Dubai (Port Rashid) : Profile

Location

September 2008 brought news reports that there is an on-going problem here with raw sewage flowing into the harbour. It appears that sewage truck drivers are illegally dumping their tanks in storm drains due to long queues at the official sewage treatment plant.
