    Oh Awesome!!! Its’ great news….. Today Morning I read the news in Gulf Newspaper too. What a kind person he is…. Our own Company Staff and Workers happened to see this person from close vicinity for two times now. Latest on the occasion of his visit at Lego Land, constructed by our Company and duly opened to public. In earlier occasion… he simply visited Burj Khalifa during our construction period…. Everybody respects him lot…and he gestures everyone with prudent smile. Being in Gulf Country, State like Dubai….not even a single barrel oil for export but still Dubai is standing tall in the World Map…..unimaginable and gifted person too. Many people in this forum may not like this….but ever since NaMo started State Visits…World Leaders started looking at India differently now

    Sheikh Mohammed of Dubai is respected by both nationals and expats in the UAE. Modi should have ideally invited both Sheikh Mohammed of Dubai (who is also the VP and PM of UAE) and Sheikh Mohammed of Abu Dhabi for our Republic Day function in 2017.

    HH Sheikh Mohd is one of the best leaders in the world and broadminded No.1 leader in Middle East. Because of him Dubai became one of the best and peaceful city in the world and attracting many foreigners to settle here. No other GCC leaders are in his level in development and giving respect to the expatriates. God bless him.

    There are a very few political leaders in this world who are true visionaries. Shaikh Mohammed is the one who stands taller among all the rest. It is the transformation of Dubai with all round development, since past 10-15years proves that fact.

    In a world where religious fanaticism is on the raise, Dubai manages it with great sensibility. This is something to learn.

    His another ability is to encourage people with real talent and skills. This has added value in his developmental objectives.

    In current world scenario, I admire him the most in political leadership.

    Great Gesture indeed. .
    Dubai is so peaceful and flourished because it is governed by good hearted rulers.
    We cant match Dubai standard at,
    because
    of our weak laws, govts appeasement policy for votes more particularly problems thing called DEMOCRACY.

    HH Shaikh Mohammed is a Visionary leader and given room to all religious people to practice their religion without any fear. We celebrated Diwali in full swing with our fellow Hindu brothers even though its a Muslim country with official religion as Islam.
    Shankar, I am pity on you man, grow beyond andha bhakth, MMS was one of the best PM of India, best academic, economist we had. The only problem we had with him was he had few wrong colleagues in his cabinet. We NRI's make good to our motherland in terms of foreign exchange and thank to Mr.Modi our salaries are increased in terms of IRs due to bad exchange rate of IRSs with USD and it went few months back near to 19 IRs to a AED and still you are giving credit to him..Lol
