 * I also contest this speedy deletion tag. Fahed Boodai being on the Arabian Business Rich List and presiding over $1.5 billion of real estate assets are two credible claims of importance - and they are not the only ones in the article. I can't see this fulfilling the definition of CSD A7 however far you stretch it. (Sorry Alan.) No comment on whether the subject satisfies the notability criteria for biographies though. —  Mr. Stradivarius ♫ 07:47, 28 April 2012 (UTC)
