but I would like to apologize for the
organizer I would like to go ahead and
do it in Arabic language I’ll start this
page only with English can you see my
name is Vint mutter in my life there I
had many opportunities and Hum Dil and I
was lucky enough to change many things
in my life which affected positively the
surrounding environment and when I say
environment I mean human being as well
as other type of invite other type of
other elements of environments my name
is Miriam Hamid madara Hamid and if one
of my mission I have my plans since 2012
2050 I have my plan and I know what I
have to do and so far I was lucky enough
to achieve all my plan on the same
deadline if not earlier and when one of
my clan in 2000 before 2050 if I will be
alive that all our names in the official
documentation will be changed to be
called Miriam Bentham Hamad bin Fatima
where our mothers will be mentioned as
well so I would like your support to
start from today to make sure our mother
name will be mentioned there and maybe
some of you will not agree which I
respect but I believe our mother she
deserved that that we should be named if
we will change anything in history as
emeriti women I go and I meet soft other
woman from different part of the world
and one of the main topic which will be
started the discussion with is the
competition between female and male and
how they are not well treated or not
taking care of one again I’m talking
personally on my personal level as an
Emirati woman we were lucky enough to be
in she in Zipes country
and we were so much lucky to have a good
gentleman surrounding us so I would like
today through this positive conference
and forum to pass a very well-defined
thank you message to all good gentlemen
in my life who had the biggest support
and biggest effect on me being where I
am I do admit my mother had played a big
role in developing my skills especially
personal and behavior wise while my
father and my brother my husband my
leaders they had the biggest effect on
other dimension of my career development

Forza I Whitney comfy mon-sat PID let’s
move men in the air played a her in her
hokum any one of us whenever he will be
in any leader position leadership
position or challenge they have to make
sure that what he got
he will maintain it and he will keep it
for the rest of his team this what
happens so before I leave the ministry I
made sure there were thirteen women in a
leadership position in Ministry of
Health and now they are doing that at
home the lion even some of them they are
performing much better than their
colleagues male colleagues in in in
ministries in 2009 hamdulillah again I
was promoted by His Highness Sheikh
Mohammed to be the first woman as a
director general in Dubai government
member of the Executive Council it was
another big challenge and all of them
we’re made surrounding me what I noticed
unfortunately in our environment our
leaders they believe so much in women
but not almonds they believe in women
and always they try to put you in a
challenging position only to try to
bring you down but believe me as a woman
and as a Marathi and with all the
positive messages I got today from my
our previous speaker I decided to
continue it was not easy at all it was
too difficult every day I need to face a
new challenge but again with the team
would insist I was insisting that I will
be able to do it and I’ve done it one of
the occasion where I will never forget
when I was the director general of Dubai
in the Community Development Authority
in one of the meetings where we need to
go and finalize a decision about the
orphans in Dubai especially those who
are with would not known families so
when we went to the meeting and in the
meeting all of them were male I was the
only female in that place I thought I am
lucky but unfortunately when I sat on
that place and we start to discuss about
very sensitive topic I saw the let’s say
unhealthy communication the way the
other male in the meeting walking they
were emphasizing on one subject
indirectly that these children are in
the street or these child children they
don’t have parents simply because a
woman she did a mistake with another
male who was only male not a gentleman
and she ended up having this baby and no
one of them criticized that male who was
the reason of this baby to come the lady
won’t be able to do it alone I’m not
defending that not good behavior from
some woman but when we talk about a
human being in any environment
we shouldn’t criticize women or men we
have to criticize the situation and make
sure to find a solution how we can make
sure things can go in a better
people will have their integrity in a
better way especially the new children
so when we have this discussion I had to
stop it somewhere but I have to do it in
a very polite way which doesn’t conflict
with our culture I mean our culture is
sensitive but we’re very well defined
it’s built on a years of experience from
our grandfathers so what I’ve done I
didn’t to stop the discussion by asking
them stop it don’t blame the women don’t
talk about that lady please feel sorry
for this children I asked one of the
guys there I said can you imagine
yourself one day where the evil was
surrounding you and for you found a very
pretty lady in one corner of a place
where nobody can sees you and you’ve
done that mistake and this boy was your
son what you would be doing for this
would you sit and blame him or when he
will grow up he will go to school and he
will be in the same school of your son
they look like each other and got
forbidden something happened the DNA
test should be done and they knew that
he is your son where you at what time
you will feel shy you will feel shy that
you left your son to be in such position
in not knowing who’s you’re his father
or to feel shy that you were the reason
of this big mistake in life so the
discussion was going in a different way
and before I leave I did although I was
in charge of that meeting I didn’t ask
them to follow my decision I said let’s
have a break for half an hour
and we’ll come back and we will see how
we were tagging this tag of the subject
proudly saying today al hamdulillah
rabbil alameen we have all the children
in Dubai City our hamdullah
in in a different they are under
umbrella of a policy and procedure which
protects them from everything in
environment to protect them in the
community and they are living like any
other child in the school with will no
name with a particular
or a family where they are nominated by
their parents name not not the
biological parents somebody will take
them and adopt them and they will be in
a good condition what makes me what
bring me in this subject and emphasizing
on again as a woman we in the Arab world
and lots of other woman they always ask
for women’s right women’s right I’m
against that we don’t woman’s right and
we don’t want to be equal to Allah to be
to get all the privilege like our male
brother we would like to be treated well
respected and to be given what we need
not extra as a woman I’m proud to be an
American is protected will looked after
and she has a great support from all the
gentlemen’s in the bar in UAE and I’m
talking about to by itself because where
I had all type of support is started
with His Highness Sheikh from him Adela
Avila so as a woman I still we want
somebody to open the door for us ladies
first
as a woman I still want to have the
two-month maternity leave as a woman I
still need to take my I still liked me
as a woman I don’t know I’m I would
apologize that I’m not sure I’m not able
to focus very well because just now I
had I met one of the speaker which
affected me so much I don’t know what
his name Shoesmith no dr. Ahmed Imran
God bless them you know and when I want
to talk about my achievement I feel they
are nothing in front of somebody like a
muhammad imran well they only a young
semester now I see it could you Lisa
Huerta will yourself now your NSHE
domine who say Allah Allah Allah with
Allah anymore guide our America far
ahead and fill speech Marty yeah as a
woman it’s there is it’s a very big
challenge to be a woman especially in
this part of the world with all the
positive and
part of it as a woman it’s a big
challenge to be a daughter and nine in a
family with nine siblings we were five
sister and four brothers and it was
another talent that we were I was number
five in my family our elder brother his
name is Ali
he was Lexie say it at home but we were
blessed enough to have our Father he was
always reminding abroad my brother le le
madam Andy hey Mark Hasse fell beneath
my domine hey an elbow home went to homo
boom yoga mat with her so we were so
much protected at the home under the
wing of my father so it was a challenge
again to make sure that you deserve that
trust that you deserve that protection
so we had to do our best to deserve his
support and whatever our father gave it
to us
again this is another channel to be a
sister of a brother called daddy javea
life father now I understand why he used
to protect us we’ll shake on and raved
everything available especially after my
father he passed away a liar Hema and he
was so tough more than my father before
I get married and I have my daughter she
is seven years old Sarah I didn’t
understand how precious is your yours
how precious is how difficult it is to
take care of a precious things in your
life like your sisters your brother and
now my daughter now I give my brother
Ali all the execuse when he used to tell
me Miriam Abe my sweet other infidels
you in my streets here in Rio hey babe
hey Naresh Connie girl yep who up the
rear take honey how will he mean if a
theatre meanwhile I this year Kenneth
Maggio finished Emma who can last have
metallic the more challenging part of my
relation with my brother Ali that I
deserve again has a trust I asked him to
open a door one of the door for me and
he opened it and he was watching me
following me in each step and
alhamdulillah
very soon he opened both door for me and
he asked me to fly away
to fly not only to walkin in in the and
the in the career and in my in my way
again there is another challenge to be
as a wife as a woman I was proudly
telling you my my husband he is number
27 of my proposal so I got 26 proposal
and Cara
he was number 27 he was lucky
do you think I always tell him that you
are lucky that I said yes to you but
believe me i was the luckiest the
luckiest woman in the world to have
Karim as my husband because of that I
really tell him thank you very much for
all your support to me when he came the
previous proposal whoever comes to
propose for me I was asking them one
condition

say thank you for all the gentlemen’s in
our life because of that I always insist
that as a woman we have to be so
grateful with all the positive things in
our life we have to be grateful for all
the gentlemen’s who surrounded us in our
life and they were the main reason of
our success again as a mother this was
another challenge I was blessed enough
with my in-laws nuclear material been a
naughty girl an immense Elberton

karate let’s say we team up insanity
Claire doesn’t Kunene Zedekiah
there is big difference between a smart
wife and wife for a stop to be a smart
wife you have to make sure that you are
smart enough in your social life I was
smart to make sure that I don’t want a
private house I want to live with my
in-laws
simply because I know that I very soon
I’ll go abroad and continue my study and
genetic research and genetic disease so
I was blessed with my in-laws my my
mother-in-law she takes care of my
daughter Sarah and she makes sure to
teach her all the good things one of the
things which I’m also proud of my
daughter Sarah again she is seven years
old

challenge
I have to go frequently to Japan for my
PhD I’m doing my PhD in genetic disease
for the past two years and seven month
so I have to go so frequently talk to
Japan and one of the trips which again
debate the whole plan of my study when I
came back it was the first time I go
away I came back to home and my daughter
she was calling me
hallo aunty it was so painful she cared
she still me hello Yeti
it was so painful that time that my
daughter she called me auntie and when
my mother-in-law she came and she said
Oh Maya it was so painful at that time I
decided to make sure I give my daughter
the right amount
of support and all the social bond which
she deserve it
believe me it’s not easy to be a woman
in every corner there is a big challenge
but you have to be make sure that you
acquired all the skills which will help
you to go ahead with that inshallah
being a woman that’s another big
challenge I did my leadership from
Harvard in leadership and during the
course of leadership there was no single
lecture about leadership in women or
women with leadership and through
through my career I noticed there is a
big difference of my decision and all
those decision let’s say the wrong
decision which I took in life especially
in career was related to my period to my
menstruation as you know as any woman
she would have five days to seven days
per month under the control of estrogen
estrogen is a hormone which the lady
will have it in a very high level and
she would have a period lanessa fear

when ad on in
this gathering I would like to pass a
message for all women’s and leadership
or in a training or in a position where
they need to take a decision please make
sure to be aware and full oriented about
your mini situation if you are in the
first day second day or third day try to
postpone any decision try to take it as
soon you will feel you are much better
and the bloating is less than your body
again see as a woman it’s a big
challenge in every corner there is a new
challenge for you and as a woman you
have to be like a drop of water you have
to be so soft
nice voice I do remember till today we
were not allowed to raise our voice at

I would say we got a I believe in a I
saw traffic a bit in heterogeneous
terribly messy room con hakuna been
delivered to my staff attorney for the

the storm is a theory of one so it’s
very important to be aware that you are
a woman you need to be solved you need
to take care of yourself
you need to be as like drop of water and
you need to be transparent how are you
money mafia LM Nasser aha there is
nothing better than being transparent be
yourself till today I have no locked

Doreen in a setting of such we had more
of and you felt that at that time you
cannot be transparent go out don’t go
forward and that a step
make sure and I’m telling you that it is
not the right way there is something
fishy or wrong is going on so try to be
transparent as much as possible you can
maintain your feminity and maintain your
past through your career what we are
very essential for life sustainability
so make sure everybody will know that
you are very precious let the drop of
water and again as a drop of water we
have to be and make sure that we are
strong as you know a drop of water what
does what it could do to a stone it can
you know how the drop of water is strong
enough and persisting on the same side
it can do something which an ordinary
stick cannot do this is one of the
achievement which I’m so proud of and I
would like to share it with you going
back in 2006 I was so so much involved
in a project called UAE free of Della
Samia 2012 and brought I came to this
point simply because I knew that some
somewhere like Cyprus for the past 23
years
there is no single child born with hello
Samia simply because they did that
awareness and they made sure there is a
screening before anybody gets married on
their land so at that time nothing was
there and I’m proudly saying that I was
one of the reason that the premarital
investigation law and legislation is
approved by the Cabinet and I was
honored enough to be at that time in the
cabinet meeting where they approved this
legislation I didn’t do it alone
but I started and I had a very good team
who believed in what we are doing and
now nobody’s getting married in united
arab emirate unless they will be
screened for common genetic disorder we
started in 2007 and i wanted only 3,600
sample and volunteered to come forward
to be examined to see the level of that
genetic disease in UAE imagine i for the
deadline on 12/12/2012 even before 2009
i might
at 3,600 was the need but I’m so proud
to say that so far we were able to
screen eleven thousand two hundred and
eight and with that we it’s it’s a
sample from all over United Arab
Emirates from Abu Dhabi till fujairah
how much we saved money for the country
and how many cases we were able to
diagnose as you see among the eleven
thousand two hundred and eighty-one
sample four hundred seventy eight of
them were affected we’re carrying the
disease gene of thalassemia which will
increase the chance of their new
generation to be affected with the
disease
2210 to with sickle cell 219 with g6pd
and that cost us only four million and a
half then I went to Dubai Health
Authority I told him can you tell me in
2007 the cause of managing one of these
cases how much cost you the cost was
thirty-five thousand eight hundred fifty
I multiplied it by those numbers which
are which we dot knows it won’t be
suffering anymore you can imagine how
much we saved money for the country and
this is annual based and not considering
the other cost of social support as well
we said 32 million dirhams
while we spent only four million and a
half this is another achievement which
we were able to do this is one of the
slide which were I will end my
presentation with I do apologize I took
2-3 minutes but I was under the effect
of dr. Abdullah in the beginning we were
honored enough this year our Center it’s
located in Dubai it’s mainly about
genetic research
Serena sadaqa jariya and Rogers idler
Hema and our president has Highness
Sheikh in Hanyang we do all the tests
free of charge for whoever living in UAE
they need to have a residential visa and
His Highness will take care of all the
cost of this screening so we’ve done
those screening and our lab is
recognized by three international
Research Centre and in one of the
meetings in conference I was talking
about our lab in more
scientific presentation where I was
honoured enough to have five Nobel
laureates
an interest to come and visit our small
lab this even not come in a dream you
know you can have one or two but not
five of them they came all the way and
they visited our small lab I will end up
but I will end this talk with their
comment they spend an hour in our small
Center and they said you AEG da is a
spot of light in Arab world and in
genetic research and five of them they
sign on the guestbook that’s all what I
can say and I do apologize if I was not
focused in the beginning thank you very much
