> Hong Kong is just a sea port

... with one of the highest concentration of major banks and biggest financial management hubs outside of NYC.

I thought the center is where the money is, always has been. From Rome to Florence, then London, then to the New World and NYC, and now switching over to Asia.

> Shanghai is just a playground for young french men.

And, Dubai is a place where celebs can go slumming as the streets rise with unpaid mortgages and backed-up sewage systems.

I'm sure the places we've named are more than just their rumor and stereotype.



What I mean is that these far east places are more focused on the west, and less on the 3rd world. Go to shanghai or hong kong - there are very few Africans. But go to Dubai...

The money is in Dubai.
