“The Government of the future works
24/7 and 365 days a year. It is as hos-
pitable as hotels, fast in delivering &
strong in its procedures. The Gov-
ernment of the future is innovative
and adaptive. It improves the quality
of life and helps people achieve their
happiness.”
These were the words of His High-
ness Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid
Al Maktoum through his Twitter
account when he announced the
mGovernment initiative. “Today, we
launched the ‘m-Government’ project
with the goal of providing all servic-
es via smartphones.” His Highness
tweeted.
Through mGovernment, we aim to
reach people instead of them reach-
ing us. Through their smartphones
we can make their lives easier. Our
deadline for the mGovernment pro-
ject is 2 years. We will never tolerate
any failure in achieving this goal.” His
Highness added.
On Twitter, many users expressed
their aspirations and hopes from
an mGovernment under the Arabic
hashtag (#
.)حكومة_الإمارات_الذكية
They
stressed that the UAE is not a tra-
ditional country but rather a country
that competes against itself.

ernment, transactions will be com-
pleted through SMS in line with the
UAE Vision. This is what His High-
ness Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid
has affirmed. The UAE is doing its
best for citizens’ convenience. Our
wise leadership realizes the value of
people.”
Rejal Khalifa (Khalifa’s men) who
tweets under (@BuAbdulla_11) said,
“In two years, the mGovernment will
deliver. A farewell party will be held
A country that’s ahead of its time,
a leadership that does miracles
What do Tweeps say
about mGovernment?
To be a pioneer, you have to dream big and accept
nothing less than the first place. You know that only Al-
lah is attributed with perfection, yet you do all your best
to achieve it.
In order to keep up with development, we must have young
hearts, strong will, active minds and an mGovernment. We know that tech-
nology is a tool and a means to simplify procedures and improve perfor-
mance. It is an attempt to have time on our side not against us. The lives and
philosophy of our leaders are our good examples.
