UAE defenitely. The kingdom is now diversifying its revenue collection and as a result dependency on oil is coming down. It is also promoting tourism, as a result the real estate sector and infrastructure growth is likely to see growth going forward. This coupled with the mega Dubai expo is likely to increase spending on key infrastructural projects. Financials is one other area which is looking great in the country after the consolidation that started in the sector.
