Dubai Museum of the Future Foundation hosts leadership delegation



DUBAI // The Dubai Museum of the Future Foundation hosted a delegation from the Expo 2020 Leaders programme on Wednesday.

Saif Al Aleeli, chief executive of the foundation, told the group that the museum was established to support domestic policies for the future.

“Dubai Museum of the Future Foundation aims to adopt creative ideas and launch innovative initiatives to contribute to the building of a knowledge-based economy,” he said.

The delegation was briefed on the “Mostaqbal Portal”, which will publish studies, research, articles and other materials related to science and technology.

The foundation was formed in August last year by Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid, Vice President and Ruler of Dubai.

Real estate tokenisation project

Dubai launched the pilot phase of its real estate tokenisation project last month.

The initiative focuses on converting real estate assets into digital tokens recorded on blockchain technology and helps in streamlining the process of buying, selling and investing, the Dubai Land Department said.

Dubai’s real estate tokenisation market is projected to reach Dh60 billion ($16.33 billion) by 2033, representing 7 per cent of the emirate’s total property transactions, according to the DLD.

Abdul Jabar Qahraman was meeting supporters in his campaign office in the southern Afghan province of Helmand when a bomb hidden under a sofa exploded on Wednesday.

The blast in the provincial capital Lashkar Gah killed the Afghan election candidate and at least another three people, Interior Minister Wais Ahmad Barmak told reporters. Another three were wounded, while three suspects were detained, he said.

The Taliban – which controls much of Helmand and has vowed to disrupt the October 20 parliamentary elections – claimed responsibility for the attack.

Mr Qahraman was at least the 10th candidate killed so far during the campaign season, and the second from Lashkar Gah this month. Another candidate, Saleh Mohammad Asikzai, was among eight people killed in a suicide attack last week. Most of the slain candidates were murdered in targeted assassinations, including Avtar Singh Khalsa, the first Afghan Sikh to run for the lower house of the parliament.

The same week the Taliban warned candidates to withdraw from the elections. On Wednesday the group issued fresh warnings, calling on educational workers to stop schools from being used as polling centres.
