Remember that project in Dubai where they were planning on creating an island series in the shape of a world map? Well, after spending hundreds of millions of dollars, 'The World' has now come to an end. The multi-billion dollar island chain has now been canceled. Dubai isn't the only place in the UAE that is experiencing the credit crunch. It has been estimated the $300 billion of building has been put on hold since prices started dropping. That's pretty hard to swallow. At any rate.. one "World" down, one to go!
