The Kanoo Group marked the United Arab Emirates' 54th National Day (Eid Al Etihad) with a heartfelt celebration at its Dubai headquarters, honoring the nation's founding fathers and its remarkable journey of progress.
Top management, division managers, and staff across The Kanoo Group came together in a powerful display of unity to celebrate the UAE's extraordinary achievements. The annual celebration showcased true Emirati hospitality, featuring traditional Arabic cuisine, arts, and cultural crafts that reflected the rich heritage of the nation.
A Message from the Heart
Director Maha Kanoo led the commemorative event with a moving keynote address that captured what many feel but rarely express so eloquently.
"We are so blessed to be living in the UAE," Miss Maha began. "We must take a moment to acknowledge this nation's extraordinary achievements. This is the best place to live. You can walk out at night, even leave your door open—and you are safe. I thank the UAE for providing us a safe environment, especially for women."
Her words resonated deeply with the diverse audience gathered before her. "I thank everyone here who works with us. We appreciate you. You are our family. The UAE has provided countless opportunities for growth and prosperity to people from all walks of life. This remarkable progress in such a short time deserves our deepest gratitude and recognition."
Drawing on her family's long history in the region, Miss Maha added a personal reflection: "I am so happy to be living in the UAE. Our family came here in the 1970s, so we saw all these things happening, and it is beautiful. If Sheikh Zayed and Sheikh Rashid could see what is happening today, they would be so proud of what the UAE has become."
Miss Maha's words set the tone for celebrations that rippled across The Kanoo Group's entire network, reminding everyone that unity is not just a theme—it is how we live and work every day.
