After all they may suggest that letting Nakheel go bust is the best option....


So with US$ 17bn raised - why is there an issue about repaying Nakeel's US$3.5 bn sukuk in December.

Where did the money go ?
I understand that most of the money raised is for continued infrastructure development - metro, tram, Al Maktoum airport etc.
