Dr. Saeed Al Ameri, Board Member of We Are All the Emirates Association, headed the lecture held at the Majlis of Al Bayt Mitwahid in Ras Al Khaimah.
A large number of locals and Al Bayt Mitwahid pioneers attended the lecture, where they raised their voices to praise the UAE’s wise leadership for placing the security and happiness of citizens at the top of their priorities.
Yousuf Sultan, Secretary of the Majlis of Al Bayt Mitwahid first welcomed the attendees and then stressed that the Year of Zayed is a year of giving and an opportunity to recall the achievements and the legacy of the late Founding Father.
The Secretary then thanked and expressed his utmost gratitude and appreciation to the UAE’s wise leadership for their great efforts in caring and providing a decent life for the people of the UAE. He also thanked the We Are All the Emirates Association for its role in promoting national, social and cultural endeavors.
On his behalf, Dr. Saeed Al Ameri also thanked the wise leadership, namely: His Highness Sheikh Khalifa bin Zayed Al Nahyan, President of the UAE; His Highness Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Vice President and Prime Minister of the UAE and Ruler of Dubai; and His Highness Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan, Crown Prince of Abu Dhabi and Deputy Supreme Commander of the UAE Armed Forces.
He also praised the attention paid by His Highness Sheikh Saud bin Saqr Al Qasimi, Member of the Supreme Council and Ruler of Ras Al Khaimah, and the patrons of cultural and social meetings that emphasize national cohesion, brotherhood and national unity. Additionally, Dr. Al Ameri then conveyed the greetings of His Highness Sheikh Theyab bin Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan, President of the We Are All the Emirates Association.
Dr. Al Ameri then stated: "The Year of Zayed, announced by His Highness Sheikh Khalifa bin Zayed Al Nahyan, President of the UAE, is dedicated towards the cherished love that we hold so deeply within our hearts to the late Sheikh Zayed. This year is but a testament to our loyalty to our founding father and of our dreams to follow in his footsteps.
"His Highness the President of the UAE visualized the Year of Zayed as an occasion to display the achievements of a great leader who was able to establish a modern state in a historical stage where even the most optimistic of people did not dream of such a thing. However – and through determination and will – the UAE is now a leader in various fields from development and urbanization to human development, which the late Sheikh Zayed had steadfastly supported since taking office on August 6, 1968. Through this Initiative, His Highness the President sought to raise the awareness amongst the younger generations regarding the challenges and difficulties faced by our Founding Father while transforming the state from a desert to an international destination. His Highness also aimed the Initiative at confirming that through will and determination nothing is impossible, and to highlight the true role model we should all seek to emulate.”
Dr. Al Ameri then proceeded by speaking about the challenges that the Founding Father had faced, and how he was able to prevail through his wisdom and foresight for the region’s future. Zayed's philosophy on how to build the state was exclusively political. Hence, HH believed that the state’s continuity was based on human development and was concerned with instilling religious and moral values, especially patriotism.
The Founder's Memorial, is a historical beacon and the embodiment of Zayed's genius, his splendid works and his unitary vision. It stands as a lasting tribute of the glory and eternal humanitarian work that must be highlighted to all peoples of the world to demonstrate our love, loyalty and a confirmation that his teachings will forever remain in our hearts and minds.
Dr. Al Ameri continued: “When speaking about the late Sheikh Zayed, his legacy and his accomplishments, we cannot but mention the most similar personality in form, ethics, wisdom and statesmanship of our time; His Highness Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan. It is also inevitable to talk about the achievements, dreams and aspirations of His Highness the Crown Prince of Abu Dhabi, taking upon himself the security and well-being of his subjects.”
The message of appreciation sent by His Highness Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Vice President and Prime Minister of the UAE and Ruler of Dubai, to His Highness Sheikh Mohamed bin Zayed is a sincere representation of the love and loyalty the UAE holds towards His Highness Sheikh Mohamed bin Zayed. It proudly reflects and displays the cohesion of the people of the UAE and their commitment to the strategies, visions and ideas of His Highness. As HH continues to work towards further enhancing the state’s status and achieving the well-being and security of both nationals and residents of this beautiful country, His Highness has truly earned such feelings and loyalty.
"If we make even a simple comparison, we will immediately be able to see the qualitative leap achieved by His Highness Sheikh Mohamed bin Zayed in the educational, cultural, social, political, security, military and economic sectors,” he said. “Thank you, Mohamed bin Zayed, for your benevolence, and for working for the current and future generations. Thank you for depriving yourself from the many means of comfort and well-being to ensure our security and happiness—thus making us one of the happiest people in the world. Thank you for equalizing our stance with the other developed countries. From the people of the UAE and from all over the world, please accept our sincerest of gratitude.”
Concluding the lecture, HE Dr. Saeed Al Ameri, Board Member of We Are All the Emirates Association, stressed that the late Zayed will forever remain the source of giving, inspiration and infinite generosity, a humanitarian pioneer and a role model for tolerance and patriotism.
