If oil prices are up 50% why are government salaries up only 25%? Do we know where all the rest of the UAE windfall is going?

Anonymous,

I know as little as I have been able to find out. I know what Abu Dhabi Investment Authority is, but what little I know about it comes primarily from the IMF country report, which more clout than I do, rather from information provided to the public by the ADIA.
