He says what he always does, and he does what he says, he has been since his inception, and since he assumed the first official position, this is the faith of His Highness Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, may God protect him, his statements are not for media consumption, nor are they for the purpose of propaganda, and he does not aim to garner votes Voters increase the dose of wishful thinking, then turn against those who voted for him, just as the politicians in the West and non-West do, who are only good at the art of beautiful ornate speech and lack the real action that benefits the people, not the interests of those who have interests!

He loves achievements, loves his people, his country and society, and his vision is clear and explicit. He only wants to elevate the homeland, raise the name of the state high, ensure development and progress, and consolidate knowledge and knowledge as a locomotive for comprehensive development that achieves the comfort and prosperity of the people, and is concerned with nothing more than consolidating security and stability for all Who lives on this generous land.

So whoever is his biggest concern, and the most important of his goals, he has no time but to work, and every word that he says and promises to his people, he must implement it, this is how people have become accustomed to him for many years, so he never broke a promise he made to himself!

In 2014, His Highness Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum tweeted, saying: “Today we announce our project to send the first Arab and Islamic probe to the planet Mars, arriving in the year 2021. Our goal is to provide new knowledge contributions to humanity.” Many doubted his ability to support a project like this. And success in it, and many believed that the matter was nothing more than a passing tweet that would not be achieved, as their small minds did not comprehend the vision, persistence and will of this man, whose ambitions had no limits, and what prompted them to do that, also, is the difficulty of the goal this time, as Mars eluded major countries It is classified internationally as "great" countries, so how can Muhammad bin Rashid compete with this country in a difficult, complicated and expensive stadium like space, and even at the farthest point in the universe!

It seemed like an extremely difficult bet, because at that time the UAE did not have a space agency, nor planetary scientists, and it had just launched its first satellite, and according to all the data of that year, the mission is almost impossible, but it is not like that for Mohammed Bin Rashid, they were preoccupied with skepticism and spreading frustration, and he was preoccupied with his difficult goal, the new challenge, and the promise he made, work began, established specialized scientific institutions, and the Emirates Space Agency appeared, and the sons and daughters of the Emirates began to work, under his constant supervision and follow-up, after the passage of six Only years ago, tests began on the probe, which was completely designed in his country, and in a bright clean room in Dubai, where engineers and engineers worked to test the probe, which is comparable to the size of a car, before shipping it to the "Tanegashima" Space Center in Japan, and launched from it to travel 493 million kilometers Towards deep space, and it successfully enters the orbit of Mars, and achieves a historic achievement for the Arabs, so that the UAE provides a great service to science and knowledge, and to all international research centers and scientific studies.

On the day before yesterday, Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum tweeted a very short and very influential sentence, a sentence of three words, in which he summarized everything, and responded with it to every doubter, the heart of his people, his lovers, his friends and loyal Arabs, and the tongue of every hatter and hatred were silenced, three Words summarized the 493 million-kilometer march, in which he said: “The mission was accomplished successfully.” .. Yes, the mission succeeded, and Mohammed bin Rashid fulfilled his promise, and succeeded as he always succeeds, and he has proven that his words must be transformed into real actions, so he definitely does what he says .. and he says what he does.
