② 關於迪拜中英介紹
The United Arab Emirates (UAE) consists of seven Emirates』 and Du is the most popular destination of them all. It is situated on the southern shore of the Persian Gulf on the Arabian Peninsula. Du is the second largest Emirate after Abu Dhabi and is usually recognised as the 『Pearl of the Persian Gulf』.
Du』s population is estimated at 1.5 million, a huge difference from 183,200 in 1975. Du is one of the most multicultural cities in the world with the expatriate community covering most of the population, with less than 10% of the total being national Emiratis.
The state of Du is commonly referred to as a city because it has been distinguished as the most modern and cosmopolitan environments in the Emirates, especially e to its rapid technological transformation over the past few decades.
Du is a landmark for innovation; some might even compare it to the computer game Sim-city where expansion has no limit. The city boasts remarkable skyscrapers, such as the world』s current tallest building, the Burj Du, and is also in the process of developing one of the most technologically advanced buildings in the world – The Pad. This is based on the idea of an iPod; this residential tower is set to be embedded with the latest gadgets that will have the power to change interior design and window views to almost anything imaginable.
Sheikh Mohammed is the ruler of Du. It is said that he is primarily responsible for making Du what it is today; a modern high flying city thriving from commercial investments. Sheikh Mohammed』s most significant business proposal was the introction of Du』s world class airline, the Emirates.
The city of Du gains higher returns from its tourism unlike many of the other Emirates, as revenue from oil only accounts for around 6% of Du』s gross domestic proct. The city』s oil is decreasing by the year and therefore cannot be depended upon. That is partly the reason why there has been a construction boom in order to diversify its economy in the expansion of commercial and corporate activity. Du has therefore become a world famous city through innovative real estate projects, sports events, conferences and Guinness records.
Although Du has been transformed into a man-made hi-tech city, it still has a strong Islamic culture with a stretch of historical buildings by the Creek. Whilst some may view this as a conflict of old meeting new, it is also considered to be a captivating city that offers both extremes; a traditional past interlinked with modern day
Du Culture Culture in Du is rooted in Islamic traditions that form UAE National's lifestyles. However, the UAE is tolerant and welcoming to foreigners who do not practice the religion of Islam. Expatriates are free to practice their own religion, alcohol is served in hotels and the dress code is liberal. Women don't face discrimination. Courtesy and hospitality are one of the many virtues of Du. Rulers are keen to maintain their culture and do so through a number of practices. One is promoting sporting events that are representative of their past. Falconry, camel racing and dhow sailing are still popular in Du. The official language of the country is Arabic, however most people in and out of the workplace communicate in English. There are so many different nationalities in Du, English finds common ground with most people. The majority of road and shop signs, restaurant menus etc. are in both English and Arabic. Du is a cosmopolitan city and visitors can dress however they like. Still, a good amount of respect for local customs is appreciated. In deference to local customs and norms it is a good idea for visitors not to wear very short, tight clothing, at least until such time as they are comfortable with the city. UAE nationals usually wear their traditional dress. For men this is the dishdasha or khanra, a white full-length shirt-dress. It is worn with a white or red checked headdress known as a gutra. In public women wear the black abaya, a long black robe that covers their normal clothes. They also wear a headscarf.

很久以來,迪拜在這一地區的貿易地理上便占據突出的位置。迪拜一直是一個繁榮的商業中心,迪拜港灣在這個城市的經濟發展中扮演著非常重要的角色。對那些裝滿各種貨物轉口到海灣地區、印度次大陸和東非等不同地區的中小船隻來說,迪拜港灣一直是一個安全的重要海港。
在海灣地區,迪拜被認為是這一地區最重要的貿易中心之一。主要有以下原因:
首先,迪拜位於阿聯酋海岸線的中部,約400英里長,其位置具有非常重要的戰略性和競爭性。在阿拉伯灣西南部的這一重要位置一方面使迪拜在連接各航線中扮演活躍的貿易角色,另一方面又可以大大方便東西部之間的的海上運輸。
其次,迪拜實行自由和穩定的經濟政策,在各國之間以及國際工商界贏得良好的聲譽,這就鼓勵了本國資本和外國資本投資於商業、工業和服務業等各個經濟領域。
第三,迪拜通過建設完善的基礎設施、提高政府服務效率和提供公共服務等措施,進一步加強了其在國際貿易中的戰略地位。這些高效的便利化措施有效地促進了各經濟部門的增長、社會發展和人民生活水平的提高。
總之,迪拜酋長國的經濟建立在兩類經濟活動的基礎之上,即:非石油貿易和石油的生產與出口。在過去的三十年,由於占據海灣獨特的戰略性地理位置、一系列基礎設施項目的完工以及根據國際最高標准實施的一系列貿易便利化措施,迪拜的貿易和工業經歷了快速的增長。如今迪拜已經成為這一地區最重要的進口、出口和轉口貿易中心。同時,迪拜也在致力於大力加強其工業基礎的建設,以進一步實現其經濟的多元化。為此,迪拜在傑布拉里自由區建立了一些重工業項目,活躍的私人經濟也建立了一些中小規模的製造工廠,並在某些商品上實現了自給自足,有些商品甚至已經超過當地市場的需求並出口到海外市場。

迪拜對外貿易概況
在過去的幾十年中,迪拜的對外貿易活動一直非常活躍。無論是在當地、地區性還是國際貿易中,都取得了較快的貿易增長速度。這主要是由於絕大部分最終消費品、中間產品和資本貨物的各種貿易方式的自由進口刺激了當地和地區市場的需求,並進一步促進了經貿活動的發展。
1.貨物出口及最終目地國
迪拜的出口占阿聯酋總出口的78.4%,在各酋長國的出口中居首。非石油出口主要由兩部分組成,即傳統商品和工業製成品。傳統商品主要包括棗椰、皮革、冷凍和干魚、廢鐵和其他金屬。這部分商品僅占總出口的較小比例,大部分直接出口到海灣國家和印度次大陸;工業製成品主要出口到海灣國家和其它國際市場。其中,鋁錠、液化天然氣、成衣主要出口到美國、韓國、日本、英國、荷蘭、印度、台灣、中國和西歐的一些工業國家。食品、化學品、塑料製品、建築材料、和金屬製品主要出口到海灣合作委員會各國。值得注意的是,迪拜的傳統農產品和高級工業製成品的出口總額都很小。但是,隨著工業活動的擴張和繁榮,預計迪拜工業製成品的出口如鋁錠、液化天然氣、水泥、電力和其它產品的出口將進一步增長。
在迪拜出口商品的最終目的國中,2002年美國是迪拜商品的第一進口國,對美國出口約占迪拜總出口的4.4%;對海灣合作委員會國家的出口占迪拜總出口的7%。
2.貨物進口及最初進口國
迪拜每年的進口規模和金額是阿聯酋整個商業活動的重要指標,因為阿聯酋約三分之二的消費品、中間產品和資本品需求以及海灣合作委員會國家的一部分商品需求都是通過迪拜進口的。
迪拜非石油商品進口從2000年的723.92億迪納姆上升到2001年的831.86億迪納姆,增長13.1%。迪拜2001年進口約占整個阿聯酋進口的74.2%,是第一大進口酋長國。
2001年,迪拜的進口來自於全世界191個國家的地區,主要是中國、英國、日本、印度、法國、美國、韓國、德國、義大利和瑞士。從這些國家的進口約占迪拜總進口的65.4%。
3.貨物轉口及地理分布
在迪拜的商業歷史上,迪拜一直以作為鄰近海灣國家活躍的轉口貿易中心而聞名。如今,迪拜的轉口貿易已經超越這一發展階段,開始大量轉口到印度次大陸和非洲東海岸。藉助於基礎設施和貿易便利化的提高,迪拜不斷擴大其轉口貿易並覆蓋整個海灣和阿拉伯國家,亞洲、歐洲國家以及一些非洲國家,2001年轉口貿易已佔其總進口的27.1%。
2001年迪拜的轉口貿易占整個阿聯酋轉口貿易的75.2%,在迪拜的對外貿易中扮演非常重要的角色。除去傑布拉里自由區的轉口貿易,迪拜2001年的轉口貿易總額達到225.75億迪納姆。
迪拜轉口貿易的目地國有202個國家和地區,重要的國家有伊朗、印度、沙特、科威特、土耳其、安哥拉、英國、伊拉克、利比亞和香港。對這些國家的轉口貿易為133.94億迪納姆,約占轉口貿易總額的59.3%。海灣合作委員會國家的轉口貿易為39.95億迪納姆,占轉口貿易總額的17.7%。

阿聯酋
The United Arab Emirates (UAE) is a federation of seven emirates situated in the southeast of the Arabian Peninsula in Southwest Asia on the Persian Gulf, bordering Oman and Saudi Arabia. The UAE consists of seven states, termed emirates, which are Abu Dhabi, Du, Sharjah, Ajman, Umm al-Quwain, Ras al-Khaimah and Fujairah. The capital and second largest city of the United Arab Emirates is Abu Dhabi. It is also the country's center of political, instrial and cultural activities.[5]
Before 1971, the UAE were known as the Trucial States or Trucial Oman, in reference to a nineteenth-century truce between Britain and several Arab Sheikhs. The name Pirate Coast was also used in reference to the area's emirates in the 18th to early 20th century.[6]
The political system of the United Arab Emirates, based on the 1971 Constitution, comprises several intricately connected governing bodies. Islam is the official religion and Arabic is the official language.
The United Arab Emirates has the world's sixth largest oil reserves[7] and possesses one of the most developed economies in the Middle East. It is currently the thirty-sixth largest economy by nominal GDP, and is one of the richest countries in the world by per capita gross domestic proct, with a nominal per capita GDP of $54,607 as per the IMF.[8] The country is fourteenth largest in purchasing power per capita and has a relatively high Human Development Index for the Asian continent, ranking 31st globally.[9] The United Arab Emirates is classified as a high income developing economy by the IMF.
The United Arab Emirates is a founding member of the Cooperation Council for the Arab States of the Gulf, and a member state of the Arab League. It is also a member of the United Nations, Organisation of the Islamic Conference, the OPEC, and the World Trade Organization.
The earliest known human habitation in the United Arab Emirates dated from the Neolithic period, 5500 BCE. At this early stage, there is proof of interaction with the outside world, particularly with civilisations to the north. These contacts persisted and became wide-ranging, probably motivated by trade in copper from the Hajar Mountains which commenced around 3000 BCE.[10] Foreign trade, the recurring motif in the history of this strategic region, flourished also in later periods, facilitated by the domestication of the camel at the end of the second millennium BCE.[11]
By the first century CE overland caravan traffic between Syria and cities in southern Iraq began, followed by seaborne travel to the important port of Omana (perhaps present-day Umm al-Qaiwain) and thence to India was an alternative to the Red Sea route used by the Romans.[12] Pearls had been exploited in the area for millennia but at this time the trade reached new heights. Seafaring was also a mainstay and major fairs were held at Dibba, bringing in merchants from as far as China.[13]
[edit] Advent of Islam
The arrival of envoys from the Prophet Muhammad in 630 heralded the conversion of the region to Islam. After Muhammad's death, one of the major battles of the Ridda Wars, was fought at Dibba resulting in the defeat of the non-Muslims and the triumph of Islam in the Arabian Peninsula.
In 637, Julfar (today Ra』s al-Khaimah) was as a staging post for the conquest of Iran. Over many centuries, Julfar became a wealthy port and pearling center from which dhows traveled throughout the Indian Ocean.
Recent history
After the 9/11 terrorist attacks on the United States the UAE was identified as a major financial center used by Al-Qaeda in transferring money to the hijackers (two of the 9/11 hijackers were UAE citizens). The nation immediately cooperated with the U.S, freezing accounts tied to suspected terrorists and strongly clamped down on money laundering.
The country had already signed a military defense agreement with the U.S. in 1994 and one with France in 1995.
The UAE supports military operations from the United States and other Coalition nations that are engaged in the liberation of Afghanistan (2001) and Iraq (2003) as well as operations supporting the Global War on Terrorism for the Horn of Africa at Al Dhafra Air Base located outside of Abu Dhabi. The air base also supported Allied operations ring the 1991 Persian Gulf War and Operation Northern Watch.
Government
The politics of the United Arab Emirates take place in a framework of a federal presidential elected monarchy, a federation of seven absolute monarchies, the emirates of Abu Dhabi, Ajman, Fujairah, Sharjah, Du, Ras al-Khaimah and Umm al-Qaiwain. The ruler of Abu Dhabi is President of the United Arab Emirates, the head of state, and the ruler of Du is the Prime Minister of the United Arab Emirates, the head of government.[43]
The presidency and premiership of the United Arab Emirates is de facto hereditary to the Al Nahyan clan of Abu Dhabi and the Al Maktoum clan of Du. The the ruler of Abu Dhabi is also the President of the United Arab Emirates and the head of state, and the ruler of Du is also the Prime Minister and Vice President of the United Arab Emirates and the head of its government. The political influences and financial obligations of the emirates are reflected by respective positions in the federal government. While each emirate still retains autonomy over own territory, a percentage of its revenue is allocated to the UAE』s central budget.[44]
Current President of the United Arab Emirates, Khalifa Bin Zayed Al NahyanThe federal system includes the executive branch which consists of the President, Vice President, the Federal Supreme Council (composed of the emirates』 seven rulers), and a Cabinet, or Council of Ministers. The legislative branch consists of a parliamentary body, the Federal National Council. A constitutionally independent judiciary includes the Federal Supreme Court.[45]
Sheikh Zayed bin Sultan Al Nahyan was the union's president from the nation's founding until his death on November 2, 2004. On the following day the Federal Supreme Council elected his son, Sheikh Khalifa bin Zayed Al Nahyan, to the post. Abu Dhabi's crown prince, Mohammed bin Zayed Al Nahyan, is the heir apparent. [46]
The Supreme Council elects the Council of Ministers, while the 40-member Federal National Council, drawn from all the emirates, reviews proposed laws. The UAE』s parliamentary body is half appointed by the rulers of the constituent emirates and the other half elected indirectly to serve two-year terms. The council carries out the country』s main consultative ties and has both a legislative and supervisory role provided by the constitution. [47]
There is a federal court system; all emirates except Du and Ras al-Khaimah have joined it. All emirates have both secular and Islamic law for civil, criminal, and high courts.[48]
The UAE took its first steps towards indirect elections for the country』s parliament on National Day, December 2, 2005 upon the official announcement by Sheikh Khalifa bin Zayed Al Nahyan which followed the formation of an Electoral College. A National Electoral Committee was created and the UAE』s first election occurred ring mid-December 2006. The election and appointment of nine women (comprising 22.5 per cent of the Council) strongly signified advancement and political participation of women in the United Arab Emirates. The long-term objective is for the FNC to be wholly-elected.[49]

When contrasted with other Arab states, such as Saudi Arabia for instance, the UAE has comparatively very liberal laws. The country has a civil law jurisdiction. However, Shari'a or Islamic law is applied to aspects of family law, inheritance and certain criminal acts. Women can drive in the UAE and there is a strong emphasis in equality and human rights brought by the UAE's National Human Rights Committee.
A federal court system applies to all emirates except Du and Ras Al Khaimah, which are not fully integrated into the federal judicial system. All emirates have secular courts to rule about criminal, civil, and commercial matters, and Islamic courts to review family and religious disputes.
The country has undergone a period of liberalization and modernisation ring the reign of Sheikh Zayed bin Sultan Al Nahyan. The laws of the UAE tolerate alcohol to a certain extent. However, public bars and nightclubs in the UAE operate mainly in hotels and clubs, much like in Qatar, with some do operate independently.
In the UAE the establishment of the Civil and Criminal Courts resulted in diminishing the role of the Sharia Courts. Nevertheless, the competence of the Sharia Courts in some emirates, particularly Abu Dhabi, was substantially expanded later on to include, in addition to matters of personal status, all types of civil and commercial disputes as well as serious criminal offences. Therefore, in addition to the Civil Courts, each of the seven emirates maintains a parallel system of Sharia Courts which are organised and supervised locally.
In common with other Arab Gulf countries, sponsorship laws exist in the UAE. These laws have been widely described as akin to modern-day slavery.[50] The sponsorship system (Kafeel or Kafala) exists throughout the GCC and means that a worker (not a tourist) may not enter the country without having a kafeel, cannot leave without the kafeel's permission (an Exit Permit must first be awarded by the sponsor, or kafeel), and the sponsor has the right to ban a former employee who has quit the job from entering the UAE for 2–5 years after his first departure. Many sponsors do not allow the transfer of one employee to another sponsor.
Civil cases may also be tried under Sharia courts with one exception: Shi'ite Muslims may try such cases in their own courts. Other civil proceedings include those involving claims against the government and enforcement of foreign judgments
[edit] Human rights and social development
Main article: Human rights in the United Arab Emirates
See also: LGBT rights in United Arab Emirates
The UAE government has made some advances in the protection of human rights in recent years, the U.S. Department of State notes in its annual[specify] report on human rights practices that numerous fundamentalist practices and policies exist to the contrary.
Many major human rights organizations consider the United Arab Emirates to not meet basic standards of democracy.[51]
Migrants, mostly of South Asian origin, constitute for 42.5% of the UAE』s workforce[52] and are subject to a range of human rights abuses. Workers typically arrive in debt to recruitment agents from home countries and upon arrival are often made to sign a new contract in English or Arabic which pays them less than had originally been agreed.[53] Visa and travel costs are typically added on to the original debt, and thus within hours of their arrival, workers often find that their debt-repayment time has increased significantly, possibly by years.
Confiscation of passports is officially illegal, but in reality employers have been known to retain the passports of their semi or unskilled employees. All of the workers interviewed by Human Rights Watch in a 2006 report had had their passports confiscated.[54] The kafala system of employment, which ties an employee to one employer and prevents him or her from seeking alternative employment without the expressed approval of the original employer, operates in the UAE. Workers are therefore dependent on their employer for housing, wages and healthcare. The lack of proper enforcement mechanisms of the country』s labour laws means that in practice employers may break laws with little fear of prosecution. Accordingly, non-payment of wages, cramped and unsanitary living conditions, poor safety practices, physical and mental abuse are widespread. Local government representatives of South-Asian governments, such as Indian, Pakistani, Sri-Lankan and Bangladeshi consulates have also been of little help in providing representation for their nationals in such cases.
The issue of sexual abuse among female domestic servants is an area of concern, particularly given that domestic servants are not covered by the UAE Labour Law of 1980 or the Draft Labour Law of 2007, which was heavily criticised by Human Rights Watch.[55] In 2007 the falling dollar meant workers were unable to service debts and the incidence of suicides among Indian workers had reportedly been on the increase.[56] Worker protests have been heavily cracked down on with reports of collective expulsion and imprisonment.[57] The government has ignored international pressure to introce trade unions despite repeated promises to do so going back to 2004.[58]
From the perspective of international human rights law, the UAE is in violation of its obligations under the terms of the International Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Racial Discrimination, in particular where its treatment of non-citizens is concerned. It is in violation of its obligations under the terms of the International Convention on the Elimination of Discrimination Against Women, particularly where its treatment of domestic workers is concerned. Recent initiatives to stamp out the practice of child labor have headed off criticism that it violates its obligations under the terms of the International Convention on the Rights of the Child. There is also an argument that the UAE is in violation of its obligation to stamp out the debt bondage and furthermore that the state is itself involved in it and profits from that debt bondage.[59]
As Sharia prohibits 'sodomy', homosexual relationships are not commonly disclosed.[60][61] Homosexual behavior in public may result in imprisonment and/or deportation.[62]
The UAE also does not allow indivials past retirement age to stay within the country without a job. Upon retirement, residents must return to their country of origin. People with TB, Hepatitis C and AIDS are also at a disadvantage as any non-citizen found with these illnesses may be deported.[63][64]
Discrimination in the workplace has also been reported; prospective employers will specify religion, nationality (and even regional origin in some cases) and also specify the sex of required candidates within job advertisements. However, this is often a necessity e to modesty considerations in traditional societies as well as language requirements in a country where much of the population does not speak the national language. Different pay scales may also occur depending on nationality and sex in order to rece an overwhelming reliance on foreign labour. Policies are in place in certain instances where state employers are required to fill in vacancies with UAE nationals, a process called Emiratisation.[65]
迪拜
Du (in Arabic: دبيّ, Dubayy) is one of the seven emirates and the most populous city of the United Arab Emirates (UAE). It is located along the southern coast of the Persian Gulf on the Arabian Peninsula. The Du Municipality is sometimes called Du city to distinguish it from the emirate.
Written accounts document the existence of the city for at least 150 years prior to the formation of the UAE. Du shares legal, political, military and economic functions with the other emirates within a federal framework, although each emirate has jurisdiction over some functions such as civic law enforcement and provision and upkeep of local facilities. Du has the largest population and is the second largest emirate by area, after Abu Dhabi.[5] Du and Abu Dhabi are the only two emirates to possess veto power over critical matters of national importance in the country's legislature.[6] Du has been ruled by the Al Maktoum dynasty since 1833. Du's current ruler, Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, is also the Prime Minister and Vice President of the UAE.
The emirate's main revenues are from tourism, real estate and financial services.[7] Although Du's economy was originally built on the back of the oil instry,[8] revenues from petroleum and natural gas currently contribute less than 6% (2006)[9] of the emirate's US$ 37 billion economy (2005).[10] Real estate and construction, on the other hand, contributed 22.6% to the economy in 2005, before the current large-scale construction boom.[11] Du has attracted attention through its real estate projects [12] and sports events. This increased attention, coinciding with its emergence as a Global City[13] and business hub, has highlighted labour and human rights issues concerning its largely South Asian workforce.[14]
Very little is known about pre-Islamic culture in the south-east Arabian peninsula, except that many ancient towns in the area were trading centers between the Eastern and Western worlds. The remnants of an ancient mangrove swamp, dated at 7,000 years, were discovered ring the construction of sewer lines near Du Internet City. The area had been covered with sand about 5,000 years ago as the coastline retreated inland, becoming a part of the city's present coastline.[16] Prior to Islam, the people in this region worshiped Bajir (or Bajar).[17] The Byzantine and Sassanian empires constituted the great powers of the period, with the Sassanians controlling much of the region. After the spread of Islam in the region, the Umayyad Caliph, of the eastern Islamic world, invaded south-east Arabia and drove out the Sassanians. Excavations undertaken by the Du Museum in the region of Al-Jumayra (Jumeirah) indicate the existence of several artifacts from the Umayyad period.[18] The earliest recorded mention of Du is in 1095, in the "Book of Geography" by the Andalusian-Arab geographer Abu Abllah al-Bakri. The Venetian pearl merchant Gaspero Balbi visited the area in 1580 and mentioned Du (Dibei) for its pearling instry.[18] Documented records of the town of Du exist only after 1799.[19]
In the early 19th century, the Al Abu Falasa clan (House of Al-Falasi) of Bani Yas clan established Du, which remained a dependent of Abu Dhabi until 1833.[20] On 8 January 1820, the sheikh of Du and other sheikhs in the region signed the "General Maritime Peace Treaty" with the British government.[16] However, in 1833, the Al Maktoum dynasty (also descendants of the House of Al-Falasi) of the Bani Yas tribe left the settlement of Abu Dhabi and took over Du from the Abu Fasala clan without resistance.[20] Du came under the protection of the United Kingdom by the "Exclusive Agreement" of 1892, with the latter agreeing to protect Du against any attacks from the Ottoman Empire.[20] Two catastrophes struck the town ring the 1800s. First, in 1841, a smallpox epidemic broke out in the Bur Du locality, forcing residents to relocate east to Deira. Then, in 1894, fire swept through Deira, burning down most homes.
