Al Gergawi made the remarks on the occasion of the inauguration of the headquarters Dubai Future Accelerators by Shaikh Mohammed.

Shaikh Mohammed is a unique leader who loves driving these stages, and promotes his work teams to challenge themselves by raising the ceiling of ambition and expectations, he added.

"The UAE economic model has undergone key stages through which it adopted the trade model. As it moved to the service model, Shaikh Mohammed is building a new model based on the future through awareness about challenges so as to avoid them and identify opportunities to grasp them," Al Gergawi said "The instructions of Shaikh Mohammed and follow up of Shaikh Hamdan bin Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Crown Prince of Dubai and Chairman of the Board of Trustees of the Dubai Future Foundation, direct our governmental institutions to lead in the making of future within their sectors," Al Gergawi said.

The launch of Dubai Future Accelerators ushers in a government system that is commensurate with the requirements of the 21st century and harnesses opportunities of the fourth industrial revolution, he noted.

Jerusalem, May 17: The Chinese ambassador to Israel was found dead in his home north of Tel Aviv on Sunday, Israel's Foreign Ministry said.

No cause of death was given and Israeli police said it was investigating.

Du Wei, 58, was appointed envoy in February in the midst of the coronavirus pandemic. He previously served as China's envoy to Ukraine.

He is survived by a wife and son, both of whom were not in Israel.

Israel enjoys good relations with China.

The ambassador's death comes just two days after he condemned comments by visiting U.S. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo, who denounced Chinese investments in Israel and accused China of hiding information about the coronavirus outbreak.
