Those islands have failed, more have been already cancelled. Other issues are stagnant water, sinking, erosion etc land is not selling you name it

They have not failed, the pandemic caused the economy of the world to come to a crawl but it won't stop the islands from being developed. Recently there are announcements on the continuation of the islands. Usually the ones saying negative things about the development of the islands tend to be idiots from the west who are either looney tree huggers or islamophobic racists.

This nothing but a commercial for Dubai. Misleading title.

So what is the real reason it failed? I didn't hear it. The whole video seem to be nothing but excuses of why it's not a failure.

I think one of the biggest issues with further development of those new islands is the fact that there is only a limited number of multi-millionaires and billionaires in the world who could afford to live there or buy or build a mansion or estate home there. They should have included work force housing on site, both as a way to reduce road traffic, and to diversify the local population. The other factor is that, for a lot of European and North American travelers or people wealthy enough to live there, Islamic rules and laws, which the local population grew up with and live by, and not going to attract that many people. Limited or no alcohol? Limited rights for women and the LGBTQIA+ communities? That is going to be a problem for a lot of people from the west, or Asia. Not to mention that living there in the summer months would be uncomfortable at best - most foreigners live in more comfortable climates. While some do like the desert heat, most don't. Add in dust storms and the constant threat of sun burns causing skin cancer, and it's really only a place for people to enjoy during the cooler months of the year.

this was bizarr, this whole channel is bizarr. is this like a state sponsored channel?

Well, they’ve resumed palm jebel Ali construction and re-planned the palm deira to be some other type of island. So maybe there’s still hope. Still wasteful, drought with challenges of erosion and other degradation, environmentally unfriendly and financially reckless. I think the worst idea is the “world” islands. They look rather unsightly and require plumbing, electrical and other infrastructure to be installed by the purchaser. This is a huge deterrent I would imagine lol

They should ask the Dutch for advice. They literally build half a country where there was once only water. And nothing is sinking.

They could have built them inland and been so beautiful too

Well, this channel is allegedly based in the UAE - so get out of the office, travel to the islands and you'll find that most days they stink. They were designed forgetting that stagnant water is not a nice neighbor, and boy, do those islands create a lot of stagnant water.

Dubai stopped depending on oil long ago you ignorant. They don't even have that much now.

I've been in Dubai several times.There are big space inland in Dubai..That can be developed very good instead of this artificial with now is slowly sinking..The tourist is back less

Stagnant water

Next time you buy gasoline, think about this!

Organic development vs inorganic. This is what plagues those developing country governments who want rapid development - including China - you can't force it into being - it will always turn people off.

Except the project hasn't failed. Anyone here can easily search it up. Claiming that the properties are mostly empty is simply not true.

2008 is an excuse for investors who got ripped off. All of the islands will sink, and they know it. What is worse is that the climate sucks at the Tropic of Cancer in the desert, not to mention they will run out of water before oil.

Lol it stinks because water doesn't move in and out with the tides.

I wish the world would pick a lane - and I hope the lane is metric. I live in the U.S., and I have lived all my life with English units of measure; and, while I hate the idea of changing over, I hate having to divide / multiply by 8, 12, 16, and other "odd duck" integer numbers when scaling up or down. In metric, you just move a decimal point. Plus, English measurements all owe their basics to some arbitrary standard, like the "foot", usually after lengthy haggling & arguing about it for a few centuries. At least the metric system is based on an objective, common sense, and universal reality, not some compromise hammered out by decades (or, in some cases, centuries) of trial & error.
