Calling his grandfather the founder of modern Dubai, he said that Sheikh Rashid played a crucial role and laid the foundation for Dubai’s economy.

“His words were few, yet his achievements said enough. He valued his country and his people above all else. Rashid bin Saeed, an unforgotten page in history. He left, yet he gifted us a treasure,” Sheikh Hamdan further said in his tribute.
