How it all began?
The Dubai Jebel Ali Free Zone Dream Team
8
They all said – IMPOSSIBLE!!!When the late Ruler of Dubai – His Highness Sheikh Rashid Al Maktoum
Vice President of the UAE suggested the construction of the World’s Largest Manmade Port – Jebel Ali, everyone thought that this was going to end up as aWhite Elephant Project especially as Dubai already had a perfectly good Port – Port Rashid.
Regardless the construction of the Jebel Ali Port & supporting Free Zone went ahead at a cost in excess of USD $2.5 Billion. A Management Team was put together and the Port was launched followed by the
Free Zone in 1985. Those early days were a struggle as we had lots of opposition and when His Highness – Sheikh Mohammed Bin Rashid took over after his father passed away things began to move quickly.
Selling a 67 Berth Deep Water Port – and a place where you didn’t need a local sponsor was unheard ofIn the Middle East – including NO TAX – Whatsoever.
Well as they say THE REST IS HISTORYToday the Economy of Dubai survives because of the decision made by the Late
Sheikh Rashid Al Maktoum – A True Visionary

The former President agreed to provide a Business Free Zone Resort that could compete with Middle East
Duty Free Pricing.The Tinapa Business Resort was conceived and constructed
At a cost in excess of USD $480 Million.Due to Government changes and lack of commitment theTax Free Incentives were greatly diluted resulting in the
Project running into difficulties.The Project has now been taken over by AMCON who are
Working out ways to re‐establish the original Tax Free Concept.

27
What Governments Think?
• Over the years we have been invited to many countries to make presentations and submissions regarding Free Zone
Development.• The questions we are asked are always the
same• “Why should we give away Taxation
Opportunities to attract FDI?”
28
What Governments Think?
• Everyone wants a Free Zone like Dubai/UAE• But they are scared to make that commitment• “We are losing out ‐ By giving something away”• You can’t lose what you don’t have or never will have!!
• What you think you are losing will add to the multiplier effect into your economy
• A PROVEN Economic Model That WORKS!!
29
What Governments Think?
• Many Free Zones are simply set up to FAIL• Over regulation scares investors away• Benchmarking Study will show you how you compare
• SEZ – Special Economic Zones are Free Zones with Taxation and time limits on Business Freedoms
30
What Governments Think?
“But Dubai is a Rich Oil State”
• We have Limited or very low resources• A FTZ can be Started with little or No Investment
• Minimum Government Commitment – 2L• Legislation – Forming the Free Zone Law
• Land – Allocated on Long Term Lease to the FTZ Project FOC – Free of Charge
• Ajman FTZ Started with little or No Investment (but now hosts over 8,000 Investors)
• Ras Al Khaimah has 2 Free Zones now hosting over 17,000 Free Zone Investor Companies
31
The Reality!!!• DSI Ltd has created Free Zones with Zero Funding – Such as the Ajman Free Zone which
now hosts over 8,000 Investors• Obviously Government Investment Helps but
