Burj Khalifa is the tallest building in the world and its height goes up to 828 metres.

Emaar Properties Chairman Mohamed Alabbar said that the new observation tower would be "a notch" taller than the Burj Khalifa. It is due to open by the time Dubai hosts the World Expo in 2020.

The new mega retail district, which will be launched in 2 months, will be linked to The Tower, Alabbar told reporters.

The chairman said: "The Tower in Dubai Creek Harbour is our tribute to the positivity, energy and optimism that Dubai and the UAE celebrate, led by a leardership committed to all-around progress.

The Tower serves as the vibrant core of Dubai Creek Harbour, a 6 sq. km world-class master planned development that is two times the size of Downtown Dubai and located 10 minutes form the Dubai International airport. The waterfront development is centred off the Dubai Creek, the cradle of Dubai's history and culture, and in close proximity to the Ras Al Khor National Wildlife Sanctuary, protected under the Enesco Ramsar Convention and home to over 67 species of water birds.

The new tower is designed by Spanish-Swiss architect Santiago Calatrava Valls will not be a traditional skyscraper but more of a cable-supported spire containing observation decks, hanging garden and possibly other tourist facilities.

With over 6.79 million sq m of residential space, 11.16 million sq m of retail precincts, 851,000 sq m of commercial property and 22 hotels with 4,400 rooms, Dubai Creek Harbour serves as a strong economic catalyst for Dubai.

I remember, 1400+ years ago Prophet Muhammad pbuh said : The hour will not be established till the people of desert (the camel shepherds) compete with one another in constructing HIGH BUILDINGS.
Nobody knows when is dooms day except ALLAH. but on being asked on the signs of the last day, The prophet Pbuh mentions \ You shall see the barefoot, naked, penniless shepherds competing in constructing high buildings. The hadith describes people who become RICH all of a sudden and then build NOT for NEED but only in COMPETITION.

We R seeing it in REALITY today... It is a MIRACLE of Prophet of ALLAH and we should PONDER on what Prophet of ALLAH said.
He asked mankind to worship only one God ALLAH and not to associate partners with him. Read QURAN. ALLAH speaks directly to the person who reads it & U will get the message of YOUR LIFE and its solution.

I believe in ALLAH as my LORD ,
Muhammad pbuh as my prophet and
ISLAM as my Deen...

ALLAH knows best."

Mr.Logic
If this is barren Land, why you are in dubai.

U must understand that because of attracting tourist, dubai is feeding you.

No doubt Qiyamah is approaching fast. This is one of the signs as per the Hadees of our beloved Prophet S.A. May Allah save His slaves from the Fitnah and safeguard our imaan forever.

Congress seeks action against youths who 'threatened to behead' MLA U T Khader

News Network

January 29,2020

Mangaluru, Jan 29: Days after some youths allegedly threatened to 'behead' local MLA and former Karnataka minister U T Khader during a pro-CAA rally here, the Dakshina Kannada district unit of the Congress on Wednesday urged the police to register a case against the culprits.

A video of the incident that went viral on social media showed the youths raising slogans that they will "cut off his limbs and chop off his head if necessary" during the rally organised by the BJP in support of the Citizenship Amendment Act on Monday.

Addressing reporters here, District Congress Committee president Harish Kumar demanded that the police register a case on their own against the youths. He said if prompt action was not taken against the youths seen in the video, the Congress will launch an agitation before the office of the Commissioner of Police.

When asked by reporters about the video, Khader had on Tuesday brushed aside the threat, saying he had not taken it seriously. The MLA had also said he did not file a complaint with police as he had concern for the families of the youths.
