No US backlash to ports deal if Singapore had won instead
No US backlash to ports deal if Singapore had won instead
Gulfnews.com, by Leah Bower Dubai: Former US Secretary of Defence William Cohen told Gulf News that American reaction to the purchase of P&O would have been different if Singapore's PSA had won the deal. Echoing the opinion of DP World's leadership, Cohen said that few people in the US knew anything about Dubai, except that it was in the Middle East.IMHO he is absolutely correct. Most Americans didn't know anything about UAE or Dubai and probably still don't. Heck, a lot of people couldn't find Louisiana on map, let alone the UAE. Most people don't know anything about Singapore either, but it isn't Arab/Muslim so nobody cares.
