Interesting news… it seems the Bin Laden family’s construction company (headed by Osama’s father) is a likely frontrunner to build the Burj Dubai, a tower complex that will be 1/3 taller than the Petronas Towers. This is the real estate development company with the idea – it’s scheduled to be completed in 2008. I think it’s interesting how this little country gets all the coolest development projects, like the largest man-made island in the world we reported some time ago.
