because the property is zoned commercial/retail on the first level (living, dining, family, kitchen, all-around balconies) and residential on the 2nd level (three bedrooms, enormous bathroom and jaccuzzi room, some balconies), one could do an upscale private club catering to single (or , for that matter, married) Japanese women looking for a vacation ... between the club and easy access to afterhours swimming pool on the same level, and the nobu restaurant commissions on the ground floor, the speculation, as a club deal amongst friends, can work and be fun :0)

There is a huge and rapidly growing pile of foreign currency reserves in China, rest of East Asia, Russia, the OPEC countries. We are talking trillions of dollars that are mostly parked in short term instruments right now. These countries are in the process of shifting a huge portion of these reserves into national investment funds. Therefore, a significant part of this mountain of cash is going to be invested somewhere in the not too distant future. That's what will cause the next bubble. Those expecting a dramatic fall in the stock markets of the world seem to be oblivious to this.

Gulf Arabs accept Iran offer for talks on free trade pact. Getting ready for US departure. India and China will support the initiative. Gulf Arabs accept Iran offer for talks on free trade pact. 16 hours ago JEDDAH, Saudi Arabia (AFP) — Pro-Western Gulf Arab monarchies have agreed to an Iranian offer to launch talks on a possible free trade pact, the secretary general of their oil-rich bloc said on Saturday. Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) foreign ministers in the Saudi Red Sea city of Jeddah discussed a letter from their Iranian counterpart "regarding Iran's readiness to reach a free trade agreement with GCC member states," Abdurrahman al-Attiyah told reporters after their meeting. Attiyah said that in light of the letter from Iran's Manouchehr Mottaki, "it was agreed to express the readiness of GCC states to engage in negotiations to conclude an agreement to set up a free trade zone" with the Islamic republic. He said the issue would be referred to the financial and economic cooperation committee of the GCC, which groups Bahrain, Kuwait, Oman, Qatar, Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates. Attiyah's remarks at a news conference after the ministerial meeting were aired on the Saudi news channel Al-Ikhbariya. A statement issued after the meeting called for a peaceful resolution of Iran's standoff with the West over its controversial nuclear programme, and urged Tehran to cooperate fully with the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA).
