"We celebrate the national flag day to express our deep sense of belonging to the UAE and unswerving loyalty to our wise leadership; and to affirm national sovereignty and unity, and social cohesion. The annual celebration of this occasion instils in us the sense of pride in our flag and national identity, reaffirms our commitment to the approach established by the founding fathers, expresses pride in the remarkable national achievements accomplished under the banner of the Union, and drives us forward towards achieving growth and progress in line with the forward-looking vision of our wise leadership. On this occasion, we, at the Supreme Legislation Committee in the Emirate of Dubai, extend our heartiest congratulations and blessings to our wise leadership. We take this opportunity to renew our commitment to ensure the UAE flag continues to fly high and to support the UAE leadership by developing a more flexible and sustainable legislative system and a legislative structure that keeps pace with and supports the ambitious national development plans and aspirations.”
