ABU DHABI, United Arab Emirates - Thursday, January 22nd 2015 [ME NewsWire]

Lt. General HH Sheikh Saif bin Zayed Al Nahyan, Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Interior, launched ‘The Ministry of Interior’s Award for Creative Policing Ideas – Policing Ideas.’ The Award will honor the top three ideas in fields that serve police work around the world.

In a statement, HH Sheikh Saif said: “The wise leadership and government of the UAE continuously strive to pursue new endeavors in creativity and leadership in a variety of fields. They also believe in the importance of teamwork on both local and global scales, to contribute to creating a more stable and secure world, and to the provision of prosperous opportunities for the people through the exchange of creative experiences and expertise. Thus, we shall honor those who have shown creativity and who have excelled in developing policing services for all nations.” 

“Our federal government firmly believes in the importance of working towards creating the ideal environment for continuous development and modernization based on the unremitting drive to be creative and innovative. Such an environment will thus empower further creative approaches and developments to meet the needs of the community, instill the spirit of cooperation, and build teamwork by transforming the routine culture of work into a creative culture that lives up to today’s requirements across all fields,” HH Sheikh Saif added.

HH Sheikh Saif expressed his hope that the Award would achieve its intended objectives, to the benefit of all mankind and of the ties that have been formed between nations and peoples: “We are all brothers in this great human society, and we aspire to achieve further progress and prosperity under the wings of the nation’s leaders. May God bless them, grant them success and keep them safe.”
