    The UAE has around 700 kilometers of coastline, including 100 kilometers on the Gulf of Oman. Its Arabian Gulf coast is covered by offshore islands, coral reefs and salt marshes.

    Some Basic Facts on UAE

    Population : 2.776 million Labour Force: 1.378 million

    Area : 83,600 Km2 (Including approx. 200 islands) Capital : Abu Dhabi National Day : 2nd December 1971 (The date of the establishment of the Federation) Capital : Abu Dhabi Religion : Islam Official Language : Arabic Time : 4 hours ahead of G.M.T.

    Oil and gas production remain the primary source of public revenue. The secret of the country's current economic success is due the determined government strategy of economic diversification, leading to the creation of new productive sectors. This, together with revenue from foreign investment, has helped the UAE economy to leap forward over its counterparts in the middle east.

The creation of a facilitative business environment, which encourages local investors to put their wealth to productive use, as well as attracting foreign investment, has been an important aspect of this policy. The basic elements in the UAE's incentive strategy have been the provision of first-class industrial facilities and business support services, the reduction of red tape and streamlining of administrative procedures, updating of commercial laws and regulations to meet international obligations, increase transparency and ensure effective protection for investors.

    Easiest tax laws and political stability also assist in making the UAE a prime business location.

FTZ has been growing at a rate of 20-22 per cent annually and currently has over 125 projects registered at the zone, representing sector investment worth Dh 750 million.

    Arab, Gulf and international capital investment in Sharjah's Hamriyyah Free Zone had exceeded Dh 2.5 billion by the end of 1999, with local investment accounting for 50 per cent. The Sharjah Government has invested Dh 600 million in infrastructure projects in the zone.
