Belarus at the crossroads
Article Abstract:
Since the break-up of the Soviet Union in 1991, the sovereign state of Belarus has attracted little attention from Western investors. The country is politically stable, unlike many former Soviet states, and is seeking to establish a new relationship with Moscow and its former Comecon neighbours. Despite a lack of natural resources, Belarus has the potential to attract overseas money, with a skilled workforce, a good transport network and social stability. Foreign investment in Belarus is being led by German companies, mainly in the form of joint ventures.

Crossroads to the world
Article Abstract:
Dubai's recent growth promises to continue or even escalate as new infrastructure plans proceed and other economies develop and need its services. While the oil sector continues to provide a stable economic base, non-oil trade has grown over 15% annually for the past decade, not counting re-exports to other emirates or the shoppers who flock from overseas. The emirate is strategically located with easy access by air or sea, with low import duties, no trade barriers, no taxes, a skilled workforce, and low-cost energy.
