• System focuses on talents in science, medicine, research
• U.A.E. prime minister announces the new system on Twitter

The U.A.E. government approved a new visa system designed to attract top foreign talents in fields such as medicine, science and research to the country, Prime Minister Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashed Al Maktoum said on Sunday.

“The United Arab Emirates is the land of opportunities,” Sheikh Mohammed said on Twitter after the cabinet meeting. Attracting top talents will “add to our economy and future,” he said. He didn’t provide further details.

Under the current law, the U.A.E. doesn’t offer permanent residency to foreign workers.

Sheikh Mohammed, who is also the vice president of the U.A.E. and the ruler of Dubai, ordered that committees be set up to identify “the vital sectors that will be open for specialized visas, and to draw a plan to attract the most notable, exceptional regional and international talents,” according to a statement carried by the official WAM news agency.

I really love this announcement.

Foreign policies aside, the UAE is moving in the right direction domestically.

The UAE is promoting the tolerance of non-Arab ethnicities and non-Muslim faiths among its population, especially among the younger generation Emiratis. School curriculums have been reformed in order to prepare the young Emiratis for a tolerant and globalized society. Hindu temples are being constructed across the UAE as well. Last but not least, the UAE has set up a tolerance ministry in order to promote an inclusive and harmonious globalized society.

Setting aside the UAE's questionable and controversial foreign policies in places like North Africa and Yemen, I think the UAE is, overall, heading in the right direction, especially with regard to its domestic policies.

The announcement of a new visa system is great news for talented foreigners who wish to seek greener pastures.

I think the next step for the UAE is to offer citizenship to its hardworking and upstanding expats.

If the UAE succeeds in implementing these domestic reforms, then the country will give rise to a multiracial and globalized generation of Emiratis in the coming years.
