We pass daily on the Burj Khalifa, and we may not pay attention to it, even though it is the highest tower in the world, and it is one of the most famous landmarks in the world, and millions of people wish to take a memorial photo next to it, but they would like to see it with their own eyes even from afar, and this is very natural, familiarity goes surprising, But we do not want to lose surprise, admiration and pride in our accomplishments, so it must be maintained and preserved, and planning for the continuity of our superiority, so we do not make familiarity cancel the achievement, but rather lead us to another achievement greater than him.

Perhaps what motivated me to write this introduction is the passage of a truly global number and achievement, the passage of our honor upon us, we did not give him anything about it, we read it quickly, as if it was an ordinary news, while it is an achievement that hundreds of millions of people wish, and millions of others miss it, and many governments of the world seek it This remarkable figure is what Saeed Al Tayer, CEO and CEO of Dubai Electricity and Water Authority announced, when he said: “The Dubai Electricity and Water Authority has achieved a new global number in the average power outage per subscriber, as the authority recorded an average of 1.86 minutes outages per subscriber per year ».

Many did not care, and did not pay attention to this grace and this huge achievement. We are blessed in a state of well-being and prosperity that has surpassed many developed countries in all continents, and if we want to know the value of this achievement, let us compare it with other countries of the developed world, where the rate of power cuts for each Common in the European Union, for example, 15 minutes!

Less than two minutes, is the time that we lived in Dubai without electricity in a whole year, personally and perhaps thousands of others, do not mention when this minute and seconds were, and electricity is undoubtedly one of the most important components of a decent life, but we can say that there is no comfortable life without it, When we pride, praise, and cherish our government and our officials who provided it with this precision and distinction, we do not compliment them, but we owe it to them and thank them, especially as we live in a vast Arab country, and abundant with good and wealth that exceed in many countries what we have, but most of the people of this great country live from Without electricity at a rate between 6 and 20 hours a day, not annually!

The Emirates came, represented by the Dubai Electricity and Water Authority, ranked first in the world in obtaining electricity, and for the third year in a row, according to the Doing Business 2020 report issued by the World Bank, which measures the ease of doing business in 190 economies around the world. Complete in all indicators of the axis of access to electricity, including procedures for obtaining electricity, the cost criterion, and we are certainly not richer and more money and wealth than these 190 countries, but we are the best in having a leadership that raises the principle of citizens first, second and third, and exerts effort and money to provide a decent life For everyone who lives on In the soil of this country, can we turn to our accomplishments, look at the positive angles and excellence, and do not make familiarity forget the blessings, goodness, security and safety that we have in this noble state.
