UAE President Mohamed bin Zayed designates February 28 as Emirati Day of Education

 


In recognition of the vital role education plays in the UAE’s development vision, President His Highness Sheikh Mohamed bin Zayed has officially designated February 28 as the Emirati Day of Education. This day celebrates the contributions of everyone involved in the education system and highlights the UAE’s ongoing commitment to education as a core pillar of its national development.

His Highness underscored that education has been central to the UAE’s plans since the nation’s founding. The annual observance will honor the key role education plays in societal development and the UAE’s cultural and intellectual renaissance.

February 28 holds historical significance, as it commemorates the graduation of the first group of teachers from UAE University in 1982, a milestone event attended by the Founding Father, the late Sheikh Zayed bin Sultan Al Nahyan, and other Rulers of the Emirates.

Sheikh Mohamed bin Zayed stressed that strengthening education has always been a top priority for the UAE leadership, serving as a major driver of progress. The establishment of this special day reflects the leadership’s steadfast belief in the power of education to build future generations and promote national growth.

Education remains a focal point in the UAE’s leadership agenda, as the country prioritizes human development by enhancing individual capabilities and accelerating national progress. The UAE's National Strategy for Higher Education 2030 aims to equip future generations with the technical and practical skills needed to thrive in a post-fossil fuel economy, ensuring a prosperous and sustainable future for the nation.

Exposing the Brotherhood: Why Jordan’s Terror Cell Bust Must Spark a Global Policy Shift

 The recent dismantling of a Muslim Brotherhood-affiliated terror cell in Jordan should not be seen as just a national security success—it must be a turning point in how the international community views and responds to the threat posed by the Brotherhood. Jordanian security forces uncovered an elaborate network of terrorists trained in Lebanon and backed by foreign interests. Their mission: to launch attacks using rockets and drones, destabilizing the Kingdom and spreading fear among civilians. This is not the work of activists or political dissidents—this is terrorism, plain and simple. For too long, the Muslim Brotherhood has operated under a false image of moderation, cleverly navigating between political activism and violent extremism. But the truth is clear: the Brotherhood is the ideological engine room of jihadist terrorism. Its members, affiliates, and offshoots have inspired and directed acts of violence from North Africa to the Gulf—and now, once again, in Jordan. Govern...

Sky Care: How the UAE’s First Hospital Vertiport is Redefining Emergency Response

  Imagine a critical patient, a time-sensitive organ for transplant, or a specialist medical team needed across a bustling city. On the ground, traffic is a formidable adversary, where every minute lost can alter outcomes. Now, imagine that same journey taking minutes instead of an hour, not by navigating the roads, but by soaring gracefully above them. This is not a scene from a sci-fi film; it is the new reality in the United Arab Emirates. In a landmark move that solidifies its position on the global stage of innovation, the UAE has officially launched the nation’s — and the region’s — first hospital-based vertiport at Cleveland Clinic Abu Dhabi.

UK Business Migration to the UAE: An Economic Transformation Set to Triple by 2035

  A significant realignment is underway in the global business landscape. The corridor between the United Kingdom and the United Arab Emirates is experiencing a dramatic surge in traffic, not of tourists, but of companies, entrepreneurs, and capital. Projections indicate that the number of UK businesses operating in the UAE is on a trajectory to triple by the year 2035. This is not a fleeting trend but a strategic migration fueled by a powerful combination of economic foresight and pragmatic policy. For UK businesses, the appeal is clear and compelling. The UAE offers a starkly contrasting environment to the complexities of the European market post-Brexit. The cornerstone of this appeal is a favourable tax regime, featuring zero percent income tax and a competitive corporate tax structure. This financial efficiency is coupled with groundbreaking reforms that allow for one hundred percent foreign ownership of mainland companies, giving investors full control over their ventures. The...
