ITP's Arabian Business last week ran a story saying work on Emaar's Burj development had stopped, as workers were on strike demanding better pay. By the next day the story was pulled, and no mention was made of the city's biggest labor dispute until an Arabtec press release appeared clarifying it was now business as usual. Yesterday Arabian Business awarded Mohamed Alabbar its Lifetime Achievement award, hailing the Emaar chief's 'far-sighted approach, innovative thinking and flawless execution'.There's no disputing Mr Alabbar's mover-and-shaker credentials, but ITP could be a little less crass with its timing.
