Don't get me wrong, I hate foreigners too, but there has to be a method. Always have a method. Like work them from within the system. Spread rumours around, like in 2008 DM will introduce a breathing-tax for all expats. Rents will inrease by 155%. And from now on, residency visas will only be issued upon a successful round of Thursday night Karaoke at Rock Bottom Cafe.

Amazing how all is being done at the same time, the interchanges, the metro, the towers, everything! It must be some job to coordinate all this.

Pictures like these are exciting... like the feeling you get when you start a new town in Sim City, and suddenly this huge plot that's connected to water, electricity and roads, starts to buzz with foundations being set, buildings rising half-way, and population increases.

Landscaping is the final touch always, for a feeling of completion.
