Saudis in UAE prepare for National Day festivities

The Saudi Embassy in the United Arab Emirates (UAE) is preparing a special event on Sept. 26 to mark the Kingdom’s 83rd National Day.
The event will bring together Saudi students, those working in the country and Gulf intellectuals and academics at the Dubai Culture and Science Center.
The celebration, under the auspices of Ambassador Ibrahim Saad Al-Ibrahim, is entitled “Humanitarian Homeland” and aims to spread awareness about the Kingdom's assistance to its own citizens and needy nations across the world.
Dr. Saleh Hamad Al-Suhaibani, cultural attaché in the UAE, said the event would be a celebration of the loyalty Saudis have to their country.
He praised Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques King Abdullah for taking care of orphans, the youth, the disabled and children of martyrs.
Dr. Khalid bin Hamad Anqari, the minister of higher education, is also supporting the celebrations, which “promotes loyalty and affiliation between the government and its nationals.”
The cultural attaché has prepared a special edition of the cultural magazine and a comprehensive list of the government’s humanitarian efforts for the occasion.
