This video of HH Sheikh Mohammed Bin Rashid Al Maktoum is recirculating online because of his passion to improve the country since he became a leader
The video from 2007 shows that the Ruler of Dubai has been committed to making the city the greatest in every way, since the very beginning…
He has envisioned the best for his country and its people since he became UAE Vice President, Prime Minister, and Ruler of Dubai in 2006. His Highness hasn’t stopped working towards his dream for the last 17 years since the interview took place. It definitely shows with the countless awards and accolades the country has won since!

‘I want my people to live a better life now. To go to the highest of schools now and to get good health care now. Not after 20 years’ – HH Sheikh Mohammed, 2007
This was objectively the most visionary and accountable part of the interview, when the Sheikh responded to the question, ‘Why are you in such a hurry?’. The interviewer, Steve Kroft, asked the question in reference to the Sheikh’s determination to improve the country over a 5-year period instead of what any other world leader would try to achieve in a lifetime.
The leadership of the UAE is something that the world has never seen before; the country is progressing at a rate that was unimaginable. They have exceeded all expectations and broken the boundaries but still continue to develop and improve into the future.
The Ruler of Dubai’s drive, ambition, and humility contributed to the 1 million views the video racked up in just a day, with citizens, residents, and tourists commending HH with thousands of positive comments.
This. IS. Success.
