'Dubai-like' city to be developed near Lahore

[LimaCharlie]

This "city" is destined to be built in lahore, believe it or not, but this is the final plan..

And i like it

There are a lot of similar and better projects in karachi but they don't get attention like this. Why? Because this is an official government project

These are just some of the plans

According to my sources this is a project which would take 15+ years maybe even 20 +

With dha phase 13, phase 10, lda city, gulberg development and this, lahore is set to be an alpha level top class city

Also, lahore is going to stop using underground water resources, the reason we are inaugurating rainwater storages is because there will be a water crisis soon which we cannot afford, therefore, we must preserve it, at the same time, lda and dha are starting to fight for water resources.. Although tahts not relevant to the topic so I won't explain further

This city should ideally be built in South punjab like multan, bawalapur etc if not then more cities on the balochistan and sindh coast. Otherwise lahore will turn into another Karachi in the mean time the government needs to make family planning a serious priority. Pakistan has a serious over population problem that if it is not resolved in a timely manner will lead to chaos due to limited resources in the future.[/QUOTE

In case of flooding, whole city will be under water. I hope city planners have some plans to build rain water drainage system to prevent flooding

This whole 'dubai' thing makes my blood boil. Not only is it cringey but can't they do something original? I personally hate dubai, no culture, no heritage, no nothing , just a lot of money poured in by foreigners and built by south east asians...
This is what happens when you have more money than you need

 

[LimaCharlie]

Also, its not "near" lahore, its in lahore, like a new suburb, its about as far from the centre as dha etc.

 

[LimaCharlie]

The media instigating emotions like this is really infuriating those who know the history of this project.

No it isn't, it was a dead project the moment it was proposed (years ago )
Now is the time when it will actually surface

Why not just upgrade an existing city? Maybe even a small city?

A new city won’t have the oil wealth that Dubai does but you can use that money to upgrade the municipal services of an existing city which is the one thing that stands out about Dubai that’s also achievable

If their issue is traffic then sadly Dubai has that too and it has huge public transport project going on

Unlike UAE Pakistan will have to rely on its low human capital, who knows by in 20 years our human capital might be on 2nd world level instead of being level with sub Saharan Africa.

Naya Lahore Ravi city, a distant dream at the moment.

Over all Lahore now faces street lights issues, policing issues in Johar town, road markings, waste management, smog and long trees hangings. Much work need to be done to over haul Lahore.

Al salam Alikum LimaCharlie , Inshallah you are doing great today

Dubai really is a beautiful city. The UAE as a whole is a fantastic place to visit. It should not boil your blood ! unless you come in the middle of summer and stay outdoors for a while , some blood boiling might take place

Now, this is a myth i have noticed being spread online. Dubai and the UAE (this part of the world) does have a great culture, a lively heritage and a history. A small country like the UAE will understandably mean the history and archeology finds will not be in huge numbers like in Egypt for example, nor will it have the variety. However, this should not mean the UAE doesn't have history. That is a very illogical way of thinking. Makes no sense whatsoever.

Now, Dubai and the UAE in general have gone through a construction boom not seen in recent years. Out of the thousands of projects that have been built, deciding to focus on the few that did not come to fruitarian as planned ? is that even fair ? its normal. This happens to other great cities like Singapore , London , Tokyo and New York.

I do have good news for you though. THE WORLD project is slowly coming along. The Dubai government and the developer are adamant to see this project come to life. google THE WORLD updates and you will notice a lot of recent activity there. Not only that , some resorts and projects have been up and running for quite some time.

To conclude , i will leave you with a picture each of our three main cities in the UAE and some impressive numbers
