His Highness Sheikh Hamdan bin Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Crown Prince of Dubai and Chairman of the Dubai Executive Council, has assured the people of UAE that the country will 'overcome' the 'challenging' coronavirus situation soon if they stay united.
In a tweet late on Thursday evening, he said:
"Today I chaired a virtual meeting of the Supreme Committee for Crisis and Disaster Management in Dubai and was briefed on the committee's efforts and coordination with government entities to ensure a robust mechanism in dealing with developments linked to Covid-19.
"Thankfully, the situation is under control. We trust in our community's compliance, their awareness is what will get us through this transient time.
"Our only goal now is your protection, and achieving the health and safety of all will always rank highest on our priorities. We stand united with our frontline heroes for their eternally valued efforts. A huge thanks also goes out to all citizens and residents for their exemplary cooperation in implementing the precautionary measures taken in Dubai over the past few weeks.
Obstacles and challenges are two words that don't exist in the UAE's dictionary. We believe in hope & opportunity & we're confident in our ability to overcome the repercussions of COVID-19 through concerted efforts that will resume our stride to success. The best is yet to come."
