When he is not revealing plans for mega projects like the $3bn Al Habtoor City or the mixed-use development in Cairo, revealed last month, he is buying overseas hospitality assets or expressing his opinion in the media. Op-eds from Al Habtoor last year ranged across topics from relinquishing his support for American presidential hopeful Donald Trump to criticising the United Kingdom’s immigration policy for domestic workers. The Emirati billionaire also announced he was allocating Dhs 2bn for international hospitality acquisitions in 2016, to add to his properties in Lebanon, Budapest and the United States.
