Video: We will never stop developing, says Sheikh Mohammed

Dubai - We owe it to our country and our people, the Dubai Ruler explained.

In a world full of problems, the only solution is to keep on going.

Those were the sentiments expressed in the latest video released by His Highness Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Vice-President and Prime Minister of the UAE and Ruler of Dubai.

"In the past 40 years, the UAE government made a promise to never stop working... to give hope to its people and the world," the UAE leader said.

"The world’s problems will never end, but we have to keep developing," he continued. "We owe it to our country and our people.”

In the video — shared under the hashtag 'Flashes of Leadership' — the Dubai Ruler's words of wisdom kept time against a fast-moving timelapse of the city's development. Iconic landmarks in the emirate could be seen rapidly taking shape in a fitting representation of how quickly the young Arab nation has developed in the space of the last 50 years.

Time is of the essence, he explained. “We should never waste time, because it doesn’t come back again. Like the waters of the river, it never returns."

Reaffirming his government's commitment to the country and its people, he added, "We will never stop giving... And we will always learn new things, every single day.”
