Abu Dhabi Crown Prince and Deputy Supreme Commander of the UAE Armed Forces General Sheikh Mohammed bin Zayed Al Nahyan yesterday (May 18) witnessed the inauguration of the General Secretariat's website.

The ceremony was also attended by Sheikh Mohammad bin Zayed, Sheikh Hamed bin Zayed, Mansoor bin Zayed, Sultan bin Tahnoon, Sultan bin Khalifa, Mohammad Al  Bawardi and Dr Mugheer Al Khele.

“The launch of the eCouncil and the General Secretariat's website is a true reflection of our wise leaders' vision. It strengthens the ideology of the modern nation that relies on the use of advanced technology and multi-benefit electronic systems which results in time-saving and faster results,” said Al Bawardi.

Al Bawardi also noted that under these wise orders, the General Secretariat has put together great efforts to advance its services and achieve international quality standards in order to reach the desired goal of having Abu Dhabi become one of the five best governments in the world.

Al Bawardi stressed that the General Secretariat was able in a short period to execute a number of electronic systems to serve and support  the members of the Executive Council as well as the employees of the General Secretariat.

He pointed out that the launch of the website will enable viewers to review all activities, achievements, decisions and other important information of the Executive Council.

One of the major achievements of the  General Secretariat’s  website is the official Gazette, which publishes local legislations of Abu Dhabi in a monthly basis by the General Secretariat of the Executive council.

It also publishes other important services which strengthen the concept of communications, such as 'Government for you', 'Your Suggestions' and 'Media Page' which portrays official photos to be used in press releases, the General Secretariat logo and branding issues. – TradeArabia News Service
