The Council praised the solid foundation and the achievements that paved the way towards the modern renaissance developed by the late Sheikh Khalid bin Muhammed Al Qasimi, may God have mercy on him.
The Council extended thanks and appreciation to His Highness Sheikh Dr. Sultan bin Muhammad Al Qasimi for his constant care, continuous guidance and paternalistic concern for his children through his pioneering initiatives, and to all the loyal people who contributed to achieving the modern renaissance over the last fifty years.
During its meeting, Sharjah Executive Council discussed a set of topics aiming at developing government services and following up on the implementation of the emirate's public policies.
