Arab League confers the title of the First Patron of the Arab Media on Mohammed bin Rashid
Dubai, Dec 21, 2008 (WAM) - The Arab League announced that it has awarded Vice President and Prime Minister of UAE and Ruler of Dubai HH Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum the title of the First Patron of the Arab Media.
The announcement came at the concluding ceremony of the 4th Forum of Arab Producers held at the Arab League headquarters in Cairo in recognition of the efforts of Sheikh Mohammed in promoting the visual and print media as effective instruments of social development in the Arab world.
It is the first time an Arab leader wins this title, said the sources at the Arab League. This reflects the great appreciation the people of the media and the artists cherish in their hearts for the patronage and support Sheikh Mohammed has extended for media enabling them to play vital roles in social, scientific, cultural, economic and political development in the Arab world.
The media could mirror a civilised face of the Arab nation, effectively depicting their love for peace, art, culture, literature and humanitarian work, the sources noted.
