Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates - Tuesday, November 4th 2014 [ME NewsWire]
During
the Flag Day celebration organized by 999 Magazine under the theme of
“The United House”, the staff members of the magazine expressed their
deep pride in the flag - a symbol of loyalty and belonging. The
celebration was held at the Abu Dhabi Theatre in Breakwater.
Colonel
Thani Butti Al Shamesi, Head of the Training Department at Abu Dhabi
Police, Member of the 999 Magazine Development Committee, said that the
Flag Day celebration embodies the proclamation of His Highness Sheikh
Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, UAE Vice President, Prime Minister and
Ruler of Dubai (May Allah Protect him): “We are one nation, with one
constitution, one flag, one army, and one President- Sheikh Khalifa Bin
Zayed”.
“The theme ‘The United House’ was inspired by the words of
General HH Sheikh Mohammed bin Zayed Al Nahyan, Crown Prince of Abu
Dhabi and Deputy Supreme Commander of the UAE Armed Forces: ‘The UAE is
united through its people. The UAE is a strong fortress and with
reassured hearts we know that our homeland is fine. May Allah bless
everyone and congratulations to all upon this valued occasion,’” said
Colonel Al Shamesi.
Colonel Khaled Al Shehi, brother of the martyr
Tareq al Shehi, attended the celebrations. Colonel Al Shehi expressed
his deep pride for Flag Day, as it symbolizes the sense of loyalty and
giving towards a homeland honored by its sons.
According to
Lieutenant Colonel Awad Saleh Awad Saeed, Editor-in-chief of 999
Magazine, the magazine organized this ceremony in order to honor the
families of police martyrs. “This festive occasion honors and
acknowledges the families of the police martyrs who have so gallantly
sacrificed their life for the sake of this nation, its higher
leadership, and for the generous people,” he said.
“999 magazine and
others have come together to celebrate national events like today under
the guidance of the police leadership. The fraternization takes place in
a bid to achieve the vision of the police leadership – a vision that
introduces the concept of a community-police relationship,” Lieutenant
Colonel Saeed said.
The event featured the movies ‘The Flag of My
Country’ and ‘Tareq Al Shehi: Martyr of the Nation’, and a word from the
magazine’s strategic partner. The poem ‘Rhymes for the Love of our
Homeland’ was recited and followed by the performance of patriotic songs
