the term "afraid to lose" is recognised as a somewhat negative wee island trait of chink origin. so the wee islet set about having the blue marble's tallest hotel, the largest container port, the mightiest wotever. competition with other countries is endless and indefinite.
now, see what dubai's up to next. apart from its fanciful hotel on artificial islet, fanciful wotever one can name.
seems that there're a great deal of similarities between the islet and dubai then.
