Sheikh Hamad bin Mohammed Al Sharqi, Supreme Council Member and Ruler of Fujairah, on Thursday issued a decision to establish Mohammed bin Zayed City near Fujairah City in recognition of the efforts of General Sheikh Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan, Crown Prince of Abu Dhabi and Deputy Supreme Commander of the UAE Armed Forces, in serving the nation, acknowledging his role in raising the name of the country and strengthening its position regionally and internationally.
