions. And the Emirates is a good example of this. Here people are not afraid to dream, and therefore reach incredible heights and create, create, build, invent and implement fantastic projects. Remember - ten years ago there was not even a Bourge Khalifa, a musical fountain, Dubai Marina and JLT, there was no metro, Palm Jumeirah and Meydan racetrack. Over the past two years, the Dubai Design District, Dubai Water Canal, The World and the Bluewaters Islands, have been launched, and in October 2016, city officials promise to open three grand amusement parks - Legoland, Bollywood Parks and Motiongate Dubai. Everyone is also waiting for the opening of Dubai Opera and the cultural district on Saadiyat Island next year, where the branches of the Guggenheim Museum and the Louvre are almost ready. In another ten years, Dubai will even turn into a futuristic metropolis with the most developed entertainment industry, while in the same Europe everything will remain the same.

In the Emirates, everything happens incredibly fast, including the fulfillment of desires. The genius of this place does not hold out with the fulfillment of the envisioned, and therefore the precisely formed request is being realized quite soon. And don't ask why. The mystery of this land remains a mystery to many. So dream in a big way, and let all your bright dreams come true next year!
