I have been an admirer of His highness Sheikh Mohamoud Bin Rashid al Maktoum the ruler of Dubai and vice president of U.A.E since I came here .

He has not only metamorphised the city from a desert town into a modern gleaming metropolis where the world confers and things happen .

His vision has been futuristic and tempered by reason ,clarity, concern for the needy and to his subjects .

He is also a great sportsman and presents an image of a dashing head of the state

recently he won the endurance riding championship a gruelling 120 km horse ride

( wish our laloos /pinarayis do that !! )
