During the event, HE Lt. General Dhahi Khalfan Tamim said that a citizen is measured by his loyalty and sense of belonging, and any deviation from this path is unacceptable by the UAE community – for the UAE is a prime example of solidarity and cohesion throughout Arab history.
HE Lt. General Dhahi Khalfan Tamim called upon citizens to truly know their country and to sacrifice all precious things they own for the sake and benefit of the country. “A positive and progressive citizen is one who seeks to give more to his country without waiting for anything in return,” he added.
In a speech during the forum, Mohammed Omran Al Shamesi said that serving the homeland and the expression of belonging and loyalty to the leadership and dust of the UAE have become a role model for all countries in the world. He added that positive patriotism is actually reflected in the soul of every citizen and resident in this benevolent country.
Al Shamesi extended his gratitude to His Highness Sheikh Khalifa bin Zayed Al Nahyan, President of the UAE, for his continuous care and attention towards elevating the status of the UAE. He also thanked His Highness Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, UAE Vice President, Prime Minister and Ruler of Dubai, who is working continuously to grant the country a distinguished status and to keep it in a leading positions in all fields.
The panel discussion held during the forum raised several issues related to positive patriotism and its values and true meanings. HE Lt. General Dhahi Khalfan Tamim spoke of the importance of being a role model, by showing his sense of belonging to the country and to his leadership, and by avoiding the duplication of distortion of concepts. He noted that the country cannot be divided, and therefore, everyone must show appreciation for what the late HH Sheikh Zayed bin Sultan Al Nahyan has established in this prestigious and caring country.
Tariq Hilal Lootah said that the UAE is approaching the FNC elections, which embodies the spirit of positive patriotism, where citizens should choose their representatives based on credibility and their sincere affiliation with the country, avoiding from favoritism and family ties.
