"The future belongs to those who excel digitally,“ he said.



Commenting on the survey in a post on Twitter, Sheikh Mohammed said: "A while ago, the UN issued the E-government survey, which compares the smart services in 193 countries. Proudly, the UAE is the first in the Arab world, region and West Asia and the eighth globally in terms of e-Smart Services Index.“
