one of these women was hannah lee corbin of virginia. the sister of richard henry lee. she was a wealthy widow who paid taxes on her land. in 1778 she wrote a scathing letter to her brother asking why revolutionary principles did not apply to her. why, she asked, should she be deprived of her voice and representation when she had as much stake in society as many men? her brother, richard henry lee, was flabbergasted. he simply did not anticipate this line of inquiry, and he had no adequate rejoinder for her question. he simply pointed to custom and tradition as the grounds of exclusion. but what this meant in fact was that hannah lee corbin and all the widows paying taxes like her were being deprived of representation simply on the basis of their sex. simply because they were women. surely no woman in philadelphia of 1776 anticipated this. maybe john adams. because abigail had primed him. now, what happened in new jersey is that the legislature -- legislators in the state of new jersey took this principle of no taxation without representation seriously and took it to it

my name is michael corbin. i've been in the uae almost seven months and business has been my top priority. what i would like to do is start this panel by saying that the uae is very much open for business. i would like to say that this is for two reasons. one, the uae has benefited to a certain extent from the problems in the other arab countries as people are moving there, as businesses are moving there, as tourism is going there, but i would also argue that it's because the uae has positioned itself as a transit hub with the two major airlines, with dubai's ports and airports and abu dhabi coming online, the new sub-saharan african market is developing the market and the stands are developing, but i would like to focus on the subject of this panel while the traditional areas of business, aviation, defense infrastructure are moving ahead in uae, was there a pause, but now they are moving ahead and they are continuing in those years. the world future energy summit earlier this year provides an opportunity for u

. >> senator corbin. >> good morning. >> good morning. >> good to see you. we can all stipulate you have an extraordinarily challenging job. i want to ask you a question about the dna testing of detainees. i know you are a former federal prosecutor and attorney general so you know how powerful a tool dna can be in a law enforcement investigation. as a matter of fact, to digress, we've had an important violence against women reauthorization on the bill probably this afternoon or tomorrow and i'm offering a bipartisan amendment that will address the 400,000 estimated, untested rape kits that currently are sitting in police lockers and elsewhere, which as we all know is a powerful tool to help identify what in many instances are serial perpetrators of sexual assault. but let me bring you back to 2005. senator kyl and i sponsored the dna fingerprint act during the last reauthorization of the violence against women act. this gave federal law enforcement authority to collect small dna samples from all federal arrestees and detainees just like we take fingerprints

i might ask ambassador corbin to address it first because it has to do with advice on how to engage in gcc countries on private equity funds and certainly i've had some experience with such entities in the uae. if you might offer a few words on that and then i'd invite other panelists whose countries do have either sovereign investment funds or very active private equity funds to offer their comments as well. >> i would just say this is an area where obviously the emirates have a great interest in this. there was, you know, the 2008 crash in dubai which also affected abu dhabi and it was a wake-up call and they are moving beyond that. as i said last year, there was a hold on a lot of outward-looking projections that were lifted and they are moving forward with their investments and they are again, open for business again and there were arab spring concerns, which they've addressed now. they are moving forward. i think that the overall message is that the pause that we saw last year is pretty much over, but there will be concerns as they go forward and they're certainly focused on what
