Hamdan Praises UAE Residents For Covid-19 Response

Says solidarity displayed by various social stakeholders in Dubai in the face of the COVID-19 crisis will be remembered by generations to come

Sheikh Hamdan Bin Mohammed Bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Crown Prince of Dubai and Chairman of Dubai Executive Council, said the Dubai community, including both citizens and residents, have played an invaluable role in fighting the COVID-19 outbreak. The keenness of the community to contribute in times of crises has always been an integral part of Dubai’s social ethos, he said.

“The solidarity displayed by various social stakeholders in Dubai in the face of the COVID-19 crisis will be remembered by generations to come. The remarkable cohesiveness demonstrated by the community and their commitment to meet their social responsibilities is something the world will recognise as an example of how a progressive society should respond to a crisis like this,” Sheikh Hamdan said.

He expressed his appreciation to the team members of the Community Solidarity Fund Against COVID-19 for their efforts to facilitate community contributions to alleviate the economic, social, and health challenges posed by the outbreak.

“We thank all those who contributed to this collective effort including individuals, corporates, charities and various other organisations that helped weather the challenges brought by the crisis,” he said.
