Coming from being just a small fishing village in the Arabian Gulf, Dubai is today one of the most cosmopolitan cities in the world, home to nearly 200 nationalities. You will live and breath a sense of possibility and innovation and experience memorable attractions and landscapes, from its magnificent city skyline with the world’s tallest building to the traditional banks of the Creek and from the unparalleled coastline to the beautiful desert. DAY I - Friday Dubai AND THE MUST-VISIT The warm sun and the vibe of this city will wake you up and get you ready to head off for your first Dubai adventure. Immerse yourself in the action by choosing to visit the majestic Burj Khalifa for a faboulous view of the city or explore the spice and gold Souks in the old town to have a more traditional feeling. Explore the Dubai Mall with its 1000 stores or just enjoy the morning by the beach. After this free morning, you will have the chance to try the iconic Dubai brunch at the luxury Burj al Arab, one of the tallest hotels in the world, designed with the shape of a sail, that became one of Dubai’s symbols and main tourist attraction. DAY I - Friday Jebel Jais ROAD TO THE DESERT THROUGH ITS THRILLING BENDS Less than 2 hours north from Dubai is the emirate of Ras Al Khaimah, surrounded by the fierce Hajar Mountains. Here you will experience a breathtaking drive through the bends of Jebal al Jais which is the UAE’ tallest pinnacle with its 6,200 feet. Leave the surge of the city behind as you wind your way up the mountain to enjoy an aperitif with a stunning view. In Ras al Khaima the nature is so diverse that outdoor enthusiasts will fall in love with the alternating landscapes, passing also from the sandy shores to the incredible red dunes of the desert, where you will spend a magical night. DAY II - Saturday Al Wadi Desert FROM WILD NATURE TO THE STUNNING LANDSCAPES OF HATTA Waking up in Al Wadi desert, you will find yourself surrounded by an incredible natural reserve and will be able to admire its wildlife such as oryx and gazelles directly from your room. A couple hours drive will then bring you to discover Hatta, a unique destination in the UAE, that is becoming popular among those who seek relaxation in a natural place thanks to the vast lake formed by Hatta Dam and its surrounding mountains. DAY II - Saturday Fujairah AND ITS PRISTINE BEACHES Departing from the desert of Ras al Khaima, we make our way to the Emirate of Fujairah, home to some of the nicest beaches in the UAE. Just a short ride north, we will reach Al Aqah beach, dominated by the rocky outcrop of “Snoopy Island” just offshore, also one of the country’s best-kept secrets. With its crystal clear waters and the beautiful coral reefs and marine life, a dive in the waters around Snoopy Island is truly one to be remembered. DAY III - Sunday A thousand and one nights experience It is time to drive toward an other desert, the magical Rub Al Khali, also known as “Empty Quarter”. This huge stretch of unbroken sand that has bested kings, adventurers, and nomads for thousands of years, earned the title of the largest uninterrupted desert on Earth with its fine golden and red sands which form dunes hundreds of feet high. On the way here, we will stop at the Emirates National Auto Museum in Abu Dhabi, where you will find a vast collection of off-road vehicles and classic American cars. DAY IV - Monday Abu Dhabi AND ITS GLINTING GLASS On our last day together, it is time to drive back to the coast and discover the Capital of the UAE. Abu Dhabi has a very diverse offering that makes it an attractive destination, from traditional heritage experiences, theme parks and historic landmarks, to nature activities and museums. The impressive Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque and the Louvre museum are just two of the many attractions that you will have the chance to visit. In this city you will learn how well old traditions can co-exist with modern sensibilities. And if you prefer some relaxing time, Abu Dhabi offers not only legendary service and luxury hospitality but also pristine white sand beaches and clear water, so you can make your day a once in a lifetime experience.

  • United Arab Emirates 2020 Human Rights Report
    UNITED ARAB EMIRATES 2020 HUMAN RIGHTS REPORT EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The United Arab Emirates is a federation of seven semiautonomous emirates with a resident population of approximately 9.7 million, of whom an estimated 11 percent are citizens. The rulers of the seven emirates constitute the Federal Supreme Council, the country’s highest legislative and executive body. The council selects a president and a vice president from its membership, and the president appoints the prime minister and cabinet. Sheikh Khalifa bin Zayed Al Nahyan, ruler of Abu Dhabi emirate, is president, although Crown Prince Mohammed bin Zayed Al Nahyan of Abu Dhabi exercises most executive authority. The emirates are under patriarchal rule with political allegiance defined by loyalty to tribal leaders, leaders of the individual emirates, and leaders of the federation. A limited, appointed electorate participates in periodic elections for the partially elected Federal National Council, a consultative body that examines, reviews, and recommends changes to legislation and may discuss topics for legislation. The last election was in October 2019, when appointed voters elected 20 Federal National Council members. Citizens may express their concerns directly to their leaders through traditional consultative mechanisms such as the open majlis (forum). Each emirate maintained a local police force called a general directorate, which was officially a branch of the federal Ministry of Interior. All emirate-level general directorates of police enforced their respective emirate’s laws autonomously. They also enforced federal laws within their emirate in coordination with each other under the federal ministry. The federal government maintained federal armed forces under the Ministry of Defense for external security.

  • United Arab Emirates & Oman
    Big Five Presents United Arab Emirates & Oman UAE & Oman offer an unexpected cornucopia of contrasts that when taken together mean an unforgettable vacation experience. From the dazzling gem of sophistication that is Dubai, to the cosmopolitan capital city of Abu Dhabi, to Umm al-Qaiwain’s long sweeps of beautiful beaches, the United Arab Emirates (UAE) has quickly become a star in the realm of luxury destinations. Seven emirates – Abu Dhabi, Dubai, Sharjah, Ajman, Umm al-Qaiwain, Ras al-Khaimah and Fujairah – joined together in 1971 to form a constitutional federation. Although most of the country is desert, it still offers vividly contrasting landscapes, from the Empty Quarter, the largest sand desert in the world, to lush oases, rocky mountains and fertile plains. UAE occupies a large sweep of land along the southeastern tip of the Arabian Peninsula, with Qatar to the west, Saudi Arabia to the south and west, and Oman to the north and east. The capital and the largest city of the federation, Abu Dhabi, is located in the emirate of the same name. Although UAE is known widely for its oil, wealth, shopping and sophistication, the country also has a quieter side that can be experienced in the desert of the Bedouin or the centuries-old neighborhoods, mosques and markets of Dubai. The cultural capital of the country is Sharjah, where visitors gain a glimpse of the past and discover opportunities for authentic interactions with people from fish markets to date souqs. The Sultanate of Oman on the southeast coast of the Arabian Peninsula shares a border with the UAE as well as Saudi Arabia and Yemen to the southwest.

The Strait of Hormuz is a narrow body of water that separates the Persian Gulf from the Gulf of Oman, through which 20% of the world’s oil passes annually. The UAE, seven emirates that work under a federalist structure, also is an important hydrocarbon producer in its own right with the world’s seventh largest known oil reserves and the eleventh largest known natural gas fields. The UAE allows both the U.S. and France to operate military bases in the country from where the two countries support their military activities in Afghanistan and elsewhere in the Middle East. Political Seven former members of what was known in the 19th century as the Trucial or Pirate Coast currently comprise the United Arab Emirates (UAE). In order of size, the emirates are: Abu Dhabi, Dubai, Sharjah, Umm al Qaywayn, Ajman, Al Fajayrah, and Ras al Khaymah. Ras al Khaymah joined the UAE in February 1972 after the other six states agreed on a federal constitution the year before. The UAE, with its capital in Abu Dhabi, is a federation with specified powers delegated to the central government and all other powers reserved to the emirates. Due to the prosperity of the country, most of its inhabitants are content with the current political system.

Firms Practice and Innovation Management: Case of Fujairah Emirate, United Arab Emirates Ahmed Zain Elabdin Ahmed, Gyanendra Sisodia* College of Business Administration, University of Science and Technology of Fujairah, United Arab Emirates. *Email: [email protected] Received: 08 December 2019 Accepted: 05 February 2020 DOI: https://doi.org/10.32479/ijefi.9088 ABSTRACT Innovation management has received a lot of attention in the last few decades, from a vital determinant of the global competitiveness of nations over the coming decade to the primary driver of economic progress and well-being. Many countries over the world have adopted national strategic roadmaps to foster innovation and enhance its economic impact to boost productivity and growth. The United Arab Emirates (UAE) came forward with the launch of the National Innovation Strategy in 2014. Hence, this paper has investigated the strategic importance of innovation management as a need for change and firms practices in one of the UAE Emirates (Fujairah Emirate). In doing so, the paper has sought to understand whether the concept of innovation management is featured in the UAE Company’s culture and strategic plans or whether the management of the business firm is highly committed to innovation management and what an essential driver for UAE to engage in innovation management. To investigate this problem, a qualitative case study methodology is used to collect and analyze the data. Results indicate that there is a clear line of innovation management strategies in UAE and business firms in Fujairah Emirates response to concerns by integrating innovation management into business structure and systems.
