FNC is keeping pace with UAE’s renaissance, says Saqr Ghobash

Ghobash affirmed that the political empowerment programme announced by His Highness Sheikh Khalifa in 2005 has helped strengthen the FNC's role in achieving the aspirations of the Emirati people and anticipating their future over the next fifty years.. "Celebrating the 48th anniversary of the founding of the council coincides with a new era of women's empowerment during the current legislative term, in line with the decision of President His Highness Sheikh Khalifa to raise the representation of Emirati women in the FNC to 50 percent, which reflects the country's future direction and represents a significant achievement, making the UAE a global leader in female parliamentary representation," he further noted..
