In February last year, Sheikh Mohammed announced the largest structural change in the UAE Government's history during a "Dialogue of the Future" on Twitter, which lasted three hours.
The unprecedented social media event was held during the World Government Summit.
At the time, Ministries were merged and positions were created, such as that for the Minister of State for Tolerance, a post held by Sheikha Lubna Al Qasimi and the Minister of State for Happiness, held by Ohoud Al Roumi.
