Here We Start

Dear Sail Readers,
We launch this month our 21^st issue of Sail eMagazine. This issue coincides with a very special event to all Emiratis and everyone who lives within the UAE, and this event is the 40^th National Day for UAE. You cannot help but to feel extremely proud of what our country has reached to, and how the sense of belonging only increases more and more everyday. Through out this issue you will find many of Sail’s columnists expressing their feelings and joy with the national day, amongst other articles that targets issues from our society.
We are joined this month with a new columnist: Haif Zamam through her column: Sense and Sustainability. Haif Zamzam is a professional in an Abu Dhabi-based clean technology venture capital fund and the Head of Capital Management of the Abu Dhabi Centre for Language and Speech Disorders. Haif graduated from the American University of Sharjah with a degree in Finance and Economics. Through her column, Haif hopes to tackle issues related to society’s sense, its sustainability and everything in between.
