The Golden Coin

April 16, 2010 - 7:28 pm 5 Comments

Sometime there are stuff might not worth much as in a price, but worth millions for its sentimental value. As an example of that, the golden coin that I have which have a picture of shikeh Zayed Bin Sultan on one side and on  the other side it says the fifth anniversary of the United Arab Emirates 1971-1976.

I wonder how many people still have this coin which went for sale by the central bank of UAE on year 1976 in a very limited edition.

IRENA heading to Abu Dhabi

July 20, 2009 - 6:57 am No Comments

It has been a while since the confirmation of Abu Dhabi to host IRENA organization for renewable energy sources, but I have to mention that since I’m an Emarati and proud of that host.

For people who do not know IRENA, it is The International Renewable Energy Agency (IRENA) is an intergovernmental organization focusing on renewable energies. IRENA concentrates on alternative energies in both industrialized and developing countries.

Despite criticism that per capita it has the largest carbon footprint in the world, Abu Dhabi beat off Bonn and Vienna to host the organisation.
