Missha is a high quality cosmetic chain from Korea, which will be opening fourteen stores in the GCC by the end of 2007. This agreement was made in alliance with Dubai based commerce giant Al Tayer Group and the Korean cosmetic company Able C&C Co Ltd that has rights to the Missha brand.

The first store will be opened by the end of this year, and to ultimately reach all ends of the GCC by the end of next year. Missha has a wide range of products varying from skincare and makeup to fragrance.

Al Tayer Group believes that the Missha brand will add diversification in products to consumers and will be as successful as the Al Tayer brand Areej, the UAE’s second largest perfumes and cosmetics retail chain.

With new brands being provided to the GCC market, sales are increasing dramatically, subsequently affecting the demand for retail employment for sales positions to advertising position for retail companies like Missha.

The Arab World which includes the GCC states and UAE will receive $1 trillion in total investments to generate 100 million new jobs opportunities by 2010. These investments like Missha, should be directed towards the manufacturing, retail and service sector rather than the already booming real estate and construction sector.

Dubai Studio City comes after the creation of Dubai Media City.  Both of these zones are part of the super company Dubai Holding.  As Toronto and Vancouver, Canada can be considered Hollywood North, Dubai Studio City will certainly be the Hollywood of the Middle East.  It will be dedicated to film, television and music production at all levels.

Dubai Studio City will span a massive 22 million square feet across the desert.  It will integrate all stages of production.  From pre–production, to casting, to filming to post–production ? all of it will be capable of being completed in Dubai Studio City.  

There will be Hollywood–style sets, sound stages and back lots to rival the infamous Warner Brothers Studios in Burbank, California.  Workers at all levels will be congregating in DSC, from actors to directors to set designers to costume designers; all of them will find work in this haven.

At the International Indian Film Academy (IIFA) Awards in 2006 the aspirations of Dubai Studio City were made known.  The director of Dubai Media City said the he hoped that there could be an integration of the massive Indian film industry into Dubai Studio City.  This would be a big step forward for DSC if they were to get business from the Indian film industry, the world?s largest film industry, surpassing the United States in the amount of movies released each year.

But wait, there?s even more to Dubai Studio City.  Not only will Dubai Studio City serve as a home for talent, it will serve as the birthplace and educational institution for talent.  There will be residential areas for workers and staff, cinemas, amphitheatres and film schools.

You may not have heard of it yet, but you?ll definitely be hearing about it in years to come.  No, you did not read the title of this article incorrectly, it really did say Dubailand.  

Dubailand was first announced in 2003 as the brainchild of Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Dubai?s current ruler.  Think not of it as a mere amusement park, no, this is a fully–fledged city upon itself.  To put things in perspective: Dubailand will be twice the size of Walt Disney World in Orlando, Florida.  There will be six worlds that each has its own unique offering.  

The first phase, City of Arabia, has an estimated $4 billion USD price tag.  It is not as if reception had been lukewarm at first for this eccentrically wondrous idea.  Private investors exceeded expectations by providing a whopping $6 billion for it.  As of now, the groundwork for this prime attraction of Dubailand has been laid and soon rising out of the sands of Dubai?s deserts will we see the infantile stages of Dubailand.  Then we will truly begin to fathom the scale of this project.  The City of Arabia itself will not be completed until 2008.  

The City of Arabia will be the heart and soul of Dubailand.  The City will include everything from residential areas to shopping malls.  The Elite Towers will serve as both a residential and commercial area.  There will be living space, boutiques, hotels and office space.  

The Elite Towers do not seem to sound nearly as amazing when compared to the Mall of Arabia.  This is going to be the Mecca for shopaholics.  The Mall of Arabia will be the largest shopping mall in the world.  It will be a massive 10 million square feet big. There will be 1000 stores of all kinds housed on four floors along with a 15–screen cinema.  There is also the educational dinosaur–themed park, Restless Planet.  With over 100 animatronic dinosaurs and real fossils, tourists of all ages can enjoy the area.

Of course, there are many other aspects to Dubailand apart from the City of Arabia.  Areas of all sorts of themes will make up Dubailand.  Such areas include: Global Village, SnowDome, Dubai Autodrome, Dubai Sports City, and many others.

With all of these advancing projects there is a call for people to aid with the labor.  Dubailand not only provides the opportunity for tourists to visit Dubai and have an unforgettable experience, it also offers the opportunity to job seekers across the globe.  From architects to engineers to housekeepers to chefs, Dubailand encompasses almost every imaginable sector.  There will be endless opportunities at Dubailand for job seekers heading to the UAE.
