Here's my report from the ATM expo Dubai:

The Dubailand stand had small City of Arabia, Universal Studios and Legoland areas. I spoke to a lady who told me that City of Arabia was nearly finished. I asked if they've been out to the site and seen that construction had been stopped for years. She laughed and said 'Ahh. Maybe something will happen within 4 years.'

Total letdown in general. All the stands were very scaled down and nothing exciting being announced.
