He is trying to turn his country into the hot spot of the middle east to attract western tourism dollars. That's the reason behind all the crazy stuff they are building. He's using the oil dollars to hopefully build a future revenue for the country before the oil runs out.

That would seem the intelligent guess at first.
But if you look at history....insane men with wealth really only want 1 thing....to be in the history books.
By building this massive wonder of the world, he will be forever in the history books.
A "ROME" in the desert appeared from nothingness in the desert, brought up by the great ruler "So & So".
If you look at it from that angle, you'll see he doesn't much care about his citizens
Only in future history maybe Rome will be replaced with "Dubai" & war will be replaced with "Financial takeover"
