Marching towards a vision
“The criterion of success in the areas of human development such as health, education, culture and sports etc is not measured solely by the scale of investment (in which there would be no dereliction on our part, God willing), but the lesson lies in working efficiently and faithfully and in the outputs and outcomes,” says the Emir, HH Sheikh Tamim Bin Hamad Al Thani, in his first annual address to the Shura Council. Taking forward his father’s vision, the Emir lays emphasis on execution and tangible development outcomes. Much has been achieved in setting up systems, institutions, programmes and training. Though it is still a work in progress, the success in some fields is commendable.
