A blast from the past!<\/span><\/h2>\n

On Tuesday, 21 June 1977, Britain\u2019s age-old newspaper The Times\u00a0<\/em>ran a special report on the UAE. It had only been five to six years since the nascent country had joined together to form the United Arab Emirates.<\/p>\n

The rare images of the first two pages of the paper just surfaced online from the Instagram page @dubaihistory<\/a> famous for uploading historic pictures of Dubai and the other Emirates.<\/p>\n

The photos of the old broadsheet feature headlines at the top followed by an advertisement on the front page, much like how UAE newspapers look even today. If you have a quick look at the headlines, you won\u2019t be surprised to find that the achievement streak of the UAE had started since its earliest days.<\/p>\n
