In Dubai (Shariya) Law it is an offence not only to miss a mortgage payment but even to ask for a delay. As the offence is instantly punishable by imprisonment The World credit crisis meant many expatriates fled the country rather than admit they had a problem. Paradoxically Dubai World were forced to ask for a delay in making interest payments on their lending. As they are in the property business this created a self perpetuating spiral with properties falling vacant at a time when Dubai Worlds' cashflow needed property take-up the most. Abu-Dhabi has previously provided a degree of "guarantee" to the Dubai economy but this time they have been slow to step in. Hence confidence is low & the pack of cards is starting to wobble.
