Dubai is not as bad as you think it is, met a SSC poster there for beer on a stopover to India a few years ago, rooftop bar on my hotel was serving despite it being Ramadan. Fascinating place, don't really care for it, but interesting nonetheless.

just yesterday had lunch with my father and a friend of his who travelled all over the world (all of Europe, almost all countries in Latin America, USA, Canada, most eastern and southeast asian countries, etc)
He really did not think highly of Dubai. Said it was boring... too hot outside, so you were confined to inside air conditioned buildings... and considering his has an office in Hong Kong and constantly travels in China, I guess the Dubai buildings are not enough of an attraction to him.
