economic awareness

October 10 2022

God Almighty blessed the Arabian Peninsula with good and generous peoples who adopted tolerance as a way of life to coexist with themselves and be tolerant of others. (And as you will be given to you). And because we are proud of our kindness and generosity, God has blessed us with rulers who manage the rudders with dignity and generosity. Praise be to God for the blessing of security and safety that facilitated our development to be today among the most powerful countries in the world in the five basic areas in the strength of states: Sober politics, confident economics, just law, solid defense, and purposeful media. Despite the failure to achieve some of the objectives of the Arab media, the gains of the Arab countries from the governmental media heritage may contribute to the development of the Arab media to be able to play a role in raising the awareness of the community to preserve the many blessings.

During the face of the Corona crisis, rumors questioned the ability of Arab countries to provide food and medicine for their people, so the response of His Highness Sheikh Mohammed bin Zayed Al Nahyan, may God protect him, was (don’t worry). We are still rejoicing in the availability of food and medicine. As the world entered another difficult turning point during the Russian-Ukrainian war, the features of another crisis began threatening to bias the world into two warring poles and a long war in which we have no significance in. It is worth mentioning here that the Arab countries today are not what they were a century ago. Arab countries have become superpowers that influence and are affected by the global economy. Examples of attempts to influence Arab countries include recent calls by representatives of the American Democratic Party through the media to demand a halt to the sale of American weapons to Saudi Arabia to urge OPEC + to increase production, and these demands are considered strong media influence factors that are not matched by a conscious media force. As usual, “Great Saudi Arabia” dealt with these cheap demands with a calm, conscious and firm will that assures the world that OPEC + will keep going to achieve its gools.

However, the continuation of the Arab media as an entertainment tool that is aligned behind weak Western media devices will not strengthen the economic gains of the Arab countries. Rather, the Arab media agencies should reconsider the creation of an influential Arab media alliance that can educate the Arab peoples to preserve grace and not go too far in extravagance and direct investments towards Arab countries to enhance their promising economic status. It is necessary to strengthen our Arab Union with a developed economy and to prepare a generation of young people who are aware of the changes in the world. God save our rulers.
