The government law is that no outside construction work is allowed between 1pm and 4pm in the summer when the temperature exceeds 40 C

Sorry, but Dubai is an absolute sh**hole. I would never contemplate living there. The place, imho, only exists to launder funds for extremists, and if it ever fails to do so, then where do you think the next wave of bombs will explode? Dubai is an enclave of western decadence in the Arabian peninsula - do you think that AQ like that or merely tolerate it because it serves a purpose?
