HH Sheikh Mohammed's Inspiring Book 'My Vision; Challenges In The Race For Excellence' Launched In Malayalam

The Malayalam edition of My Vision; Challenges in the Race for Excellence, one of the best-selling and inspirational book, authored by His Highness Sheikh Mohammed Bin Rashid Al Maktoum, UAE Vice-President and Prime Minister and Ruler of Dubai, was launched at a special event in Dubai.

The Malayalam language version of My Vision; Challenges in the Race for Excellence, follows the successful launch of the book in Arabic, English and Mandarin.

The book examines the UAE’s exceptional development and the ways in which this young country is making every effort to achieve excellence and upgrade its status from a regional economic centre into an international hub.

The UAE prides itself on its unique mix of cultures, its world-class infrastructure and its clear vision for the future, all of which the Indian community has played a unique role. Publishing My Vision; Challenges in the Race for Excellence, in Malayalam shares His Highness Sheikh Mohammed’s personal philosophy and political and economic vision and success with a greater number of people.

HH Sheikh Mohammed holds Dubai up as a shining example of extraordinary development based on excellent leadership, management, teamwork and timely decision-making.

First published in 2006 in Arabic, the book explores ways in which Dubai is striving to excel in services, tourism, the knowledge economy and creative human resources in order to realize its ambitious development goals.

The Malayalam edition of My Vision; Challenges in the Race for Excellence will present the vision of His Highness Sheikh Mohammed to a wide audience of over 570,000 Malayalis, from the south Indian state of Kerala, who live and work in the UAE.

As per the latest official statistics by the Government of Kerala, with nearly 35 per cent of the total overseas Malayalis living in the UAE, they form the largest population of expatriate Keralites. Malayalis have a strong cultural link with the Arab world, with trade and cultural relations existing between the two regions as early as the 7th Century AD.

A discerning and soulful poet, HH Sheikh Mohammed has published several poetry books, including Poems from the Desert (2009) and 40 Poems from the Desert (2011). Flashes of Thought, which expanded on the thoughts and ideas shared during his interactive question and answer session at the Government Summit in February 2013, was published earlier this year.

Flashes of Thought, which features a foreword by His Highness Sheikh Khalifa Bin Zayed Al Nahyan, President of the United Arab Emirates and Ruler of Abu Dhabi, develops HH Sheikh Mohammed’s leadership and governance ideas, and offers exceptional insight into his vision for the UAE.

The Malayalam edition of My Vision; Challenges in the Race for Excellence will be available soon at all leading book stores in the UAE.
