Sharjah 24 – WAM: His Excellency Abdullah bin Mohammed bin Butti Al Hamed, Chairman of the National Media Authority, emphasised that social media platforms are spaces for calm dialogue and thoughtful discourse, reflecting societal awareness and shaping opinion through responsible language. In times of crisis, words can serve as either bridges of understanding or sparks of chaos.

Emirati values reflected online

In a tweet on X, His Excellency Abdullah bin Mohammed bin Butti Al Hamed described Emirati social media activity as the living pulse of the nation’s values, where every post and word represents trust, wisdom, and societal awareness. Amid attacks, rumours, and provocation, Emirati decorum remains steadfast, responding to insults with awareness, lies with truth, and noise with composure.

Every user as a national ambassador

He reminded Emirati tweeters of the guidance of UAE President His Highness Sheikh Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan, that each individual is an ambassador of their country, carrying the nation’s integrity in every post and stance. Following frameworks set by His Highness Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Vice President, Prime Minister and Ruler of Dubai, Emirati users are urged to be confident, balanced, and vigilant, preserving societal awareness, exposing falsehood, and writing online as they wish their country to be seen.
