Coinciding with the 34th anniversary of Sheikh Rashid's passing on October 7, 1990, the project features an integrated archive that highlights his exemplary leadership journey, character traits, values, and principles. Sheikh Rashid made an indelible mark on the history of Dubai and the UAE, playing a pivotal role in the city's renaissance and transformation into a global model for economic, commercial, and urban development.
His Excellency Jamal bin Huwaireb, CEO of MBRF, stated that Sheikh Hamdan's directive to document Sheikh Rashid's life journey reflects a deep sense of national and civilizational pride. This initiative will serve to showcase the legacy of the founding fathers to future generations. He emphasized that Sheikh Rashid was the architect of Dubai’s modern transformation and, together with the late Sheikh Zayed bin Sultan Al Nahyan, laid the groundwork for the UAE's foundational phase.
“The 'Documenting the Legacy of Sheikh Rashid' project represents a remarkable historical and knowledge-based initiative,” said HE Bin Huwaireb. “It narrates the inspiring journey of a great leader who laid the foundation for modern Dubai. His vision and insights have made the emirate a global destination renowned for its comprehensive development and prosperity, providing an exemplary model for economic, urban, and leadership growth.”
In addition to enhancing national pride and appreciation for true Emirati values, documenting Sheikh Rashid’s journey will offer scholars and future generations a reliable resource on a key figure in Emirati history. This documentation aims to inspire young minds and equip them with the foresight needed for future success.
Sheikh Rashid's life and leadership are pivotal to understanding Dubai and the UAE's history. His vision, thoughts, and ambitions were instrumental in shaping a city known for its forward-thinking attitude, strong determination, and clear perspective. He believed that continuous efforts are vital for a nation's development, a principle that remains integral to a prosperous future.
Dedicated to serving his country and its people, Sheikh Rashid laid the groundwork for Dubai’s comprehensive development. His initiatives transformed the city into a leading global hub for finance, commerce, and tourism, showcasing a viable development model that other nations now look to emulate.
Sheikh Rashid’s influence is evident across various sectors in the UAE, from the establishment of the nation to its holistic development. His empowering vision manifests in Dubai's ongoing economic growth and outstanding infrastructure, including advanced road networks, bridges, ports, and expanding power and water grids.
Beyond business and tourism, Sheikh Rashid's leadership extended to crucial areas such as banking, commerce, and education. His timely strategic decisions and the promulgation of relevant laws ensured that these sectors significantly contributed to the emirate's overall economic and social development, thereby enhancing the quality of life for citizens and residents alike.
The "Documenting the Legacy of Sheikh Rashid" project not only commemorates a significant leader but also serves as a vital resource for understanding the ethos and values that define the UAE today.
