Erratic showers invite loss in business

UAE has suffered huge losses due to the impact of sudden shower, resulting in business being hit badly. At least tens of millions of dirhams losses has been incurred, pushing the economy of the country down by approximately Dh2.5bn. IMF reckoned that UAE's GDP would reach Dh909.6 billion this year but in the current scenario, it has taken a downward trend. Parts of roads in Dubai and across most of the UAE have been inundated with water over the past two days, making certain parts of the emirates inaccessible. More than 18 million gallons of water had been pumped out from different locations in Dubai and the Sharjah-bound Emirates Road was the most impacted route due to the large amount of rainwater accumulated on Emirates Road.
The partial shutdown in business over three days had made a difference in certain businesses monthly profits, and bearing the plight at this moment are single-outlet restaurant, retailers in malls, flights, schools, offices, places of tourist attractions, etc.
