In line with the vision of His Highness Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Vice President and Prime Minister of the UAE, Ruler of Dubai, in the continuous effort to provide a decent life for citizens and enhance their social and familial stability within the citizens' housing program, and under the directives of His Highness Sheikh Hamdan bin Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Crown Prince of Dubai and Chairman of the Executive Council, President of the Dubai Supreme Committee of Development and Welfare of Citizens, Dubai Municipality has completed the distribution of 3,200 residential plots to citizens in Dubai.
