As travelers from across the world land in Dubai, a new project is making headlines in the mega city.
Under the directives of His Highness Sheikh Hamdan bin Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Crown Prince of Dubai, Deputy Prime Minister, Minister of Defence, and Chairman of the Dubai Executive Council, and the Mohammed Bin Rashid Al Maktoum Knowledge Foundation (MBRF), a project titled ‘Documenting the Legacy of Sheikh Rashid’, has been launched.
The project will include an archive that tells the story of the late Sheikh Rashid bin Saeed Al Maktoum, former Vice President and Prime Minister of UAE, and former Ruler of Dubai’s leadership and his important qualities. He helped Dubai become a successful city and has been a role model for many people.
Jamal bin Huwaireb, the CEO of MBRF, recently highlighted the significance of a new initiative and said that it is to instill a sense of national pride and showcase the legacy of the UAE’s founding fathers to future generations. Bin Huwaireb also emphasized that Sheikh Rashid played a crucial role in shaping modern Dubai and, alongside Sheikh Zayed bin Sultan Al Nahyan, laid the groundwork for the UAE’s development.
