are many options open to international companies seeking to establish a
business relationship with Dubai. Apart from forming a trading
relationship, many companies find that there are distinct advantages in
having an on-the-spot presence in order to research market prospects,
make contacts, liaise with customers, and see through the details of
any transactions and orders secured.

Sternon Galaxy Intercity: Dubai lies directly within the Arabian
Desert. However, the topography of Dubai is significantly different
from that of the southern portion of the UAE in that much of Dubai's
landscape is highlighted by sandy desert patterns, while gravel deserts
dominate much of the southern region of the country. The sand consists
mostly of crushed shell and coral and is fine, clean and white. East of
the city, the salt-crusted coastal plains, known as sabkha, give way to
a north-south running line of dunes. Farther east, the dunes grow
larger and are tinged red with iron oxide. The flat sandy desert gives
way to the Western Hajar Mountains, which run alongside Dubai's border
with Oman at Hatta. The Western Hajar chain has an arid, jagged and
shattered landscape, whose mountains rise to about 1,300 meters in some
places. Dubai has no natural river bodies or oases; however, Dubai does
have a natural inlet, Dubai Creek, which has been dredged to make it
deep enough for large vessels to pass through. Dubai also has multiple
gorges and waterholes which dot the base of the Western Al Hajar
mountains. A vast sea of sand dunes cover much of southern Dubai, which
eventually lead into the desert known as The Empty Quarter.
Seismically, Dubai is in a very stable zone — the nearest seismic fault
line, the Zargos Fault, is 120 km from the UAE and is unlikely to have
any seismic impact on Dubai. Experts also predict that the possibility
of a tsunami in the region is also minimal because the Persian Gulf
waters are not deep enough to trigger a tsunami.

Sternon: MagicHILLS

Dubai is the quintessential home of sand, sun and shopping. A
century ago, it was a peaceful town where Bedouin traders and pearl
divers lodged in coral-and-gypsum huts. The story of Dubai reads like a
rags-to-riches tale, and indeed, it is hard to imagine a place
elsewhere in the world that has developed at such a pace, in such a
short time, for so many different people.

STERNON MAGIC HILLS Residences: Mumbai — formerly Bombay, is the
capital of the Indian state of Maharashtra. The city proper is the most
populated city in the world with approximately 14 million people and,
along with the neighbouring suburbs of Navi Mumbai and Thane, Mumbai
forms the world's 4th largest urban agglomeration with around 19
million people. Mumbai lies on the west coast of India and has a deep
natural harbour. Mumbai's port handles over half of India's maritime
cargo.

Cargoes from the east have found ready markets in Dubai for years, now
they are being augmented with the very best the world has to offer to
tempt even the most sophisticated tastes. It is no mean boast for a
shopkeeper to say that if you cannot find something in Dubai, you
probably won’t find it anywhere.

Shopping Hours

Normal Dubai hours are from 9.00am–1.00pm and 4.00–9.00pm or
later. Some boutiques in the residential areas do not open until 9.30
or 10.00am. Shopping malls tend to open from 10.00am–10.00pm. Most
supermarkets stay open until late at night seven days a week, while
some remain open 24 hours. Shops close for prayers on Fridays from
11.30am–1.30pm. Shopping malls and most shops are open on Friday
evenings until late.

Originally a small fishing and trading settlement, Dubai was taken over
in about 1830 by a branch of the Bani Yas tribe from the Liwa oasis led
by the Maktoum family who still rule the emirate today.

Traditional activities included herding sheep and goats,
cultivating dates, fishing and pearling, but the inhabitants built up
trade too. By the turn of the century, Dubai was reputed to have the
largest souks on the Gulf coast, with 350 shops in the Deira district
alone.

opening of the Suez Canal in 1869 transformed Bombay into one of the
largest seaports on the Arabian Sea. Over the next thirty years, the
city grew into a major urban centre, spurred by an improvement in
infrastructure and the construction of many of the city's institutions.
The population of the city swelled to one million by 1906, making it
the second largest in India after Calcutta. As capital of the Bombay
Presidency, it was a major base for the Indian independence movement,
with the Quit India Movement called by Mahatma Gandhi in 1942 being its
most rubric event. After India's independence in 1947, it became the
capital of Bombay State. In the 1950s, the city expanded to its present
limits by incorporating parts of Salsette island which lay to the
north.
