Reflective memo 11

As I suspected, finding specific government initiatives for Dubai has been difficult. I have managed to find many government documents that state Dubai's strategic position on Infrastructure, both transport and communication, but I haven't been able to find any specific government initiatives layed out in documentation on their primary site. I did find the following report:

http://www.dubai.ae/opt/CMSContent/Active/Shared/Images/DAEv7/2010_misc/UAE_Vision_2021_English.pdf

I was able to find several snipits of information such as the following passage in this report:

An excellent standard of infrastructure and utilities will satisfy the fundamental needs of citizens and businesses while also boosting our nation's economic competitiveness as a leading global hub. As a symbol of mobility and interconnectivity, the UAE will reap the benefits of truly nationwide, user-friendly business and technical systems including transport and communication networks. High-quality utilities will deliver the reliable supplies of energy and water that we require.

While this is a great mission statement, it says very little on how they plan on acheiving these goals. I am not done searching though their government site, but I am guessing that finding specific initiatives may prove to be a challenge. I am thinking that I may have to resort to looking on international news sites for more detailed information on any initiatives that they may have in place.
