Dignitaries abounded at the three-day event, as outlined in an extract from The National:
Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid attended the opening day of the 20th Dubai International Arabian Horse Championship on Friday.
The Vice President and Ruler of Dubai hailed the global status of the long-standing beauty competition, featuring 151 purebred horses competing across 14 categories for a share of a total prize fund of $4 million.
He said the world-class event, being staged at Dubai World Trade Centre until Sunday, has cemented the UAE’s position as an equestrian hub.
This year’s show includes a number of horses that have won medals in equestrian beauty contests in the UAE and Qatar, as well as in the World Horse Championship held annually in Paris, France.
Sheikh Mohammed, joined by Sheikha Hessa bint Hamdan Al Maktoum and Helal Al Marri, director general of Dubai’s Department of Economy and Tourism, also toured the 17th Dubai International Horse Fair, which is being held alongside the championship.
A Tribute to Classic Arabic Songs – A Red Sea Translation Project
The Red Sea Translation Team continues its quest to build bridges between cultures, this time by providing Arabic-English Translations for timeless Arabic Classics. We started by translating lyrics for Umm Kulthum and Kathem Al Saher and decided to also show case the work of other old-school greats such as the late Abu Bakr Salem.
The latest song to be translated by the team is a rather obscure but magnificent song by Yemeni artist Ali bin Ali Al-Ansi (1933-1981). Red Sea’s Adel Alhaimi translated the lyrics and the video was produced by the Red Sea media team.
Do visit our YouTube Channel (through the link below or via the above video) and let us know if you have any Arabic classic favourites you’d like us to consider for future projects.

SOME MIND-BLOWING REFLECTIONS FROM PROFESSOR MICHIO KAKU
ONLINE ARTICLES ON THE DEWA RISK & RESILIENCE CONFERENCE 2018:
Dubai Electricity and Water Authority (DEWA) has today organised the ‘Risk & Resilience Conference 2018,’ under the patronage of HH Sheikh Hamdan bin Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Crown Prince of Dubai and Chairman of the Executive Council of Dubai, with the theme ‘Enlightening Today’s Unknowns for Tomorrow.’ The conference, which was organised in partnership with Ernst & Young, was attended by HE Saeed Mohammed Al Tayer, MD & CEO of DEWA; HE Aisha Miran. Assistant Secretary General, Strategy Management and Governance Sector at the Executive Council of Dubai; Dr. Ahmed Al Nusairat, Coordinator General of the Dubai Government Excellence Program (DGEP); Omran Sharaf, the Emirates Mars Mission Project Manager (Hope Probe) at the Mohammed Bin Rashid Space Centre; Habiba Al Marashi, Chairperson of Emirates Environmental Group; DEWA’s Executive Vice Presidents and Vice Presidents, and officials from the government and private sectors.
A number of international speakers in risk and resilience took part in the conference, which was organised in Madinat Jumeirah in Dubai. These included Michio Kaku, an American theoretical physicist; Mark Gallagher, a motivational speaker in car racing; David Coulthard, a Formula 1 champion; and other prominent experts.
“This year’s conference is particularly important due to the essential role of risk management, resilience, and business continuity in realising DEWA’s updated vision to become a Sustainable Innovative Leading Utility. It also supports DEWA’s efforts to implement the directives of His Highness Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Vice President and Prime Minister of the UAE and Ruler of Dubai, to be prepared for the rapid changes, according to a vision that not only anticipates the future, but makes it. DEWA operates a rigorous risk management system, bolstering its resilience by anticipating risks and preparing for change, to ensure business continuity. We also adapt our work environment and operations to support national strategies and goals, and deliver uninterrupted supplies of reliable electricity and water services to over 850,000 customers in Dubai according to the highest levels of availability, reliability, and quality worldwide,” said Al Tayer in his keynote speech in the conference.
Professor Michio Kaku, a renowned theoretical physicist, futurist, and popular science communicator, revealed what our future world would look like at this year’s Risk and Resilience Conference 2018 held in Dubai on Sunday.
A keynote speaker at the conference with the theme ‘Enlightening Today’s Unknowns for Tomorrow’, Professor Kaku said the future is bright for countries and governments that capitalise on intelligence capital and Dubai is doing exactly that.
“The engine of prosperity is science and technology. Those countries which embrace those principles will be rich. Those countries that only believe in old fashioned commodities like agriculture and food unfortunately, those prices keep dropping every year and they will be poor in the future,” Professor Kaku told Gulf News at the conference organised by Dubai Electricity and Water Authority (Dewa) in partnership with Ernst and Young.
