Corruption in Dubai

From the FT a very interesting development: Dubai fund chief held as graft probe widens. This shall be very interesting to follow. Shall try a comment further tomorrow.

Although I have some indirect conflicts in this area.

Rhyming and the subconscious: after I read this title, the Serge Gainsbourg song "SS in Uruguay " has been stuck in my head all day. And why not... sous un chapeau de paille, ai ai ai.

Now, what do you make of this in political terms? Are they eventually cracking down on corruption, or is it rather one faction using it as a vehicle to get rid of rivals?
